The Style Post: River Island Floral Blazer

This weeks newest clothing crush is my floral blazer I picked up from River Island a few weeks ago. After seeing this on Lilys blog, I knew this would probably end up in my ever growing wardrobe and when I saw it in the flesh I picked it up and legged it for the till – silly in hind sight as no one else seemed overly fussed… I just looked like the words biggest dork!

I won’t lie, it’s crazy long on me, as are most items I own, but it’s perfect for autumn and fits nicely under my quilted jacket. Fingers crossed that this will carry over into spring too! This baby looks best as a statement piece with an all black outfit, think a slouchy black top and leggings for day time. But at night, I think this piece will really shine – black body con dress, black tights, black wedges. It spruces up a rather bland night time look with ease – potential Paris outfit? I think so!

If you fancy picking this up, it retails at around £35, and if you don’t want to look like a complete dork in a golumn/smeagle and the ring situation like me (10 points if you can name the film) then you can order it online here.

    This is PERFECT. I'm in desperate need of some new jackets/blazers to wear since i practically live in my leather jacket. Definitely buying this on pay-day!

    I like the floral blazer too. It gives ordinary blazers a new spin.
