Great piece: Herringbone jacket

Herringbone is great and it’s everywhere this Winter. Shopping over the weekend, I saw it on clothes and furnishings. It's a pattern I normally associate with men but it looks great on women for formal wear. I bought the jacket above in grey as that’s the most versatile for my wardrobe. I do hope it will come down in price though and I will buy it in some more adventurous shades like blue and green.

To wear a jacket modestly either pair it with a long knit with loose wide-leg trousers or wear it with a maxi skirt.

Sorry for being illiterate or whatever you would call it.

No problem Anon, I just feel silly encouraging sisters to go out and buy wool jackets when most of you are in the Northern Hemisphere. I just wanted to make it clear I am not crazy, its Winter down here in the South.

It's summer where I am too, but seeng this lovely jacket makes me (almost) look forward to winter. Oh, definitely get this in different colours when the sales come...I'd love to see it in lilac!
