When doing my research for a spring jacket recently, see here, I kinda fell for a jacket but it seemed to have been sold out in my size. It seemed perfect for my smarter end of spring jackets, so I was a little disappointed. A little sad.
Then when I optimistically popped back on the site later, voila, 2 were in stock!

So I pressed the button and
Taadaahhhh
Posh Spring Jacket
The quality is super and the linen colour is softly neutral. It's described as "soft white". M&S are doing some Ozone jeans in the same soft white. Together they would make an interesting casual "suit". Trouble is, the zip area is too short = muffin top. Shame.
The sleeves need to be shortened a tad but I did a quick reccie and that's looking do-able.
It reminds me of my jackets and looks of yore. It feels "me". The Younger Me.
In a good, un-muttonish/lamby way. In my view.
I have to say I feel pretty good in it! Do I look happy?
Now these pics do not present it in its best light. It could look a lot better. I just threw it over nothing in particular, yet I can already see that it going to be good with all colours of jeans, and it will take dresses and skirts up a notch.
You may notice I'm saying "will" rather than "would".
That's because I think this one's a keeper!
Do you have a go-to spring jacket?
Or are you hunting for a spring jacket too? Struck gold yet?
And do you sometimes wear/find something that transports you back to an Earlier You?
A la perchoine.
