I have had my eye on this material for a long time now, but was never brave enough until 2 days ago and voila: my latest outfit ; jacket and skirt a la Coco Chanel. At least that’s what I think, my husband says it looks rather like something his granny would wear ! What do you say????
boucle??? lining, interfacing and zip for the skirt

I kind of understand what your husband says, well my boyfriend would say exactely the same thing about any outfit that would come in 2 pieces… But I think it looks great :)

thank you mixtlii !
In the meantime, I have come to the conclusion that wearing both pieces separately probably looks better and more modern, so I have been doing just so ! Very much love the jacket with jeans, the material is just so cosy and warm, perfect for now !

My granny would never wear something like that, it’s quite sexy…!Perhaps he should clean his glasses!
