I have a thing for faux fur. I bought this coat when I was in sixth form - it's one of my very first vintage coats! It's surprisingly not a warm layer, so I only get to wear it in that sweet spot between spring and summer when it's cold enough for fur but warm enough to walk around without insulation that buttons up to my neck. Everything that I'm wearing here - excluding my boots and sunglasses -

If you've been reading this blog for a while you'll know that I love A: jumpsuits B: anything with a pattern, and C: clothes that feel like pyjamas. Luckily for me, this jumpsuit meets all three of these requirements! I've been wearing it non-stop this week (is that wrong?) for sewing, lounging, running errands and everything in-between. It's super comfy and the cute print means that it looks like
