Take one camel jumper

So having decided to inject just a little more colour into my wardrobe I have been keeping an eye out for something to pep up all that black.
I have worn to death a putty coloured cardie from COS so when I saw this jumper I knew it just had to be. It is by Label Lab. a kind of poor mans All Saints. (I love their clothes) I was not even shopping when I found it, I had taken the girls to Bluewater for some lunch and I always park next to the House of Frasier outlet, I really like House of Fraser, but since relinquishing the car I find it too difficult to get to Bluewater which is where I used to go and track down a range of bargains in their sale. I don't like the branch on Oxford Street and so had not been for years. This jumper was almost the first thing I saw and I did resist until we were walking back to the car and in the end I just had to have it.
I Love it, it is very loose, but hangs nicely

Some of these outfits will have to wait though as summer is most definitely over and these have a spring feel to them.

As you can see it works well with both COS skirts as well as the COS harem pants. I also like the almost Yaegeresque feel I get when layering it over that big parachute like skirt I have, but best of all it looks great with a 'problem' skirt on the far right.

Problem?

How so?

Well I LOVE the pattern on that skirt I love the weight of it too, a heavy silk but after years of trying to get something that is not too matchy matchy to wear with it I gave up. Dark colours look horrible with it such as black and navy, It needed a nice turquoise jumper but I find most jumpers are cut very narrow and so only have turquoise in a cardie, which then means I have to fins a nice not clingy t shirt.... and so the dilemma continued until I gave up. Then this jumper arrived and ticked a box. That is what I love about new clothes the way that they can unlock the potential of something you have had for years but never quite nailed.

Label Lab I will be back..
