Tailored linen and denim.Casual style

Have you noticed the Autumn/winter clothing seeping into the shops? the transition of seasons is most probably my favourite times of the year. March onwards and September heading into Winter This is the perfect time to wear my tailored blazers. Not cold enough for a coat but something light to wear over a top, T-shirt or sweater.

tailored

This is the very first entry into my wardrobe for AW20 The Lennox blazer. A linen mix expertly crafted by Baukjen. I still aim to wear my lighter colours heading into the winter season and this blazer is going to be my hero.

tailored

That’s the beauty of a tailored blazer. You can literally wear anything with them. Be uber smart or casual and relaxed like me today.

We’ve popped out for tea at Orsett Hall. One of my favourite places near home to take some quick photos. One minute it’s pouring with rain and the next we have blazing sun. The humidity in the air is apparent as it swells my hair to double the volume in minutes!

tailored

Accessories are simple. The Legelith bag with contrasting edging. A handy bag to wear either cross body or just use the top handle. I haven’t used this bag anywhere near enough and I think it’s the first entry here on the blog.

It will get plenty of wear through the colder months I’m sure but my main go-to bag is still that brilliant dupe that I shared is my daily go-to.

Accessories for casual or tailored style

New in at Baukjen is this double-ringed gold-plated Rosamund necklace and I love it. Very similar to my favourite Helix necklace that I have in silver. Baukjen always come up trumps with accessories and I wear my Eloise earrings often, They’ve not tarnished at all. Good quality just like their clothing.

I’m head to toe in Baukjen today, wearing the new Girlfriend jeans. I’m going more for a classic style jean now and not wearing the skinny;s so much. These are just so comfortable too!

I like the handy self-tie belt with the tailored blazer.A roll neck jumper is going to pair nicely with it in the colder months. You can see the jacket in action on my YouTube channel for more detail

Another reason why I love this brand so much

I love Baukjen for its sustainability, work ethics and support of charities. This T-shirt was issued last year for the Diana Award. This year Baukjen has supported many charities with the face masks provided to so many in need around the world. You can read more about it all here.

Don’t forget my 20% discount is still available ladies. Enter VM20 at the checkout and this includes my American buddies too.

    It is a great time to get out those blazers for an extra layer! I love the shape and neutral shade of this one and your Be Kind tee is perfect with it. I love that double ringed necklace, too!

    You always look gorgeous in this chic and stylish style!!

    I love the cut of the blazer – and I remember that you’re quite petite but it doesn’t swamp your small frame.

    It’s warming up here, Laurie, but always interested to see what to expect next year!!

    Classy stylish blazer! I love the brief periods in spring and autumn when we can wear jackets and blazers (or long cardigans) before it gets either too hot or too cold. The necklace is lovely too. I have the Baukjen face coverings, very pleased with them (and they sent duplicates so I was able to share some with others).

    This is such a wonderfully classic look to transition into fall, Laurie! I love these neutral shades on you. And I am always a fan of denim with a blazer! Such a great combination. Thanks for linking up!

    Love love love this look!! Pairing a blazer with jeans is so cool and fashion forward. I’d love to try it, but I think all of my blazers are too tight/tailored. The looser cut of yours is perfect!

      Hi Grace. Thank you. I agree. The more fitted the blazer the less on-trend it looks. I have some lovely fitted blazers but they just don’t give off that on-trend vibe. There are so many great boxy/straight cut blazers to suit many a budget now. I would give one a try. xx

    I haven’t been to too many shops yet, but I did notice some exciting pieces in the shop windows! Admittedly, Autumn/Winter is my favourite season, preferring the colour palettes to those of the Spring/Summer season. Your neutral blazer looks like the perfect piece for all seasons. It looks especially lovely worn with jeans! xxx

    I am looking forward to wearing more neutrals. I sure have been bright and sunny this summer with my choice in colorful skirts and tops but there is something about cream, beiges, greys that I also love.

      I wear creams and beiges all year round, Mireille. This is what I love about a neutral shaded wardrobe. It all transitions so easily. xx

    Lovely looks! That jacket will look great with skirts, too. I particularly like the bag!
