Robert Noble tweed for JCrew skirt 2009 Bosie of Scotland fair isle in Ditsy, Rosebud |
I have these two fabulous Scottish tweed skirt suits from JCrew 2009, smart jackets and practical skirts, the skirts have an a-line shape and several panels of tweed, making them warm and walkable.
They are so practical to wear, but I'm not always going to wear a tweed jacket, it's far too constricting (and let's face it, difficult to layer underneath a winter coat).
So I had an idea to pair the skirts with some very traditional fair isle sweaters, in co-ordinating colours of course!
Green tweed and pink wool: PREPTASTIC! |
Robert Noble tweeds. |
How about the red?
I absolutely love this golden yellow with red, I just think it picks up on the vibrancy of the tweed, the slight yellow undertone and general cheeriness.
The interior binding of the skirt (and of the matching jacket) is a golden yellow, giving a good clue to a pairing.
I love these sweaters (jumpers) they are soft and super warm, have a loose (but not ridiculously large) fit, and they make a perfect outfit with the skirts.
Outfit for shopping and book club last evening. |
I hope your lead-up to Christmas is going well and that you're not going crazy with preparations!
