Autumn Jackets

With it being Autumn now, I'm starting to look for clothing in rich warm colours. I always think that the warmer Autumnal colours make you feel warmer when you are wearing them. I also think that if you have good quality key pieces in classic seasonal colours, then you can buy the less expensive fashion pieces to keep your look up to date and you don't need to replace your entire wardrobe every year.

When Muddy Puddles asked if I would like to review their Brisk Interactive Jacket in a lovely Raspberry colour, Mum knew that I would say yes because the colour is one of my favourites (I like lilac the best however) and also because she knew I'd look good in the jacket. The jacket arrived really quickly, which I always think is a good sign if you are ordering online because it means that you aren't waiting for ages for you new purchases to come.

The jacket is cut longer in the girls style, which is nice as it is a a flattering fit as we girls are shaped differently to boys. The jacket is fitted too, which I thought was a good design feature as it stops the wind getting into your jacket around the waist and wrists.

A lot of the time I'm in such a hurry to go out, that when it comes to zips it takes me several times to actually get a jacket done up (I must remember less haste more speed in the future), but I found the zip on this jacket to be more secure and less fiddly than on similar pieces.

The jacket is warm and padded, but it isn't bulky, it's perfect for the cooler Autumn and even Spring months without the added bulk of being a Winter coat. It can however zip into another jacket, creating a inner lining which would lead to a very warm jacket perfect for winter months and would keep away the chill.

The jacket is machine washable, which is great as I'm only Ten and will probably get it quite dirty going Conker collecting or if Mum and I go foraging again soon. I love the jacket and think that if I can persuade Mum or Dad to buy me the 3 in 1 Explorer Jacket that it zips into I'll be very snug this winter.

I was sent this jacket to review.

Unofficial Uniforms and my Chequered Shirt

I have a chequered shirt that my Mum says is the sort of shirt she is sure I'll wear when I'm a Mum. I don't know if it will be my style when I am older, but I do like it and I know that a lot of Mums do have an unofficial uniform of sorts.

My Mum tends to wear black trousers and a blouse, although occasionally a T-shirt and jeans combo slips in and some of the other Mums that I see at School seem to live their life in gym clothes.

I think that whatever you feel most comfortable in, is what you should wear. What do you feel most comfortable wearing?

Sunday Best

When I go to Church on Sunday, I like to look my best and so I normally wear one of my favourite dresses. This was a dress that my Mum got sent to review on A Mother's Ramblings and I love it because of the colour and the glitzy collar.

Are you a fan of sequins? What would you ideal sequinned clothing item be?

Slogan Shirts - Yay or Nay?

A lot of the T-Shirts that I like have phrases written on them, and I'm a fan of them. My Mum however doesn't like many shirts with phrases on and only tolerates the ones that my Dad wears!

What do you think? Do you like slogan shirts?

A Stylish PJ Day

Last week, when I got dressed I got straight into PJ's as today we had a Pyjama day. I decided to make it a little more me by putting on one of my favourite hats.

Are you a fan of accessories like hats? What is your favourite accessory?

Summer fun

I changed my hair colour for Summer, I went pink and purple.

Mum said it was allowed this Summer, because I want to be a Fashion Designer and so I need to be able to express myself.

How old were you when you knew what job you wanted to have when you were older?
