I don’t know about you guys, but I am totally loving the
colour cream right now. It’s my new favourite neutral hue for the season -
partly because I’ve decided that nude tones look strange on my coffee-coloured
skin tone and have been looking for an alternative, and partly because I’m
trying to clutch at summer amidst all these depressing June showers. So I’ve
been trying to lighten things up in my wardrobe my replacing those staple black
items with cream ones, and I have found some amazing pieces out there to do
this with.
Firstly, I fell completely and utterly in love with this incredible cream leather studded biker jacket from Zara. Now, usually I would NEVER be able to justify spending £170 on any one piece of clothing, for a bargain hunter like me it’s a criminal atrocity but I am a total sucker for studs, and it truly is a rarity these days to find a good quality leather jacket in a user-friendly shape. Restrictive clothes are a pet-hate of mine (this is why I choose not to wear jeans) and I always find restriction a huge problem when trying on leather jackets because if the material is too tough and thick at the elbow then I can barely move my arm. But Zara have got it entirely right with this one: the softness of the leather allows for easy movement and the cream hue stops the leather/stud combination from looking too gothic or grungey. I’m a huge fan, salivate over it with me:
Unfortunately, it seems that I got incredibly lucky finding this one in the Windsor Zara store, and having sold out in stores the jacket is now selling for £300+ on ebay!? Alternatively they have it in black still available on the Zara website, or there is also a similar but studless plain cream jacket online:
