Oh you wear a North Face jacket? You must go on so many adventures! WELL YES. Yes, I do. My dream of owning a North Face jacket has finally been realised in the shape of this ecru masterpiece. If you're like me and a fan of country walks and climbing active volcanoes, chances are you'll already know how awesome this brand is.
The main issue with being a fashion lover who likes to go on adventures, is ensuring my outdoor wardrobe is also hella cute. When we were backpacking around the world my boyfriend thought it was pretty hilarious that I still cared about my clothing at 13,500 ft above sea level... Like, whatever.
The North Face jacket: c/o Millets - Jeans: New Look - Biker: Warehouse - Necklace: c/o Amuse Fashions Boots: Dr. Martens - Hat: PrimarkI guess when you're in a foreign country it doesn't really matter *as much* but there's no excuse for not making an effort on home soil. This North Face Resolve jacket is warm, waterproof and pretty sweet looking in my opinion. I styled it over a a biker jacket, black cami, some skinny jeans and a pair of Dr. Martens. This outfit is great for a walk on an estate but still wouldn't look out of place at the shops. It would also be perfect for this year's festivals! Glastonbury is freezing at night but I'd be as snug as bug in a rug in this. It's easy to spend £60 on a high street parka which is rubbish quality in comparison. I definitely recommend paying a little bit more and getting something which will last (and work).
This jacket is a size small which is the equivalent of an 8. It's a good fit on me as I still have room for a base layer and a fleece (or a leather jacket). When I Googled 'how to style a North Face jacket' I hardly found any results so I hope this inspires you!
My incredible Fish 'N Chips necklace is from aMuse Fashions by Sarah Nettleton. Not only is Sarah extremely talented, she's a fellow tweetaholic! A girl after my own heart. Her jewels really make me smile and are beautifully hand crafted. From sailboat inspired pieces to ice lollies, Sarah's new summer collection is just swoon worthy. Every time I wear this necklace I want to head to the chippie...NOM. Go forth and shop!
Do you own anything by The North Face? Are you also a fan of British jewellery designers?

ReplyDeleteI go camping a lot with my guides and I never have proper stuff, always cute stuff which sadly sometimes isn't up to the task..
my dad once bought me an awful reversible jacket which was bright yellow, i had to wear it whenever i saw him it was a disaster !!
