It's currently "Spring" here in England, but although it may be sunny, it's still pretty cold. It even snowed a few days ago in Lancashire. So while everybody else is buying summery lace dresses & denim shorts, I'm still stocking up on Winter jackets. Well, when I say Winter, I have switched to biker jackets rather than fur lined, extra thick waterproof coats which is something.

My latest "Spring" purchase and perhaps one of my favourite and wearable pieces is this H&M tweed biker jacket which I picked up on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. It's zip detailing and thick wool material make it perfect to throw on over a simple t-shirt and jeans look, to effortlessly turn your outfit into something super stylish but will still keep you reasonably warm. I also love how it looks with this Missguided grid print skirt (of course it's another Ebay bargain) and I can see myself wearing this wool skirt all the way into Summer, as it's neutral colour palette means it can work with bright colours when it's warm, or blacks and whites when the weather is a little drab.
