HIGH NECK JUMPER AND CHECK PANTS FOR TRANSITIONAL SEASON

Hi everyone,

The cold days are behind us but the weather is still nippy and as much as we wish to swap warm clothes for shorts and t-shirts, we are not exactly there yet.  In today's outfit, I am showcasing two new additions to my spring collection:  a jumper and a pair of pants.  

I have been on the look-out for a transitional jumper for quite some time, something less warm than my winter ones but still be able to keep me snug until the warm weather comes, and this jumper from Sportsgirl fits the bill perfectly.  

I really liked its high neck (I can now wear it for Zoom meetings and not worry that people can see the wrinkles on my neck in a close-up 🙋🙋🙋), extra long bell-shape sleeves and sloppy joe shape. It was hugely discounted and by the time I found it on-line, my size (M) was sold out.  

I was slightly disappointed and decided to try one size up (L).  It might look slightly slouchy but I figured that had I ordered my size, it would be too short so in the end I was happy.  I had a choice between black and so called "oatmeal" colours and decided to go for the latter.  

As in the previous post, these turned-up hem checked trousers are from Zara too.  They just appealed to me for their easy relaxed vibe and soft comfortable fabric.  I first thought of wearing them over short boots but then I was wearing boots during the last three months of winter and wanted to wear something lighter and more open.  My loafers are relatively new but you saw me wearing them here.  

They are extremely comfortable and I like wearing them with the hems rolled up.  Our office dress code has never been strict but now it's even more relaxed which gives me the opportunity to give this outfit a good workout 😄.

Hope you have a great week ahead

Until then,

Anna
