This is my go-to outfit at the moment when I don't feel like wearing anything else at all or when I am in a hurry. The Barbour jacket and Acne jeans are the essentials and I just swap tops and shoes from day to day. Ever since I got the Barbour, it's probably my most worn item. It shields against wind and rain, has big pockets to carry all my little things (camera, phone, wallet) and goes with almost anything else in my closet. I bought a fake fur lining that can be attached with zippers and a hood in addition to make it winterproof. I might do an entry showing some of my essential items as mentioned above, if there's an interest.
i used my cousin's old barbour jacket while i was in germany.....and went out and bought my own the next day. so amazing.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested

I love that jacket! Barbour always does an excellent job with their jackets. I believe they also come with a lifetime warranty which can be very handy in the future. I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my New York Fashion Week pictures!

Deletei feel like this at the moment, especially with my lambswool jumper i pretty much wear every day. yeah i'm interested
ReplyDeleteare u a vmpire or something, cause ive been following u for some time, and u never age haha
ReplyDeletehaha, well i do look young and i don't think you see someone aging that much in 3 years...
DeleteSweet jumper, I have an APC jumper and it is literally the warmest thing ever, though I guess you won't be cold with the fake-fur lining either! Very stylish 'it's winter so I can't be bothered' getup - a lot better than mine xxx

What color is that jacket and wear can I get the exact same one? Is this the sylkoil version or the wax one?

ReplyDeleteI'm interested.
ReplyDeletea barbour jacket is on the top of my wanted list! i just can't choose between the beadnell or the beaufort. the fur lining idea is genius btw.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your jacket! I've been looking for one that's pretty similar to that.
ReplyDeleteGreat look, as usual! :)
interested!
ReplyDeleteYes, please share your essentials.
ReplyDeleteI greatly admire your blog and your take on fashion and art.
The cream colour of the sweater combined with the olive waxed barbour and its suede collar is eye candy. Everything goes well with your Miltzen. Certainly interested in an essential items entry!
ReplyDeleteThats a clean & sharp look.
ReplyDeleteHow did you attach the faux fur lining? I love this idea.
ReplyDeleteyou can get it from barbour directly in the size according to your jacket's size and it's attached by zippers
DeleteLove the glasses! Suits you!
DeleteTake a look at my new blog, thanks, moved the ol' good one to a new location. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater!

ReplyDeletethe sweater is from the A/W 2010 collection but it eventually reappears in upcoming seasons in different colours
