It’ll be no surprise to you that I’m fond of wearing black and the majority of the clothing I’ll wear day to day is on that end of the spectrum; grey/black, with the odd stripe here and there. Maybe that’s why this shirt appealed to me? The easy-to-wear oversized fit, irregular stripes and just the right amount of colour to add a pop to my otherwise all black outfit. Though I do feel a little like some 80’s painter/decorator with a hint of Neil Buchanan about to announce ‘here’s something I made earlier’ (yes, I know he wore a red sweatshirt, but there’s something about this shirt…maybe it’s just me)

Shockingly, I think this may be my All Saints’ leather jacket debut! I’ve had this since Christmas (well, ever so slightly before, if you must know) and I wear it all the time; throw it on for work, when I’m out for some drinks, popping out on the weekend. It’s cliche to say, I know, but this biker style just works with so many outfits, plus the leather is buttery soft and it fits perfectly, so I’d be a fool not to wear it!
