Royal Blue and Oatmeal

     Royal Blue and Oatmeal, Mary Portas blue trousers, Zara blue jacket

You’ve probably gathered from some of my recent posts that I’m a fan of the Mary Portas collection at House of Fraser. The pieces are so versatile, flattering and comfortable – a combination that’s often hard to come by. These trousers are no exception, they feel so soft and silky and could easily take you from office to night out.

The royal blue and oatmeal contrast nicely; teaming a bright colour with a neutral keeps it grounded and makes it easier to wear

For a smart casual look I’m wearing them with a jacket from Zara, which is almost a perfect colour match. The royal blue and oatmeal contrast nicely; teaming a bright colour with a neutral keeps it grounded and makes it easier to wear. For a bolder look I’d swap the oatmeal jumper for one in pink, green or maybe yellow…and add some fun shoes!

This necklace is by Les Nereides – I adore their quirky jewellery, especially the Paris-themed pieces.
