As part of our recent UNIQLO giveaway collaboration, I was invited to shoot some of the brand’s latest arrivals from their French linen ‘lifewear’ collection.
Being the shirt lover that I am, I could not go past the classic linen long sleeve shirt in ‘natural’ (a nice change from regular white!) ($49.90), and I also chose their fab double-breasted linen blazer ($99) in brown.
Both options are completely versatile, and I can see myself wearing them over and over again this Summer. Staples like this are always worth having on hand and at these prices, you can afford to have a few!
This light-weight, breathable linen blazer instantly transforms casual into “smart casual”, and it’s work-friendly too. I was impressed with the lines and cut of this jacket, and for under $100, it’s a great buy.
I teamed the shirt and blazer with a great pair of jeans from Jeanswest’s new ‘Prima Denim collection‘ ($129). These jeans are super comfortable and super-stretchy! They are quite high-waisted and feature zips on the ankles.
The camouflage pumps are by ‘Diavolina‘. If you’ve ever wanted a pair of Louboutins but don’t have a lazy $800 lying around, then definitely try to track down a pair of the Alessa pumps by this brand instead. They come in all sorts of colours but sell out quickly. At $149 (available online or from ‘Wanted’), they’re well worth it.

They have some gorgeous colours for the shirts.
They do! Fresh, wearable colours, and everything goes with denim.
Love the blazer!
Thanks Judi1 – it comes in white too, worth checking out!
