Other than being met with thousands of denim jackets or pale coloured leather jackets, it is impossible to find a non statement cover up for warmer evenings. Don’t get me wrong, I love denim and leather (and if I wanted a denim jacket it would be this one with epic puffed shoulders), but in the summer I want a little versatile cover up to throw on once the sun has gone down, that will go with patterned and coloured dresses/tops.
So, what am I looking for? A pale cotton/linen/rayon cape or jacket that will go with everything.
Perhaps a tiny bit of embellishment/colour.
Can I find one in the shops? No! I’m just met with boring cardigans, floral kimono’s and patterned capes. It’s so frustrating.
So, what’s the only thing to do…

Bingo!
Good old Zara haven’t failed me. They know what women need!
Zara Cutwork Overshirt £29.99
Zara jacket with Contrasting Cut Embroidery £49
I particularly like the last one as it is so neutral. Be quick though as items as versatile and rare as this won’t stick around for long (they have just landed)
Whistles Embroidered Jacket £119
Ok, double the price but fingers crossed double the quality?
River Island White Wrap Blouse £28
I have seen a few little wrapped blouses that would look lovely over a dress. Definitely worth investigating.
Monsoon Alana Embelished Jacket £99
I almost can’t resist this. This is fabulous. Understated statement!
