Wearing Boden High Rise True Straight Jeans with Bright Pink Blazer

Bright pink blazer with jeans and gold sneakers

You might remember me telling you about this bright pink blazer in this blog post from last year. Although I haven’t worn it a great many times, when I do wear it, I always enjoy it.

Bright pink blazer with jeans and gold sneakersPoppy and I went to a cheese and wine-tasting evening. It was an informal event so this was an ideal outfit. The jeans are the Boden *High Rise True Straight Jeans . They are super stretchy and because there was rather a lot of cheese at the event, (see below), I was incredibly grateful for this. These jeans come in waist sizes and leg lengths rather than dress sizes so you can find the perfect fit. I’m a UK size 12 and am wearing the 29 inch waist. I wanted the leg to be slightly cropped so got the 30 inch length. (I’m 175cm, 5 ft 9 tall for reference). They really are a beautiful fit – they don’t sag, gape or go baggy and, at the time of writing, they have 20% off. Here is the link.

~Sicily Day 3 🌋~ Today we drove to Mount Etna. ~Sicily Day 3 🌋~
Today we drove to Mount Etna. We parked and took a cable car to around 3000m then a 4x4 bus to take us higher still. We trekked (quite informally but with a guide) as far as we could to see large craters and the summit of this extraordinary mountain. I had never seen anything like it before- the terrain looked other worldly. September isn’t peak tourist time but there were still plenty of parties on the mountain - yet it was almost eerily quiet. Given the propensity for eruption, the quiet calmness was remarkable. Do swipe through to see the steam pouring from the summit. 
When we got back to the hotel, we had the mother of thunderstorms with torrential rain which stopped play somewhat 🌋⛈️🇮🇹

We collected our hire car and checked into the beautiful hotel @hotel_villa_sonia at the top of a hill above Taormina. The hotel is quaint and the staff are brilliant. But we chose this hotel for the spectacular views over Mount Etna (swipe to see more). She had her head in the clouds but hopefully we’ll see more of her over the next few days. 
We ate at @lacavernawinebarcastelmola - I had tuna and it was excellent. The local wine was rather good too!

~ Specs by Prue 👓 ~ Yesterday, @benjaminoptici ~ Specs by Prue 👓 ~
Yesterday, @benjaminopticians, we had an open day to celebrate the practice’s 70th birthday. I was delighted to be sharijg the full collection of @specs_by_prue courtesy of @mac_eyewear_uk_ireland. It is a stunning, vibrant collection which is very wearable, very comfortable and beautifully fabricated. I always encourage patients to try something out of their comfort zone and it’s amazing how many will fall in love with a style they wouldn’t have gravitated to. 
I’m wearing model 22012 in colourway 3, tortoiseshell and aqua (with my prescription lenses in). Swipe to see it in detail and in other colourways.

Today we met up with Ian’s brother and sister-in-law at @yspsculpture. It was my first visit and I thought it was brilliant with sculptures by @damienhirst, @erwinwurm and more, (swipe through). The lunch was rather nice too (artichoke bruschetta if you’re interested)💚.

I mentioned on my blog that I was stalking the matching trousers to this fabulous @me_andem jacket. My tenacity paid off and they came back into stock in my size so I duly snapped them up. And..they’re fab. I can’t wait to wear them both as a suit and as separates.
