Who doesn't love a good breton? Well not me, I seem to naturally gravitate towards them and wear them on a weekly basis - they are perfect for school runs. They add a touch of easy elegance, I don't feel scruffy, they are a no brainer when rushing to get the kids out the door and Coco Chanel wore them so enough said on that! I featured my latest one from
Cos the other month in
this post. I loved it so much that when I went to Dublin to visit my sister I grabbed the grey version.

Appearance from Lizzie cat again - that black thing wrapped in my baby blanket!
Top; Cos
Jeans; Zara
Shoes; Spanish Supermarket |
They work out slightly cheaper wen buying in Euro's - approimately £13 which makes them an absolute bargain. They have both washed so well and are easy to run an iron over, not a fussy top to do. I really couldn't recommend them enough.

The navy version £17 |

The red version - perhaps next time! |
That COS breton looks like a fab shape Natalie! I seem to have accumulated a fair few Bretons recently....like you I could be very tempted by the red one! xx
ReplyDeleteIt really is Michelle. It's got a more Autumnal feel the red! x
DeleteI agree that you can't beat a Breton. I have many Boden ones and I'm still looking for more! I just bought a dark green boat neck one from Gap which I'm looking forward to wearing too. You Cos one really suits you - fabulous! Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of dark green Lynne. Thank you! x
DeleteOh you must have had fun in Dublin cos the exchange rate is definitely in your favour right now :) Love Cos - you really can't go too far wrong with anything from there!
ReplyDeleteI certainly did - hence the no spending since home! Overtime I go in there I seem to find something I love now, move over Zara.....! x
DeleteYou look great! I have these from Cos as well, they are fab. Did you know they have a similar short-sleeve version as well? I tried one for the summer and it was perfect.
