This is my favourite outfit for a long time and I felt really fabulous wearing it. Today I'm going to show you the
Boohoo Plus Dina plus size camo print bomber but before that, a frank discussion about nipples. Yes, N-I-P-P-L-E-S.
I am a woman and I have nipples. I know, shocker, right?! I have nipples that are sensitive to the cold and the wind, and in breezy conditions my nips like to say hello. You're going to see a lot of nipples in this post because it was awfully windy this day. In the past I scrapped a
lot of photos where my nipples were at attention because.....well, misogyny to be frank. I was expecting mouth-breathers to be like 'Hurr-de-hurr I CAN SEE HER NIPPLES!' like it's something shameful. Well yes you can see my nipples, and almost everyone on the planet has them (except cancer warriors) but because female nipples are so sexualised there's this stigma about them. But I won't be giving any craps about my weather-sensitive nips any more. There will no doubt be a lot of my nipples on this blog over A/W. So there, nipples. I'll move on to my outfit now.

So the first thing you need to know is that military is a
massive trend for A/W, so this jacket will be a handy addition to your autumn wardrobe. I'm wearing a size 24 and I'm a size 26/28 so it is generously sized. It's an unlined jacket with slight give so it'll be perfect for those first days of autumn with a chill in the air. It's cropped so it's a great silhouette for my body as it nips me in just under the boobs which is my smallest point. It doesn't have a collar, which I really like as it's unusual. It had pockets - really big pockets, so much so I need to attach a couple of stitches to the inside of the jacket to keep them in place as they tend to hang below the length of the jacket. With its lovely pink, tan and black shades it'll go with so many things and it's a different spin on an old classic. It has ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem for comfort. I absolutely love it!

I'm also wearing a lace edged top from Big Tights Company in size 24-28. It's so comfortable. These tops wash and dry so well and are moisture wicking. They're made of the same material as their
anti chafe shorts, which I adore!
You might also have seen me wear this
La Redoute dotted tulle skirt in an outfit post before. It's still available to buy and it also comes in a soft grey. I'm wearing a size 26 and it's really comfy and I would say generously sized. The bag is from George at Asda and it's gorgeous. It has a removable zipped bag inside the main bag. It's big enough for all my stuff and the laser cut details are so feminine. It goes with everything. Move fast if you want it as George at Asda is super-fast fashion and lines sell out really quickly.
I'm wearing:
Retro mirror sunglasses, eBay (under £3!)
Eagle necklace, past season Primark, similar

Thanks for reading and let me know what you think of this jacket.
