Nowhere without my blazer

Sarah Joynt

Don't you just love it when you buy that one piece every so often and you wondered how you could ever have lived without it? That's what happened to me with the Gant Rugger suit I bought a few weeks ago. I have only worn the blazer so far but it's already proved to be the piece for this winter. You can easily do without a coat and it makes any outfit look ace.
This is how I recently wore it to work. I am wearing: Gant Rugger herringbone tweed blazer from Mr Porter, vintage denim shirt, Uniqlo burgundy v-neck jumper, Acne jeans, Alexander McQueen scarf and Balenciaga bag from Mr Porter.

Corduroy lover

I remember, as a kid, I used to wear lots of corduroy in the shape of trousers, jackets and coats. I don't know why but I went off it for a while and it was only last winter that we reconciled. That's when I bought this pair of April 77 burgundy corduroy trousers. I love the thick type that some designer like Ralph Lauren use but it feels old to me, so I always go for the tiniest one I can find. I am also very keen on this fabric because it slightly changes the shade of the colour depending on the light, so it's a great way to play with texture. I wore the trousers with my suede COS desert boots, my Uniqlo nude jumper, a tan leather vintage belt and a grey jacket (not pictured). What do you think of corduroy?
