I’m not sure Laura will be all that over the moon when she reads this as I’m pinching a pretty good debit credit (oh you’ve no idea of the satisfaction you get when you find a good one) but my quest for a few new Spring / Summer buys is looking up.

Not having been looking forward to the fact that I had to traipse back up the King’s Road in the freezing weather to change Coco’s pink skinnies for a smaller size (one minute Zara kids is tiny, the next it’s huge) but in doing so I did stumble upon a rather more affordable version of the Acne Rita Suede blush jacket I’ve been coveting.

So the Zara version is leather not blush (I’m actually thinking that could be a good thing on the care front) or, to point out the obvious, Acne whose Spring / Summer collection is mega but it is almost a tenth of the price and with that, I’m sold.
