A half-hearted farewell to summer

As IF it's autumn...? HOW? I have only just begun to like Aperol Spritz! My local pub garden hasn't seen enough of me and the girls! My BBQ has only been used once! I am still working on my bikini body! Sorry, no, I am just not ready to start mulling cider and roasting chesnuts yet - FYI, I don't do either of those, just getting down with the seasonal lingo - but with the evenings getting darker it's only a matter of weeks before hibernation mode begins, MEH. Although, I must admit Mango's latest A/W drop is looking DI-VINE mate. God, I'm fickle. Anyway, all Lolz aside, I am gutted to see the back of summer so in order to cling on just a wee bit longer I wanted to share what will most likely be one of my last warm-weather looks.

This 

white denim jacket

 is from Roman Originals. In my eyes, you just can't beat a denim jacket, they're a year-on-year classic and something that oozes buy now, wear forever potential. The brand

Roman Originals

might be a little unfamiliar, it was to me too, but for something as timeless as a denim jacket it's worth a visit. Bag yourself a 10% discount by using the

code ABS10

, then that's your denim jacket sorted, 

for now, and seasons to come

I have had a little play around in photoshop with these images; re-educating myself and polishing up skills I learnt when studying Fashion with Photography at university, all those years ago. Do you like? Also, side note: when I was beavering away at uni, Instagram didn't even exist! WHAT. THE. HELL. *shudders at the thought*

Well, summer you've been a blast, I can't remember much of it, not sure if that's because I was mostly infused with gin or because the weather wasn't that great it didn't really feel like a summer at all? Hmm.

In all honesty, I shouldn't be moaning, I am off to rave my socks off at a festival in Portugal next week, so who knows, I might kick the arse out of that holiday and get some vacay-style shoots in the bag...

As always, thanks for reading, you bunch of

babes
