The weekend just passed reminded me of some the awesome little things in life. Following a week of 'having just moved' stresses I was so grateful for two days to step back and recharge. The following made for an awesome weekend, and helped kick start this week with a smile.
A super hot cappuccino from the best place in town.
This Iris & Ink cashmere sweater. The softest crew neck with a Spring time stripe.
A Winter BBQ with friends, complete with wood burning fire and blankets. Thank you hostess with the mostess.
Nonsensical conversations with Ols.
The sunshine. It happened.

Notes On Styling: This outfit is probably my favourite weekend getup ever. I wore this coat almost two years ago to the day and it has been one of my soundest investments. At the time it cost me more money than I'd ever spent on a coat (which didn't take much as I'd previously mostly had School duffles), but cost per wear of this particular no showed true testament to quality over quantity. There's a similar shape available here but I personally love the colour block vibe of this one. Weekends and knitwear make for pretty great friends, and Iris & Ink's range of cashmere is divine.
Side note: divine is a great word!
Iris & Ink's cashmere hits mid-range in terms of price point, but I can attest to the quality and shape. I also love that they cover all bases with classic dusty greys as well as boxy stripes. My first forray into ripped jeans saw me give these ASOS babes a spin, the cut is great - flexible which is ace for curves - and the rips are subtle.
What little pleasures make for a great weekend for you?
