The smile says it all really...
The final post and a round up of the fabulous day with Jaeger at Jollys in Bath on Sunday.
I'm fully aware that I've waxed lyrical about Jaeger this week, it wasn't really on my radar before... I guess I had thought it was for the 'older' lady.. How wrong could I be...?!
In a talk last night, we heard from Sheila McKain-Waid (Creative Director of Womenswear at Jaeger), she said that since taking over 18 months ago, the collections are designed for the "intelligent" woman...Those that want classic English styling with a contemporary update and that appreciate the quality and value of a piece. This couldn't be a truer point.. Investing in style is important. You do feel good knowing you're wearing quality after all. Sheila said that they keep to core basics too and invest in the cut and styling process very heavily as a brand... Did you know that their latest Trench coat is made of 37 (!!) design pieces..That's some detail.
The price point of Jaeger is higher than the disposable fashion on the high street but let's face it, those pieces aren't for life..? Jaeger is luxurious quality for value! As a side note, there was a lady at the talk last night in a Jaeger suit she had bought in 1985!! What do you think her cost per wear is now?!!
Back to Sunday...
I took my time to choose some investment pieces from Jaeger...After a lot of trying on, I finally went with the cotton denim shirt, a tortoiseshell bracelet and the wool silk petal dress and then as we left, Jaeger generously gifted us with the limited edition silk scarf that's been commissioned to celebrate their sponsorship of Bath in Fashion 2015 and a gorgeous scented candle!

new Jaeger dress and the
