Check/ Plaid Jacket Remake

Did some charity/ thrift shopping this weekend and found this lovely, wool, check jacket. It looked a little old-fashioned long, so I chopped the bottom off and added some red buttons to pick out the red in the check.

I have loved this style for ages and finally plucked up the courage to tie a ribbon around my neck! Sounds pathetic, I know, but I teach in a small, country town where minds are not as open as in the Big Smoke... However, my sixth-form students loved my outfit! I don't make a habit of posting photos of myself (particularly with my head attached), because I am so not photogenic, but this is a one-off. I'm not about to start a daily outfit blog, don't worry!!

Don't you just love Jim in the background?!! Haha!!
