You may be accustomed to the dramatics emanating from HøF at this time of year. Much like flowering plants and breeding birds, we respond to the seasonal cues of longer days and warmer temperatures by coming up with daring, garish displays to impress, intimidate and infatuate those around us. And this year is no different. We are shimmying our way into festival season with plenty of colour, zany hair styles and, well, a whole load of sequins.

However, there is one small, but crucial difference to our striking displays this season. We will be keeping them throughout the year. And in the next post, we will style our sequin bombers for everyday wear. Because, in reality, they are incredibly versatile. To date, I have worn my sequin bomber jacket over a corporate dress for a meeting-to-party transition, to drinks at the new White City House (part of the Soho House Group) and out for dinner with an old friend. And it has stolen the show on every occasion.
For now, however, let’s cover the most important season of the year; that of the festival. Whether you’re going to a small arts and literary festival in the depths of Wales or, in the absence of Glastonbury, hitting Wilderness with 20 friends, this bomber is going to see you through. Throw it on over almost any combination of clothes and you’ll be the sequin-clad, shoulder-riding, dancing queen of the mosh pit.

The reversible sequins on the gold jacket allow you to design your own pattern across the entire jacket. Fancy a peace sign on your chest or initials on your back? Just draw with your finger as you would with a pen to paper. Or, if you are thinking sequins without the reversible fuss, opt for the classic black.
If, like us, you are counting down the days until your annual pilgrimage to a muddy field nowhere near you, get your magpie claws into one of these bomber jackets. Just think, it’s the only time of year you get to wear wellington boots, sunglasses, neon brights, face paint and sequins all at once. Trust us, you’ll be emanating dramatics too.

Dont know if I am a bomber jacket girl but great to see the double act are back! Have missed your posts and what with LTS going mail order I have hit a brick wall here in rural Ireland as far as fahion for tall women. I know there are other tall bloggers out there but you
both nail it in for me in terms of style, sophistication and elegance.
Hi Val, yes LTS certainly get it right sometimes. I love their super long PJ bottoms! I guess we always felt they fell short on the quality but to be fair we haven’t tried them for a while. Shame about the closing down of their stores – it’s certainly not easy finding tall fashion! I guess we have just learned to enjoy ankle grazers, rolled back sleeves and filter out anything high street that is too structured. In a way it’s nice to have less choice – there’s SO much stuff out there! Thank you so much for your lovely comments xx
You girls know how to rock fashion. Personally not a fan of dowdy TLS. I eagerly wait my email drop from the two of you. Wish you added more fashion to buy. Well done. ladies!
Yes, I would agree LTS can be very dowdy but have had a couple of maxi dresses and occasion dresses that have come up to the mark. However, now that they have closed all their shops in the UK, except 2 in London, I will be buying even less.
Thanks Vicki! I suppose the honest truth is that we’re keen to move away from encouraging people to buy new stuff all the time – even though that means less business for us. Consumerism has gone mad and we feel that a fast fashion, throw away mindset is having a detrimental impact on our environment. So instead we’re focusing on recycling our existing wardrobes and supplementing it with key investment pieces that will stand the test of time. That said, we will of course be posting the occasional blog about new things! Hope this makes sense? We are so grateful for your readership and feedback so thank you! xx
