A cream jacket can be one of the most useful wardrobe items. It is extremely versatile. There are a variety of special occasions where a cream jacket would come in handy. It could equally well be dressed down with a pair of jeans and flats or sneakers.
I purchased the one I am wearing last year from Zara. This year there are an even wider range of cream jackets in various styles and fabrics available in the shops and online.
I have added a touch of the modern and on trend by teaming my classic cream jacket with a pair of new style wide ankle length trousers by MeandEm. and a classic black tee also by MeandEm. I have added a pair of black medium heel court shoes. Some years old (similar John Lewis and Nordstrom). If heels are not your thing and I do admit that I mostly wear flats these days; you could easily substitute a dressy pair of flats for the heels.
Once again I have chosen a clean monochrome look. For smarter occasions this appears to be my go to option.

Great jacket! Is Sara a clothing seller, designer? I cannot find it online.
Hi Jill
No excuses but I have had a bit of a chaotic week. It is Zara (that well known High street chain) not Sara. The jacket is from last year. I have popped in a few times this year and have not found their collection so good and the quality of the fabrics seem to have declined.
you look great in that outfit. i will try to copy it!
Very smart look on you.
Really simple outfit & very flattering – no need to pile on accessories . I’m so messy though & it wouldn’t look the same with dirty splodges!
What a beautiful jacket! I love the neckline.
Love this look…of course we are bit partial to B/W!-littleblackdomicile.com
Gorgeous jacket, Josephine…so sophisticated on you!
Hi Josephine,
You always look so fantastic and I love your ideas- I hope to emulate some with my wardrobe. Thanks so much!
