When Blue Vanilla contacted me with the ultimate question, I couldn’t help but answer in the form of a blog post, what makes you feel sassy?
This is a pretty difficult question because to me, sassy is a mindset. If you’re a sassy girl, you’ve just got it in you and you’ll be sassy in your greying pyjamas with holes in the same you would in killer heels and an LBD. But obviously there are certain pieces of clothing, like Bey and her Freakum’ Dress, that just make you feel like you own that shit.
The Jacket of Dreams
I think I can pretty much promise you that this jacket will now feature in 80% off all outfit posts slash my life in general. This is because I am in love. Jigsaw, you complete me. . the shape is just so sleek and beautiful and look how summery it makes this outfit . . and sleek.
I was kindly gifted this but knowing what I now know I would 100% have paid full price for this and it’s made me do such an about turn on investment pieces and splashing out for key pieces. If in doubt, think of the pounds per wear!
What Makes You Sass?
I’ve already done my sassy is a mindset babble at the beginning of the post, so I thought I would show you the piece in my wardrobe that makes me feel like a Sass Queen. If in doubt, cold shoulder. For me, cold shoulder tops are my ultimate go to piece when I want to feel good and have no idea what to wear. I think that’s quite possibly why I’m addicted to buying them?
Despite them being really of the moment I find them super flattering for my shape. Obviously I’m not a big breasted gal by any means, so it covers that and gives you a sneaky little shoulder show off. Because shoulders are the new boobs dont’cha know? Well maybe they aren’t, but that’s what I’m going with!
I picked up this little H&M number a couple of weeks ago and love the kind of shirty material, though it does mean it creases like a mother! It’s got little shoulder straps but they’re way too long for me so I’m either cutting them off, or snipping and tieing them, I’m still undecided, opinions would be helpful!

Show Me Your Sassy
I would love to know what makes you guys feel sassy, if you have a particular lipstick, handbag, heels or outfit that you know makes you feel like the queen of sassy unicorn land! OR if you, like me, think sassy is a mindset, do you have any particular hacks to getting your sassy on?

I’m obsessed with your jacket, I really like how you styled it here (and in the previous post) I think I need to buy a white jacket or blazer, I feel like they would go with everything and make every outfit interesting and elegant! And your top is so pretty, great post <3

Totally! I love it so much and it makes everything look super smart what ever you wear it with! I think I might need to buy a cheap one though for certain occasions as I wouldn’t wear this anywhere there might be red wine!!!
Gorgeous! This jacket looks realy good. Very elegant and classy <3
Thanks hun! I love it, it’s so easy to look smart over anything!
Hah, I’m currently wearing the exact same blouse 😀 It looks way more sassy on you though 😀
Love, Kerstin

I bet it doesn’t! I love it so much!
Love this soooo much! I’ve got so many cut-out tops now – just waiting for the weather to warm up a bit so I can style them! If you’re cutting the strap bits I’d just snip them so they’re shorter and sew it back on? Your sister will do it 😉

Do you think? Better with the straps than without??

Aren’t they? I think this is my favourite combo at the moment!
I think sassy is a mindset rather than a thing. But red lippy always makes me feel strong, and ready to take life/things/people on if needed!

Lipstick is definitely a sassy transformer! But yeah – totally a mind set!
Agreed with a comment that sassy is a mindset, however, I’m sure it spills from confidence in an outfit or piece of clothing, hair style, new makeup etc, also. 🙂
Loving this whole outfit, but agreed.. the jacket is just truly beautiful.
