The second season of BBC One’s Lost And Found In The Lakes is bringing us more than just heart warming stories of people being reunited with their lost treasures, we’re also getting plenty of outfit inspiration from the show’s host Helen Skelton.
Each episode, Helen and her stylist Annabel Kerman create the chicest of cold weather wardrobe looks that are keeping our outfit inspiration high. Blending casual denim styling with an elevated finish, this latest jeans and a blazer look is one of our favourites.
Wearing ASRA London’s sold out studded western boots with a green button up and Saint + Sophia’s Cambridge blazer in a rich, navy hue, it was Helen’s turned up jeans that added an extra directional feel to the look. Boasting a wide-leg silhouette, flattering high waist and dramatic turned up hemline, they delivered a sophisticated, polished feel.
