Wear it Well: The Breton

16 Sep 2016

When it comes to clothes, nothing says summer like the Breton! The iconic top is a summer wardrobe must-have and our Silk & Cotton Breton Strip Boat Neck is a WoolOvers favourite.

However, everyone wears theirs differently, from chinos and deck shoes to a biker jacket and heels, so we challenged some of our favourite bloggers to show us how they wear their Breton.

Lela London

Lifestyle blogger Lela London loves to travel and she loves throwing on our comfy black and white Breton jumper when she is out and about. Lela opted for an oversized jumper and paired it with white shorts and some cute ankle boots!

“I bought mine oversized, but this makes it perfect to wear between seasons and is ridiculously comfortable.”

Queenbeady

Keen traveller Bee at Queenbeady chose the French Navy & White Breton and wore it with a nautical scarf, jeans and Birkenstocks. She talks very openly and bravely about the challenges of life and how she has found a wonderful group of people in the blogging community. Thanks for the post Bee and we wish you all the best in the future!

Adventures of a Nice Girl

Twenty-something Londoner Charli dreams of owning a pug and seeing the world. She chose the classic White & Cobalt Breton for her charming post A Sunset Picnic in Greenwich Park. She wore her Breton with a statement necklace (we love!), white shorts and some fabulous red suede boots.

“I can’t get enough of breton tops and this one is fast becoming my favourite. Vibrant blue stripes with adorable turquoise detailing on the cuffs and all in the cosiest of silk/cotton fabric. Ideal for summer evenings and oh so easy to dress up or down. Another major selling point for me is that it’s actually long enough for my 5’10 self and the relaxed fit makes for a very versatile wardrobe addition indeed.”

Elegantly Fashionable

Debonita shares her petite style on her blog Elegantly Fashionable. She chose the Grey Marl & White Breton and wore it with jeans and heels. Let’s not forget the killer shades! We love the white nails as well… Thanks for the post Debonita!

“A classy fashion piece, yet with a contemporary feel to it, the Breton stripe top is a very versatile option for a casual or a smart look. Made from extra fine gauge silk and cotton, it is such a comfortable top that you’ll want to wear pretty much everywhere.”

What Emma Did

Award-winning blogger Emma is a lifestyle blogger with a huge love for beauty and fashion. When it comes to fashion she loves loungewear and anything grey, which is why she got on perfectly with our grey and white Breton top, paired with our cotton lounge pants.

“I’m currently sporting the loveliest lounge wear from Wool Overs, and when I tell you I never want to take off the ultra comfy jogging bottoms and top when I wear them, I’m not exaggerating.”
