A peek inside my wardrobe – the bargain pink biker jacket I’m obsessed with

Matalan

When it comes to jackets, I definitely have a suede biker jacket obsession. I can’t help it though. Biker jackets are the perfect mix of being practical, but with a touch of attitude as well. And suede jackets just add a whole different texture and feel to the traditional biker jacket. Which probably explains why I am quite a few of them. But my new favourite is this bargain blush pink one. Which is from Matalan of all place. And is the bargain price of just £30! I honestly can’t stop wearing it which is why I knew I had to share it on here.

Matalan

Now normally when it comes to jacket, I tend to stick to darker colours. And my others definitely have an autumnal feel to them in terms of their colours. But this blush pink one is perfect for as we transition from Spring to Summer. Although it is a heavy jacket to wear during the day, it’s perfect to wear on cooler summer nights. Whether you choose to pair it with jeans, like I do most days. Or with a dress, this is such a versatile piece.

Matalan

And I honestly can’t believe it’s from Matalan. Now I have to admit, I haven’t shopped in Matalan in a while. And when I’m normally in there it’s to pick up active wear. But I moved away from the sportswear section the other week and couldn’t believe how many amazing bits they have in there. I mean Matalan have seriously upped their game recently. And this jacket is proof of that! I’m so excited to see what new bits they bring in for the rest of summer and into Autumn. But if this jacket is anything to go by, I think I may need to make some space in my wardrobe.

You can pick up the jacket here.

What do you think of this jacket? Is it something you’d wear this summer?

As always thank you to Kaye for taking these pictures!

    Oh this is gorgeous! I have a Matalan quite near my house but it’s not somewhere I ever think to look.

    This is a lovely jacket – bargain! I find a lot of clothes in Matalan don’t look like they’re good quality but recently I’ve been picking up a few pieces from there, especially for work. My hubby also got some tracksuit bottoms in there that are really nice and less than half the price of a pair he nearly bought from Next x

    What a Gorgeous Jacket and an amazing price! It is such an unusual colour that I think it would compliment almost any other colour. You look great in it!
