Today was the first day in a long while that it wasn’t cool and rainy here. Now that it’s sunny and warm and we don’t need raincoats or rain boots, I ran across this. A darling jacket by Boden – they describe it as “shower-resistant”. It’s cotton and has a detachable hood. And lots of dots. Very cute dots.

At $56, it’s not Target-cheap but it’s not anywhere near the $1,000 Burberry kids’ trenches I refrained from featuring here…

So, let’s review. It is clear that I like pinafores (or jumpers, whichever term you prefer), Mary Janes and Indian-inspired tunics and dresses. Today, we’ll add little girls’ jackets to the mix. Because I like them. Might even love them. Not “love” like I want to make out with them and stuff but “love” just the same.

You’ll remember the Honeycomb jacket by ismodern and these little spring beauties from Kiwi Industries.

And now, there’s the Caroline jacket by Benny & Moon. Linen and cotton, it’s the perfect little jacket for summer evenings. The style is perfect to top dresses, jeans, clamdiggers, shorts…well, just about anything.

Comes in red or pink, $142 at Benny & Moon.
