Notable pieces in the collection include some knee-length "jodhpurs" which I would hesitate to call jodhpurs. True jodhpurs are slimmer in the lower thigh and knee area and have more volume in the hip area. They're cute though, and have pleats down the front of the leg. They come in dark blue or black. I adore the ruffled Victorian bouses and the transparent blouses with the bows that tie at the neck. My favorite piece is the melton wool ruffled capelet that comes in blue or in ivory. (It's the one featured in the ads with a pink and white striped shirt layered underneath.) I bought it in blue, as it's my favorite color. I know I'll be wearing this a lot this season.
I also bought the denim overalls, which run small. I like the halter styling and the adjustable belt-like feature in the lower back - it creates a sexy cutout area just above the pant waistline and allows for a snug, tailored fit.
I also bought the gray high neck Victorian blouse with puffy sleeves and a peplum waist. It has cuffed sleeves, a banded neck, and looks much more expensive than its $29.99 price tag. I'll pair it with a cropped vest, cameo brooches, or even the Temperley denim overalls pictured above.
Although many of the pieces in the collection were in neutral shades of ivory, black, gray, or navy, there were some touches of color in the form of a bright pink T-shirt, a lemon yellow, gray, and white striped long-sleeved T-shirt, a coral pointelle sweater vest, and a cheery graphic print dress. Being a fan of color, I found the collection easy to shop because almost every item can be mixed and matched together for infinite possibilities.
Front and back views of the denim overalls, $39.99.
The blue melton wool capelet/jacket, $44.99. It's so soft! As a plus, it has a playful blue and black polka-dot satin lining, and I'm tempted to go buy one in ivory.
The gray Victorian blouse, $29.99. This picture doesn't do it justice. I paired it with a faux shearling and suede vest and a cameo necklace.
