Jackie Kennedy Inspired outfit
Today, I'm sharing Jackie Kennedy Inspired outfit with a modern twist. Last week, I saw Jackie, and Natalie Portman was incredible in the film. The film was so intense, emotional and full of sorrow. Portman's accent was absolutely perfect and I love the way the story was told. Jacquline Kennedy Onassis' influence on 20th century fashion is undisputed. The film even pokes fun at it. Jackie is in her car, worried about her future as a presidential widow, and sees store displays with mannequins featuring her signature suit set and brunette bob.

I'm wearing a Ted Baker pink cocoon coat, a floral embellished skater dress from Ted Baker, suede pumps from Zara, Heattech tights from Uniqlo, a vintage leather bag and Prada Minimal Baroque sunglasses.
This Ted Baker coat is very reminiscent of the 1960s. The soft lavender pink pastel colour and feminine rounded shoulders evoke the era. A lot of coats from that time period (and even one Jackie wore) featured no contrasting hardware, and I love how this coat has no distracting buckles or extra frills. The simple single rose gold button is a modern update on the typical wool-covered buttons.
The shape of this coat reminds me of two coats Jackie Kennedy wore, including the ivory one pictured above and a red one designed by Givenchy, which featured a similar rounded shape at the shoulders. Of course, a pink coat is tragically synonymous with Jackie Kennedy Onassis, and has recently grown in popularity thanks to Raf Simons' final bow at Jil Sander. I'm loving the vintage shape of this coat, as well as the soft, pastel colour. The blue undertone makes it less of an "easter pastel" and more of a variation on winter white. The magnolia printed lining elevates the wow factor of this coat.
