A cool morning should not mean giving up color until spring!

Just imagine a deep sea-green jacket scattered with blush and cream roses — the color of a garden just before the light goes, worn on a grey Tuesday in the middle of the year. Now stop imagining, because the Margaret was made for exactly those days.

• Sea Green And Blush
  Soft pink roses and cream buds sit across a deep teal ground, a pairing that looks rich rather than sugary. It is a color combination that brings warmth back into your face on a dull day.
• Dense, Even Print
  The roses cover the whole jacket at a consistent scale, so there is no awkward placement across the bust or the pockets and the pattern flows unbroken over the seams.
• Light Enough To Forget
  The quilted fill is thin and the fabric is soft, so it settles onto the shoulders and stays out of the way. Warmth you notice only when you take it off.
• Practical Pockets
  The two side pockets are deep, cleanly set into the seam and reinforced at the corners — designed for keys, a phone and cold hands rather than for decoration.
• Complete Any Neutral
  Over grey, black, cream or denim it supplies all the color an outfit needs. Nothing else has to be interesting.

Giving up color for half the year is a habit, not a rule. A jacket like this quietly ends the habit, and it becomes the piece you put on for the specific reason that it lifts an otherwise grey day.
