Last week was very exciting for everyone here at O&C HQ \u2013 like children at Christmas, we dived into boxes of brand new Joules pieces and were not disappointed. As always, Joules delivered on style, practicality and uniqueness with a brilliant colour palette and a beautiful selection of bespoke prints for us to marvel over. If their mid season collection is a sign of things to come for Autumn\/Winter, then we are very excited for the colder months! This year, the nation\u2019s favourite family outfitter has created a bold and on-trend collection of transitional pieces that will easily see you through those funny, unpredictable middle months. (We\u2019re looking at you, September!)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We could go on for days about our love for the new collection, but we know that lovers of Joules are a bright and busy bunch, so we\u2019ll just stick to these three standout pieces from the mid season collection. For when the weather can\u2019t make up its mind (we certainly know what that feels like!) we love the Coast Waterproof Jacket<\/a> for staying cool and dry whatever the weather, and the bespoke floral print will perk up any rainy day outfit. For warmer days out in the sun, we can\u2019t get enough of the Calla Top<\/a>– with a gorgeous waterfall design print and dipped hem it\u2019s ideal for wearing with jeans, leggings, skirts, shorts…you name it! Our third and final top pick has to be the beautifully simple and stylish Carly Dress<\/a>: great for work or play and the perfect design for carrying you through to next season.<\/p>\n With Joules, it\u2019s so easy to create a casual capsule wardrobe that you can wear again and again, and this mid-season look book is no different. Jewel-tones are the main event of the men\u2019s Joules mid-season collection, with classic pieces such as the Woody Polo Shirt<\/a> offering the quintessential, laid back Joules look. Quirkier designs still showcase the light-hearted Joules sense of humour, our favourite being the country inspired \u201cPheasant Plucker\u201d graphic tee<\/a>, available in a rich, teal shade. Teal and navy also feature on the premium Latino Polo Shirt<\/a>, which features large embroidery to the torso and sleeves in complementary shades. We think it would look great under a gilet or hoody for a laid back, preppy look at the weekend, or with shorts and deck shoes for when the weather\u2019s a little warmer.<\/p>\n Joules children\u2019s wear is by far one of our most popular ranges, and it\u2019s so easy to see why \u2013 bright colours, practical designs, and durable fabrics make them the first choice for parents up and down the country. We couldn\u2019t discuss our favourite Joules pieces without giving the Kinnaird Padded Coat<\/a> a mention. This bright kid\u2019s coat has been designed not only with a baffle quilt and grown hood for colder days, but can be packed into its own pocket for the ultimate in convenience, making it ideal for family day trips! And while we\u2019re planning family outings, why not kit them out with this quirky dinosaur print Patchback Rucksack<\/a> for all of their little essentials? Or, take them out splishing and sploshing in the summer showers complete with Dalmation print wellies<\/a> \u2013 perfect for the puddle jumpers!<\/p>\nMen\u2019s Joules Top Picks<\/h3>\n
