Oh, I do like to be beside the seaside.... But possibly not when it's cold and misty!
Yes, one recent sunny weekend, the fam and I decided to head to the coast to get some FRESH air and soak up the sun! Sadly, the further away we got from our little home town , the cloudier and greyer it got. However, this did make for quite an atmospheric blog backdrop! (Silver lining to every cloud and all that...)

(Silver lining to every cloud and all that...)
We're in that weird 'transitional' period at the moment where it's sunny and bright one minute, then cold and miserable again the next (see pictures!). So, I have been looking all over for some lighter jacket / coat type things that will take me through to Summer. And this was the winner. For my seaside themed post, I wore my stripey new New Look jacket - I think this is a total bargain for only £25.
To complete my look - more stripes! A stripey shirt and a stripey watch are the dream team...
Outfit: Stripe Collarless Jacket - New Look, Eva Jeans - River Island, Slip On Pumps - Missguided*, Shirt - River Island
Accessories: Clutch Bag - Warehouse*, Classic Canterbury Watch - Daniel Wellington
I HAVE to point out my favourite piece in this outfit... This beautiful Daniel Wellington watch. OMG I'm in love!! <3 I have been coveting one of these watches for months now and finally my dreams came true at the recent Burns Jewellers event. Yes, I won this beauty in the raffle that they held to raise money for a local hospice.
*Be prepared to see this in every single outfit post from now on... ;-)
I am LOVING these MG pumps at the moment!I have styled them up in a couple of outfit posts for my blog (see my Missguided in Manchester OOTD post) and I am literally living in them at the moment.
Hope you like my look! Would you wear stripes on stripes on stripes?!
Your shoes are so original! Love them!! Great outfit!

I love stripes! My favourite look is the marinelook and I really think stripes on stripes work when it's in a same colourscheme
