Do You Want To Go To The Seaside?

TROUSERS NEW LOOK / TOP TOPSHOP / SHOES BIRKS / BAG TKMAXX / JUMPER PRIMARK / SUNGLASSES TIGER

I have officially lived by the south coast for a year now, and although there are obviously many things I miss about where I lived before, one thing I love is its proximity to the seaside. It sounds cliche, but there is nothing better, especially when you're tired or stressed out, than taking a walk along the beach. 

The other evening we took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed down to a seaside town for the evening. First we grabbed the most amazing dinner at a Turkish/Greek restaurant, then had to walk off our food babies along the beach, in perfect timing for the lovely lighting that is dusk.

I also tried out my new trousers (if you can't tell I'm a little obsessed with the whole baggy trouser thing), which are just the same as my blue printed ones but in a plain black, and I. love. them. I kinda wish they tapered at the bottom a bit more, but I can live with that as they are just so comfy! And I think they actually look pretty chic.

Gingham, You Say?

TROUSERS CHARITY SHOP / SHOES BIRKS / TOP ZARA / BAG TKMAXX / SUNGLASSES TIGER

I have always loved gingham and it has recently sprung back onto the high street with quite a vintage/50s type of feel, but have surprisingly I have never owned any, so I jumped at the chance of owning these trousers when I saw them in a charity shop. I feel like they are actually quite versatile for a printed trouser, and look great with a bit of a 90s twist when paired with converse, a crop top and an over-sized denim jacket.

But for a meal out with my family and a nice walk along some coastal towns to celebrate Father's Day, I thought a more laid back look would fit nicely. With my dad actually describing the look as 'very Audrey Hepburn' (thanks dad), I would say it is more of a 'granny chic' kind of look, and I'm feelin' it.
