Kimono Jacket

 I wore this for a mini day trip to Brighton on a hot, but very windy day. I wanted to be super comfortable, even though, in hindsight, the sandals I wore were NOT made for walking along the pebbly beach. Ouch. The kimono jacket is a relatively new purchase from Winter Kate, Nicole Richie's label. I love the boho feel and I love, love, love the woven leather detailing on shoulders.
Whilst in Brighton I enjoyed a surly service, overpriced chips (£3.50 for a small portion, anyone? Anyone?), seagulls trying to land on my head and crowded trains from and to London. I can't wait to go again.

Try to ignore the scratch on my thigh. My cat decided it's a jolly good idea to use my leg as an anchor to break her fall.

I wore:
Kimono jacket: Winter Kate
Sunnies: Ray-Ban
Vest top: Zara
Denim shorts: French Connection
Necklace: Kenneth Jay Lane
Sandals: Miss Trish Of Capri

Also....we have a winner of a Vjera Vilicnik's dress giveaway. Congratulations to Ivana M. and thank you to everyone who entered the giveaway. :)

    oh I love that beach and actually we are looking for a similar one because we need some pebbles :P anyway, I think it's a brilliant way to glam up your denim shorts by adding such a delicate kimono.

    The Winter Kate range has the most beautiful prints - your kimono is a perfect example. And ouch re the scratch. I remember when I used to have a kitten who would clamber up my legs. Ouch, ouch, ouch.

      @sue, mine don't climb, but they sure as hell like to be "anchored" on whatever surface they happen to lie on. Even if that is my leg

    Perfect outfit! I love how your kimono matches the rocks, your shirt matches the sky, and your shorts match the ocean, did you do that on purpose because that's pretty amazing!!
