Day At The Park

A couple shots taken at St James Park in London. My boyfriend and I spent the afternoon soaking in the (rare) London sunshine, lying on the grass, gazing at beautiful flowers and sharing an ice cream cone. I also attempted to climb a tree. Turns out I'm really bad at that!

Top: Mango, Jeans: Zara, Flats: Kenneth Cole, Purse: Chanel

I bought this top at Mango together with the hi-low skirt I featured in my previous post. I had very much underestimated London weather - it was freezing while I was there! With only a light cardigan or two, I knew I had to pick up a couple slightly warmer pieces to make it through the weeks I was there. This sweater is lightweight enough to pair with shorts and sandals for warmer months, but substantial enough to layer with scarf and jeans for cooler days. Also love the elbow patch detail that adds a boyish touch. I paired the outfit with a loose fishtail side braid.

[I didn't make it much further up the tree than this. Might not be obvious, but I felt like I was losing my balance!]
