A RAINY DAY IN COWES




I had the day off on Saturday so decided to go with my friend to what she calls her special safe place- Cowes. The day started off promising with the weather till about 3pm when it decided to pour down with rain, not ideal.
We caught the Red Jet which only took 25 minutes which was GREAT (I am partial to getting a tad seasick on the waters) When we arrived Cowes reminded me of Waiheke Island in New Zealand a bit, in the fact that it's a nice lil island community and gives you that little escape from city life you're after, although I'd say Cowes is a bit more built up them the lovely Waiheke Island. Even though the weather was shite on that day I could still tell that this place is one of those short holiday destinations you can go to and unwind if you don't have enough cash on hand to go aboard. Even if it's just for the day you still get that sense of relaxation. My friend Kelsey took me to a lovely little restaurant on East Cowes called the Lighthouse where the food was so nice. I had a duck stir-fry and she got the fish and chips (which I later wished i'd got, because it smelt so nice)

For the day trip away I was very conscious of the weather while still maintaining a bit of style. So I teamed my grey levi jeans with my H&M black shirt with pleather collar detail, which is fast becoming one of my fav things to wear haha I'm a sucker for a good shirt. As I needed a bit more protection I decided on wearing my 3D River Island bomber style jacket which I'm totally in love with. I love the feel of it, I bought it in a size 14 not expecting it to be so big on me but I love it, I also love the 3D texture feel of the design. I'll try get a close-up pic of the jacket later and hopefully you can see what i'm talking about. I picked up the jacket for £10 in the River Island sale... SCORE!
