Best beach cover up: The Kate shirt from Isabella Oliver

July 24, 2010 · 8 comments

This is the Kate shirt from Isabella Oliver 365: it’s absolutely the BEST beach cover up. There’s something laid back yet ineffably chic about a slightly over-sized cotton shirt with the sleeves rolled up, worn over a bikini on holiday, straw bag in hand, flat gold sandals on feet. This one is particularly good, as it has a generous tail so you can get away with no shorts underneath…it also has stylish navy & white buttons down the front.

And — it’s on 50% sale! At a bargain £34.50 reduced from £69 (There’s a fab blue & white striped version too.)

This photo was taken on the swimming pool terrace at the W Barcelona last week.

I do look rather grumpy, but I assure you I was having a perfectly splendid time.

You look great!
Is that a tattoo above your ankle?
I’d be interested to know what you think of tattoos (apologies if you’ve written about them before)?

You kind of look like Lady Gaga in this photo… when she’s normal, not when she’s gaga.

Oh I absolutely love the sheer beauty of this simplicity all put together. no more kaftan, no crazy prints, just beautiful white crispness — and i love how it totally offsets your blond hair so perfectly. I might not look as good, but this is a real breath of fresh air in the summery prints we see in such excess!

An oversized white shirt features in my grown-up guide to holidays — and this one’s perfect! You look fab.

You look very comfortable and I love oversized shirts on hot days to wear around the house. I still prefer wearing a sarong for the beach.
