Day Trip: Lowry at The Tate

Fashion - By Alexandra Stedman

I actually prefer the permanent collection (which is free to visit) – the beautiful JW Waterhouse ‘Lady of Shallot’ and two of my favourite Hockney paintings: ‘A Bigger Splash’ and ‘Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy’…

Jacket: H+M. Sunglasses: Valentino. Embellished wool jumper: Twiggy for M+S Collection. Jeans: Koral. Bag: £35, Accessorize

Accessorize, £35

I saw this bag when we were prepping the November issue of Red and HAD to get it. It’s just like the Victoria Beckham one I have been obsessing over…and I always buy small cross-body bags but for work, I need something on a larger scale to carry all my wares.

The Victoria Beckham version, £1695. If only…

      No, the H&M coat was a while ago…it's also not warm enough for the storms and 80mph winds we're about to endure this weekend apparebtly!

    I love Tate Britain. Its very close to our London offices and my favourite lunchtime/de-stressing hangout! I also love the jacket, you can always trust H&M for a nifty thrifty item of fashion! Ann x
