I am unofficially naming Alison Hammond as the queen of a co-ord, as the TV presenter has worn a high street two piece almost every day on This Morning this week.
Like my colleague Leanne, who actually is the queen of co-ords (you can read more about that here), Alison has realised the potential of just how chic a two matching separates can be. And Thursday's look - a vibrant striped top and matching trousers - was one of her best yet.
Alison's striped top and trousers combo is from JD Williams, with both pieces on sale - collectively, her outfit will set you back only £30.80. Talk about a steal.

She wore it with the matching Printed Linen Mix Wide Leg Trousers. Also made from 20% linen, what I love most about these are not only the wide leg silhouette - so airy for the summer - but the elasticated waist. Tummy-friendly trousers are our absolute favourite!
EXACT MATCH: JD Williams Stripe Boxy Cut Top & Trousers

Wear the trousers with a simple plain T-shirt or camisole, or the top with jeans, denim shorts or a summery skirt. Or make like Alison and pair them. In my opinion, it's a striking outfit that is worth wearing together.
Both of the pieces are selling fast with the trousers sold out in some sizes, however you'll find sizes between 8 - 32 still in stock. As for the top, you can grab that in sizes 8 -32.
Alison's This Morning outfits this week
I love when Alison and Dermot join forces to host This Morning. Not only is the chat between the two hilarious, but Alison always gives a good outfit - and they're usually from the high street.

© InstagramAnother day, another co-ord; I loved this check top and skirt, it was so glamorous. From River Island, the blue check satin blouse has a drape neck and is sleeveless, with the matching skirt maxi length and in the same pattern.
