Hardly Made for Miami! Rosie Fortescue looks more Sloane Ranger than beach babe on New Year break

You can take the girl out of Chelsea but you can't take Chelsea out of the girl...

Well, only if the girl in question is Rosie Fortescue.

Holidaying in Miami for the New Year, the Made In Chelsea star looked like she was heading down the King's Road to shop in a designer boutique rather than hitting the beach with her family.

Wearing a long-sleeved blouse, high-waisted skater skirt and of course a Fedora hat, Rosie headed down the boardwalk to meet her sister and mother on Friday afternoon.

But it looked as though the trip would be more work than play, as the fashion blogger carried a laptop in her hand, ready to write about the Miami beach style she clearly hadn't embraced.

Not that her outfit wasn't an enviable ensemble, with the electric blue and cat print detail on her blouse adding some quirky edge to a seemingly simple shirt and skirt combo.

All work no play: The reality star carried her laptop to the beach which suggests the trip wouldn't be quite so leisurely

A golden pendant embedded with the letter 'R' bounced as she walked down the beach towards the sun loungers occupied by her family members.

But if there is any one person from the cast of the e4 series who could have used a healthy dose of Vitamin D it is Rosie, whose alabaster skin stands out from her bronzed buddies Millie Mackintosh and Sophia Sassoon.

However after rocking a bikini the day before, by covering up today at least her pale skin gets a break from the sun's harsh UV rays... every cloud has a silver lining.

But there didn't seem to be any clouds to mire the hot afternoon, only a brisk sea breeze that threatened to de-crown the 23-year old and her mother who sported a Cuban hat.

Mummy Fortescue could have passed for Rosie's sister, who looked youthful in a far more beach-appropriate outfit consisting of a plum bikini under a patterned kaftan.

However her daughter did make some allowances on her London girl outfit by ditching the black ballet pumps so she could feel the warm sand between her toes.

Too much: The extra layers may have been a precaution for Rosie who displayed her alabaster skin in a bikini the day before
