Gwen Stefani relaxes with her family on the beach in Cannes... while wearing an over-sized Paris T-shirt

She was spotted leaving the UK at the weekend as she headed to France for a family holiday.
But it seems that Gwen Stefani may have got confused about which part of the country she was flying to as she wore a T-shirt with the word Paris written on the front, even though she was sunning herself in Cannes on Thursday.
The No Doubt singer stuck to her style guns during her day on the beach with husband Gavin Rossdale and their two young sons, wearing her usual red lipstick and with her blonde hair poker straight.

Know where you are? Gwen Stefani wore a Paris T-shirt on Thursday, despite the fact that she was holidaying in Cannes

The singer, who has been spending every moment of the school holidays with Kingston and Zuma, was the doting mum yet again as she played with them in the sand.
But instead of stripping down to a bikini herself and showing off her much-lauded athletic figure, Gwen stayed almost completely covered up.
She paired the oversized T-shirt, which read 'Paris, France', with a calf length white skirt, held up by a black belt.

On mum duty: The star kept charge of all their belongings and took charge of the day out while the boys played

Covered up: Gwen made sure that she didn't flash much flesh, even protecting herself from the sun with an umbrella

Looking not quite beach-ready, Gwen wore her long blonde hair perfectly styled, and instead of going bare-faced she wore a full face of make-up.
Obviously wanting to keep up her trademark image, despite the fact that she was having a day by the sea, Gwen stood out compared to all the other bikini-clad holiday-makers.
And the American star seemed more concerned about playing with her little ones than sunning herself, wading into the sea so that she could keep an eye on them.

Trademark look: even though she was relaxing on the beach, she kept her trademark hairstyle and bright red lipstick

Not so low-key: Instead of going simple for her day at the beach, Gwen had clearly put a lot of thought into her outfit

Her British rocker husband was also getting involved, spotted sitting in the surf as he splashed around with his boys.
