It was a family affair at the Superbowl yesterday with Chris Martin performing with his band Coldplay at half time and ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow there to support him with their children Apple and Moses.
And Gwyneth, as ever, looked super stylish just as we'd expect, making a casual outfit look perfectly put together in sleek blue jeans, shades and a very cute bit of knitwear to finish off the look.
The jumper is by Co, an up and coming brand from Los Angeles, started by couple Stephanie Danan and Justin Kern. Co is all about luxurious basics that fit into your existing wardrobe with ease. Think clean lines, tailoring and a muted colour palette. Gwyneth's little knit, previously spotted on Selena Gomez, is perfect for this transitional time between winter and spring.

The image sees the girls bringing their fashion A-game, with 11-year-old Apple sporting a navy and turquoise bomber with black and white stars across the shoulder, while Blue Ivy was hard to miss in a vibrant jacket with electric neon zig zags.
The Oscar-winner cut a relatively stylish figure by dressing he slender frame in a white top with a high neckline and tight blue jeans.
With her blonde tresses left loose in sleek waves, Gwyneth protected her eyes from the glare with round sunglasses, and carried a handbag over her shoulder.
