Enjoying the Great British Sun Shine..

Hello!

Today's post is a mix of everything I probably should have posted BEFORE I wen't on holiday last week (whoops). But, as I'm finally back, I'll be posting lots of outfit photos, taken while I was away soon, so make sure you check them out too!
------------------------------
In the last few weeks, I've been spending lots of time enjoying the British sun shine, on some lovely day trips! Since my last post, I've been: trekking around Snowdon National Park for 5 days with a group of great girls - fully kitted in outdoor walking kits (that's right) and spending a few days hunting down every charity shop in my local region and eating plenty of chocolate ice cream!

Before I post a few photos to sum up what's been a lot of fun, I'll warn you, there won't be any photos from my Gold Duke of Edinburgh, as it wasn't necessarily a fashionable experience...

So in temperatures that nearly exceeded my 25 degrees target, me and my two friends Lauren and Sarah, ventured out to a local market town, for a day of rummaging through second hand shops (a very productive way to spend a saturday). I managed to sneak a few purchases, along with several iced drinks, which we enjoyed while sitting by the river.

What were wearing: 

Lauren: Printed Shorts - Miss Selfridge , Top - Next, Bag/Shoes/Hat - Peacocks , Glasses - RayBan.
Me: Top - New Look, Shorts - River Island, Belt & Sun Glasses - Primark, Sandals - Clarks.
Sarah: Top - New Look, Shorts - River Island, Shoes - Dorothy Perkins, Necklace - Boots.

My little purchases inclue this lovely pink skirt which was £2.50 from a charity shop, that I'm hoping to pair with a crochet skirt I hunted down for €10 while I was on holiday.. 

It's great to enjoy local towns and cities when the weathers nice, as it feels like your a million miles from the usual rainy UK! It was a lovely day, and I recommend hunting down some local attractions to fill your holiday of fun while the weather is nice.

I've got to catch up on some all important Zzzzzz's, so I'll speak soon...

Love

There's no place like home! X

I'm Home!
So I've had an amazing time in the Lake District - climbing up the mountain side, it's fair to say we got lost a fair few times! I also got my GCSE results sitting on a rock up a hill, I was amazed by the glittering A*'s! I was especially surprised, as GCSE results have been their lowest in years, so to achieve 7A*'s was a bit of a shock, to be honest! My only disappointment was a B for Spanish - but I think it's being re-marked (fingers crossed!). So yeah - not to bad for a BLONDIE eyyyy?
As for the lake district, I don't have any fashion secrets to tell you - It seems the only clothing worth wearing is a good pair of walking boots... so it won't surprise you, that as soon as I got home, I did LOTS of online shopping!
So yes, it was a lovely day away - and I've got a lovely photo to share with you. (to any serious shopaholics - please look away, as the state of my clothing may be too much!)
