From Brighton With Love | DAY 1

Earlier this week I went on a short break to Brighton with my boyfriend and two of our close friends. We had such an amazing time exploring the Lanes and chilling by the seaside (Not to mention spending way too much on arcade games!)
*Still haven't posted the Barcelona pictures, I know, but they really need to get organised so thought I'd update with a short series first ^_^!*

Here are a few of my favourite moments from Day 1 of our trip...



Travelling there was so easy! We'd pre-booked trains and all our changes were made so quickly - after 4 *Surprisingly short-feeling* hours or so we'd made it and I'd already fallen in love with the train station!


 After dropping our bags off at the hotel we took a walk to The Lanes (So nearby!) and found a really cute pub called The Mesmerist. Not only did they have some pretty cool wall-art, but they also had a photobooth! (Which I later realised was a pretty regular occurrence in the pubs/bars nearby - go Brighton! XD) alongside some of the best burgers we'd had in a while! *I went for the chilli-burger, and all were served with chips coated in spice - so good!*

Happy Easter!

20.04.14 - Easter Sunday

 
 Hi! Here's a little OOTD / nails / present catch up from Easter! Had a really chilled day with the family, watching films and eating way too much chocolate! 

 OOTD - 

I bought this dress around a year ago during a trip to New York, from a store called Century 21. Despite loving it at the time, I always seem to find it a bit too flowery / bright to wear as an everyday look - hence it's becoming my go-to 'Easter Look'! 

Dress - Century 21
Brooch - Vintage Fair
 
As the dress is a bit low, I decided to add this 'vintage' brooch I picked up sometime last year at a fair near the Custard Factory. It's a really individual piece, and I love the design of it - no idea whether it's a mass-produced piece but I've always thought it was pretty unique and perfect to change up an outfit.

 

Nails - 'Easter Manicure'

 

'Manicure' with a twist
Blending in

 Hadn't planned to do anything with my nails, but seeing this yellow in my sister's room completely changed my mind! It's a really bright, OTT colour, so I decided to play it down a little by creating this variation of a French manicure - Easter-style! Despite it not being the tidiest finish, I'm pretty pleased with this look and it fit really well with the dress. 

Presents!


Wrapped and ready!
Once opened...
