So I was recently in Nottingham visiting my friend at uni, and it is such a nice place! The town centre is so big, and all the buildings are so pretty, naturally we spent most of the time eating and drinking though while we all caught up.
Annies burger shack was the first place we visited, and a few cocktails and blog pictures later we finally got a table- and it was worth it. I had a giant taco veggie burger including rice, tortilla chips, salsa ect with sweet potato fries on the side, it was amazing. As a veggie burger fanatic, I would definitely recommend. One of my friends had a peanut butter and jam beef burger, She wasn't quite as happy with her choice by the last bite when her mouth was glued together with peanut butter, but it had to be tried. I'm surprised they haven't opened a second restaurant in London or in any other big cities, but for now if anyone is ever in Nottingham you must visit, and let me know what you get!
Anyway we spent the rest of our day in a food coma, until we had enough energy to go out and buy some wine for the evening. The outfit i'm wearing turned out to be perfect for hiding a food baby and for the sunny/extremely windy weather of Notts. I had been meaning to style this dress for ages. I picked it up in a charity shop for £2 pounds a while back (i think it may be nightwear) as i thought it would be a handy layer to have in my wardrobe. I dressed it with one of my fave Zara jumpers, however I think it would also work well under an over sized sweatshirt.
I find charity shops are the perfect place to get simple pieces of clothing, that you just want as a layer or extra detail to complete an outfit. They're mostly very cheap, and you may end up with so much great stuff that you didn't even know existed/ or that you were after anyway. The prices are nothing compared to high street, and your giving to charity so its a win win!
I didn't have a chance to do any blog pictures the second day, which was probably for the best as I would have looked very hungover, But we just had brunch at gorgeous cafe called Delilahs (photo of the inside on my Instagram), which was lovely, and of course did a bit of shopping.
