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.

Just a quick post, pictures from my second day in Liverpool. Kept debating whether to post this or not as i don't really like the photos, but here it is anyway. 

I bought this skirt for a few pounds a couple of  years ago in a charity shop, and I still love it, so easy to throw on with a baggy jumper. It is normally ankle length, (think i rolled it up one to many times), but I find this is such an easy length to wear for a casual look. 

The colour of this jumper is one of my faves atm, perfect for this sunny spring like weather! Yellow tones are an easy way to brighten up a monotone outfit when a little splash of colour is needed.

Been meaning to do this post for about two weeks now, but i've been super busy and had no broadband at home for ages, but about 50 other blog posts on Double denim later, its finally uploaded.

Took these during a cute spontaneous day in London with my friend, trying to not spend a full day shopping on oxford street as we usually do. Went to art galleries, vintage shopping, and eating.. of course. There is the cutest little Turkish restaurant, called Gem, in Islington which I

would defiantly recommend if you're near by. The menu is chosen by the chef that day, and they give you lots of mini traditional dishes to share. You cant beat a bit of humous and halloumi. We also went to see The curious incident of the dog in the night time at the theatre, which was also amazing!

Anyway, went for an easy double demin look, for a long day walking around London, and of course a pair of cosy nike's, An over load of demin is so on trend right now, and so easy just to through together- you cant go wrong!

hello hello, yes i am still alive.

Feels like forever ago since my last post, been crazily busy recently. Work, portfolio and organising my travel plans is taking over my life. Anyway just thought id share a few photos from a little walk the other day.

Please appreciate my two fave things in life rolled into one-leather culottes! I've been waiting to wear these ever since i brought them home and realized they are to big, and as i cant get hold of a smaller size i refuse to wait any longer. They may be the biggest man repellor, confirmed by the look of my boyfriends face when i walked through the door, but that's right up my street if you go by the rest of my wardrobe. 

I'm the biggest coat addict this year, but as my bank balance isn't having any of it and i cant get into my savings account (where all my money goes), charity shops are the only way forward. Not that i have any issues with this, as you can tell from from my other posts, i enjoy an original piece not current in the shops. My Sheep style coat finishing off this outfit perfectly for a walk in the cold- and yes that is me taking a selfie with a horse.

 I have an obsession with going through my mums old clothes (and my dad's occasionally) from when they were younger. Every now and again I find a cute statement piece, which has made its way back into fashion, and therefore into my wardrobe. I love a one off piece that no one else has, which has turned me into such a hoarder and why you'll never find me selling my wardrobe on Depop, ill thank present me one day. Anyway this coat once belonged to my mum, and black coats are always needed. I'd found this in summer, and have been excited to bring it out since then, although i did remember it being slightly longer which was a bit disappointing. Massive ankle length coats are my favorites.

Then of course stripes have to be somewhere in my outfit, this skirt is so cute and cosy, and works so perfectly with a layered slouchy outfit. I bought this Primark jumper as a versatile layer for my winter wardrobe, it is meant to be a low v neck and mid thigh length, not that you can tell from the imagines. I never used to shop in Primark much but this year its upped its game, i'm finding so many classic essential pieces, especially shoes and jumpers. Always worth a look!
