Whimsical Wandering

Hello! It feels very good to be back and writing blog posts again as I've been away so long you've probably forgotten who I am. I found it really good to take some time to myself and settle into university life and my course, which I have definitely done! As much as I love blogging, I've been doing a lot of grown up stuff and I think I now have worked out a good blogging/work/life balance.

If you should describe my style my style at the moment it would be whimsical. I love  pastel colours, floral prints, and whimsical is just a very nice word. I've been wearing a lot of floaty and feminine clothes lately, and this is one of my favourite outfits. The prints on the blue skirt are really balanced out by the baggy pink t-shirt and the fun colourful shell bag is such a statement piece.

This bag is from skinnydip and I am so obsessed with it! It's so shiny and looks amazing when you put it in different lights.

This T-shirt is from H&M and fits so nicely and makes me feel so confident. (I can't really say the same about H&M's sizing, but you know.) The skirt is from Miss Selfridge and cost a grand total of six pounds. I love sales.

The perfect addition to this outfit? A flower crown, of course. My collection is constantly growing. I don't have a problem, I can stop any time I want.

Hope you enjoyed this post and look out for lots of Halloween posts over the next week! 

Neon Exhibition and Blackpool Photography

I love Blackpool. Let's be honest, not many people would say that; it's unbelievably tacky, rains about 363 days of the year, but I think it has a really lovely charm to it. As I grew up visiting every year for the illuminations, I have such happy memories there and I think the place has such a nice atmosphere. 

I went to see the exhibition Neon: The Charged Line. I got so excited when I found out I was going because I am obsessed with neon signs. This exhibition was a photographers dream: so bright, colourful and shiny. I also had time to visit some of my favourite spots in Blackpool; Coral Island arcade, which was also full of neon from the games and the lights. I also visited the north pier arcades which were a lot more deserted, but I found a really interesting beauty in it. I think there is such a hidden beauty in Blackpool that people need to see beyond cheap tat and hen nights.
