Floating Around Florence

As my Nan fancied a trip to Tuscany this year, off we went. With my DianaF camera to capture the sights we were ready to go. Starting in the beautiful city of Florence, we spent the first day roaming the streets to take in all the picturesque sights the city had to offer. What we found… LEATHER! So much leather everywhere, from market stalls to high end shops this city was just full of Leather. With me being such a big fan of view points I always do my research on the best places to get a view of the city from above. Two in particular stood out to me, first of which was the Piazzale Michelangelo where we sat and watched the sun go down on our first evening. Secondly the Campanile, 414 steps up and situated right besides the Duomo this gave more of a close up view of the city and its many red rooftops. This we saved for the second day so we had more energy for all those steps. Another Florence sight that amazed me had to be the Ponte Vecchio, I mean a bridge full of jewellers, WOW! On a whole we most definitely enjoyed what Florence had to offer.






Day 1. Wearing vintage inspired floral dress with lace collar found on a stall in Spitalfields Market in London, along with my all time favourite tan backpack.






Day 2.  Wearing my beloved Wildfox twiggy sunglasses that just seem to finish off all my outfits perfectly. Lilac checked smock dress found on asos.com and mustard yellow shoes from Urban Outfitters.

Beach Huts - Melbourne

Throwing back as its Thursday, to Feb this year and my day in Melbourne. It was finally my time to visit the beach huts of Brighton Beach. After seeing many photos of these, they were high up on my to do list. Even though the weather wasn't really in my favour it was a lovely day, I stocked up on my Aussie reads and and enjoyed some down time in Melbourne.










Attire for the day included my beach ready juju jellies, vintage skirt, cream patterned vest top with a denim jacket. Bag of choice as per usual a backpack, this one, brought from Topshop comes nearly everywhere with me and has had it fair share of wear and tear. Finished off with a pair of heart shaped glasses, Its always good to the world out of a love heart!!!

A day in Stockholm

A Photo Diary of my day in Stockhom. My first visit to Sweden and first glimpse of Cherry Blossom this year. Floppy hat on, vintage cardigan on and we are ready to go. One thing I love about being back in cooler weather, getting all wrapped up in some of my most loved clothing. The day started with a walk to Kungstradgarden where the Cherry Blossom was beginning to bloom, then onto the streets of the beautiful old town. 










Wearing one of my favourite vintage cardigans along with a floppy hat, backpack from Urban Outfitters on an all black base.
