Summer Thoughts and Pastel Shorts

My Spring/Summer Topshop picks!


So I have been absolutely loving Topshop's clothing at the moment, and so I thought as it is coming up to summer, I would do a spring/summer look-book for you! I love doing posts like this and I hope to do some more similar posts in the future! I hope you enjoy!

I picked outfit one because my absolute favourite colour to wear is this nude pink colour which I thinks look so lovely in this outfit. I also feel like tassels, crochet, e.t.c is going to be very in this year, especially this spring/summer. I picked one casual, and one more dressy pair of shoes to go with each outfit, and I am absolutely in love with both of these pairs, especially the black pair with the studs! I think they could be such a staple and go with pretty much anything.


 Pastels are always in come spring/summer, and let me just tell you know how much I love pastel/mint green! It is my go to summer colour to wear and I think the colour looks amazing on pretty much any skin tone. I feel like the floral headband I chose would be really cute for a festival, or even just for everyday as the flowers aren't too big or OTT. I also think the anklet I chose would look really nice if you wore this outfit to the beach, or anywhere really.

My favourite outfit out of the three I have created has got to be outfit three. I love how simple and pretty it looks, especially with the floral detailing in the shorts, which would match with the floral headband I picked out. I am absolutely in love with the platform sandals and I was even going to order them for myself, until the heartbreaking moment when I found they didn't have my tiny shoe size in stock! To make this outfit more vibrant, I chose a bright coral/orange bag, and some beautiful dangly earrings which I think are great for festival season.


What are your opinions on this look book?

What are your go to summer fashion items?

Edinburgh!

So in October, me and my family visited Edinburgh for a few days, and I absolutely loved it! It was so beautiful, all the buildings, the castle, the atmosphere, everything! Even the bagpipes were annoyingly Scottish, which I absolutely loved. We went site seeing mainly, as well as going to the zoo, and doing some shopping (I even bought a tartan scarf- how Scottish!). I never got to do a post about this, so I thought I would now include some photos of my experience of Edinburgh.









We travelled by train, which for a long journey I have never really done before, however I much preferred it to flying or driving! We even upgraded to first class which was really nice! In kings cross station whilst we were waiting for out train, there was a Harry Potter shop which had some really interesting things in.



Our apartment we stayed in was so lovely, and I got a double bed room all to myself which was nice, and the view in my room looked straight on to the royal mile street was so pretty. You could even hear the bagpipes being played in the street!


 





That was the view from Edinburgh castle, which was so so pretty! The view was amazing, and the castle itself was great too. We even stopped in the cafe and I had a super nice chocolate cake!





We then went on a walk around the area, which was so lovely, all the buildings looked so historic and beautiful. 


















We then went to Edinburgh zoo, which was amazing because I am a huge animal fan, and this is probably the best zoo I have been to. You were able to get to close to the animals, especially the zebra, and we saw the only 2 pandas in the UK! 




On the final night, we went out for a meal, this is what I wore: black dress from primark, chelsea boots from new look, necklace from new look, nail polish by Barbara Daley. 




This was the picture of the main area of our apartment, and the view from the apartment! 


Have you been to Edinburgh before?
