Vintage City Guide

I have decided that I am going to start making use of my huge pice of Vintage traders cards and favourite shops and start posting a guide to vintage shopping on her with a google map that has all the locations in... this may take a while so bear with me - but it's nice to have a project to get stuck into! xx

Sitges - The Wedding

Emily was of course beautiful. Piera did of course cry ;) x all in all a wonderful day x (and apparently it's good luck if it rains on your wedding day!) x

Zooey news!!! x

so excited!!!

Barcelona! - the lowdown

I have been terribly slow in writing anything about Barcelona - sorry.. I wanted to do a proper city guide with all the places I visited and just haven't had time - instead here is a little summary!

I'm afraid I was a terrible tourist in Barcelona... I was fully equipped with map and guidebook yet my fear of looking like a tourist along with my sheer relief at being able to relax meant that I didn't really see any sights!

We were staying just off the ramblas (the main busy street) in the acta hotel so luckily enough were central enough to just wander - which is what i did! x

When i first arrived i was on my own so dumped my bags and set out to explore... right into a vintage fair! woohoo! apparently there is one every Thursday in the square...

It was packing up but i snapped up a vintage seltzer bottle for 30E which then filled my entire easyjet hand baggage allowance so i could buy no more!

After a lot more exploring Sam arrived and we went out for blue sangria!? (yup! blue!?)

the next day we hung around mostly at the beach before heading to Sitges for the reason of the trip - Emily's wedding!

Sitges was lovely - I would definitely recommend a trip to the 'Hotel Romantic' and the marina... although watch out for the nudist beach on the way! - we accidentally sunbathed there for a day without even realising! x

a proper guide to come soon folks :) x sorry x

busy Britannia

Home sweet Home from Barcelona - Having just eaten the biggest bowl of pasta ever (literally - i think i just had an entire pack of spaghetti to myself!) i am gearing myself up for a manic week. After flight delays coming home last night we arrived back to Hampstead this morning only to empty our suitcases onto the floor and change before heading off to work again :(
I did manage to fit in a sneaky drink tonight before coming home though at the Book Club again. This time to celebrate Sugarhill boutique opening online. Selling a collection of cute floral and printed dresses all made by brother and sister duo Alex and Pawel and utilising Bali skills and workshops they definately have some summer essentials..I particularly like the cute hawaii playsuit :) x

Home time :(
