english summer rain.

What's with this rain? I know there have been a couple of nice days here and there, but I'm getting quite bored of dressing like it's autumn in June.

#HomeMovieNight with HMV.

Hands up who owns at least one shelf full of DVDs? Ok, and hands up who never watches any of them? Yeah, me too. 

I guess part of my problem is that I don't actually have a DVD player, so when HMV sent over a #HomeMovieNight kit I took it over to my good friend Lily's house. And I arrived just in time for Wagamama that her mum had ordered us from Deliveroo! 

We were definitely in for a lovely, cosy night..

viva mexico! cacti and tacos.

Maaaaan, I love Mexican food. Especially when it's hands-on, messy, and packed full of different flavours and textures. But do you know what I like even more? Having appropriate attire to wear while eating said cuisine - a cactus covered dress! Now all I need is a flight to Tulum..

Keep reading to see my outfit details & my favourite fresh and crunchy taco recipe! 

a long weekend in south devon.

Since my childhood home got sold, Bristol has been feeling much more like home. That in turn means that whenever I do find the time to visit Devon, it feels like a mini holiday, especially now that the weather is getting warmer. 

British seaside holidays or staycations are so popular - of course you can get amazingly cheap flights to Europe, but if you're strapped for time or have a lot of things to bundle into your car (including kids) it can be a lot less stressful to just drive a couple of hours to the coast.

Here's what you can get up to in three days in the South Hams.

sharing the happiness - a day at stourhead.

Last week, one of my best friends and I headed out into the countryside on a little adventure. We were off to have a day of happiness, which for us involved a picnic, spending time together, and wandering around in one of the most beautiful places we've ever been in the UK!

dinner at the square, bristol.

A few weeks ago on a warm, rainy evening, we were invited to the top of Park Street for dinner. We were headed to The Square Kitchen to try out their new Spring menu. 

the whitepepper - spring / summer 16.

It's been months since Emily and I took these snaps of my cute shirt from The Whitepepper - I was still in tights and this was actually a really cold day! They sent over a copy of their magazine which has one of our images in, and I thought I'd share it with you.
