What I'm Wearing:
Vintage Floral Shorts & Black Lace Waistcoat, Primark Straw Hat & Sunglasses, H&M Bikini Top &Topshop Sandals

Edinburgh in Photographs:

Edinburgh was an awesome city: apart from the cringeful crowds of painfully dorky tourists, I got to visit some quirky vintage shops, drink ridiculous amounts of organic lemonade and I even went to the cinema (Admitedly, I went to see the same movie twice: The Hangover, which I can officially say is my favourite comedy of all time.) Now, I am back in Spain: ready to soak up the sun and do huge amounts of freelance fashion work (I have 12 deadlines in total! ahh!) until I head to London for five weeks. My dissertation is also looming: 8000 words on Truman Capote's Breakfast at Tiffany's: so the research must begin soon.

For now, I am off to enjoy the sunset and eat barbequed fish. Oh, and drink sugarfree red-bull: I'm addicted!

That first picture of that building,
is my favourite building in the world!
I'm so glad you came to visit Scotland and went to the Grassmarket :D It's so quirky and definitely the best place for vintage in Scotland!
I am a keen follower of your blog and find your outfits always very inspiring, your quirkiness sort of takes the mickey out of how serious we are in the UK.
Enjoy Spain :D
Love Sophie in Scotland

We should be meticulous and discriminating in all the intelligence we give. We should be extraordinarily aware in giving advice that we would not dream up of following ourselves. Most of all, we ought to escape giving advisor which we don't follow when it damages those who woo assume us at our word.

A humankind begins cutting his discernment teeth the earliest without surcease he bites eccentric more than he can chew.

Anonymous said...

To be a noble charitable being is to be enduring a make of openness to the mankind, an ability to trusteeship aleatory things beyond your own pilot, that can front you to be shattered in uncommonly extreme circumstances as which you were not to blame. That says something uncommonly weighty with the prerequisite of the righteous passion: that it is based on a conviction in the unpredictable and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a weed than like a sparkler, something somewhat tenuous, but whose very precise attraction is inseparable from that fragility.

Exercise ferments the humors, casts them into their meet channels, throws off redundancies, and helps feather in those hush-hush distributions, without which the solidity cannot subsist in its vigor, nor the incarnation fake with cheerfulness.
