Holiday Outfit Lookbook

I'm currently starting to write this while in bed on holiday, but I'll actually finish this when I get home.. this is some odd kind of paradox feeling as it'll be now but the future... anyway enough of the confusing thoughts! Whilst I've been soaking up the sun here in America, I decided I would take a few pictures of the quite simple and relaxed outfits I've been wearing, as I love reading these kind of posts.
So here's some photos of a few holiday outfits and where they're from.

Quick 'Off on Holiday' Update

Over the past few days, I thought I was going to quite literally melt. I know other countries are considerably hotter but we're not used to these kind of temperatures in England! 

I'M MEEELTING
 But tomorrow morning, I'm off to the land of the free, aka the USA! I'm so excited and get to spend time with some friends I haven't seen in years, go to the beach, experience new places and revisit some old ones. I don't have a clue what the internet will be like there so I have pre-written one post which will be up in a couple of days. I wanted to write more today and schedule them to go up but I wasn't organised enough and now I need to get to bed as I need to be up at 5am, so apologies for that. I'll be back properly at the start of August, hopefully full of inspiration, looking a bit more freckly or tanned (a girl can dream) and feeling oh so relaxed.

So I'll speak to you properly in two weeks but my past self will do the talking for now.. this feels like such an odd paradox situation.

Thanks for reading and have a lovely day whatever you're up to :)

America- 1 month to go!!

I'm very exciteable today because it's one month until I go on holiday. This year is a very special holiday for our family as we're going to America to see our friends in New Jersey. We're staying with them for a couple of days, all going to Cape Cod for a week and then coming back to New Jersey and visiting New York. I'm also going to be in New York on my 16th birthday as well so it'll be a very different birthday!

Most importantly, I'm going to be able to spend some time with my friend, Hannah. Our parents met around 19 years ago and when Hannah's parents moved to America with her and her brother, Matt, it obviously meant that we didn't see each other as often anymore, which makes seeing Hannah so much more special as we've always got along.

We always used to put on 'shows' for our families
 
Hannah's family has been through a lot recently so I know it's going to be great to be able to spend some quality time with her, especially as I haven't actually seen her for 3 years. 
I'm really looking forward to spending hours lounging on the beach, eating good food, having warm weather, doing some damage in the New York shops and seeing Wicked on my birthday (my favourite musical).

Aren't we cool in our matching t-shirts

If you're going on holiday this summer, I hope you have a brilliant time!
Thank you for reading and have a lovely day whatever you're up to :)
