Lyme Regis


Hey guys!

Last week I went to stay with my grandparents in Lyme Regis, a small coastal town in Dorset. Being England, the weather was typically dull and rainy, and I didn't get a lot of sunshine while I was by the sea (probably around six hours total), so I wasn't able to take as many photos as I'd hoped. However, I did take a few and I'll share them anyway.

I bought some things when I went on a day trip to Bridport with my gran and here's a collage of them:


I purchased a couple of notebooks and a mechanical pen from a gift shop (not that I need any more stationery!). I love the designs on the notebooks - they're so pretty! You'll be shocked at how much (or rather, how little) I bought them for! I also had a wander around the charity shops while I was in Bridport and I picked up a slightly old copy of The Language of Flowers in the Cancer Research shop. Don't you just love the cover?!

I also bought some fudge while I was in Lyme Regis because you can't go on holiday in England and not buy fudge!


Onto the pics I took at the Folk Festival...















Such interesting and unusual costumes!

Paella! (took with my phone so quality isn't as good as the previous photos)

Yummy! (also taken with my phone)


And around the beach...

The Cobb


Sun!

I love beach huts!

 
Beautiful sunset!


Have you ever been to Lyme Regis (or Bridport)? Where did you go on holiday this summer?
Hasta luego!

August Goodies




Hey guys!
 
Today's post will be very short: I will be sharing some treats I got this month.
 
 1. Lemonhead Candy - I bought this at Summer in the City, there was a candy shop in the main hall (Cyber Candy, to be precise). I also picked up some Birthday Cake M&Ms, but unfortunately I ate them all before I had the chance to take a picture of them!
 
 2. Soap - I got this soap from Lush and it smells amazing! It's fruity scented :)
 
 3. All The Bright Places - This book looks quite good so when I saw it at the book swap at Summer in the City, I knew I had to pick it up!
 
 
4. Me Before You - Another book I acquired at Summer in the City.
 
 
Have you bought anything nice recently? Let me know in the comments! :)
 
Hasta luego!
