[36.] Getting my Frock On!

Hello dear readers (^-^)!

(if there still are any)...

So uhm, it's been a while!

Sorry there were never any "Long Lost Travel Series"...

To be honest, I lost my motivation to write.

I've been having a hard time at work and when I come home,

I just don't feel like sitting in front of a computer again...

Anyhow...

Today, I finally feel like writing about some things I've been up to!

So, without further ado, let's start post [36.]

I went to London for a weekend!

My boyfriend & I left here on Friday after work.

It was our 1 year anniversary that day <3

I've never been so in love with anyone...

Beautiful flowers I received

We exchanged our cards when we got to the hotel in London.
We are soooooo lame XD

On Saturday we did our separate things and I ended up at:

Frock On! The Tea Party Club's 6th Anniversary event.

I didn't feel very well during the day, so I didn't enjoy it as much as I hoped.

I did, however, have some great chats with some old friends.

And! I also made some new friends from Holland <3

Here are a few of my photos (^-^)!

My Dutch friends <3

With Ziggy, she's craaazy!

The main shopping hall with loads of stalls!

With special guest Hitomi from Grimoire <3
She was so sweet & adorable!

With my favourite Portoguese, always cheering me up <3

On my way out I got a goodbye photo with Reina & Florrie, love you!

My main purchase, a beautiful OP by Millefleurs <3
So happy to finally own a piece by them!

I couldn't leave without these beauties!
Tights from Grimoire <3

I hope you enjoyed my photos!

I didn't stay for very long, because I wasn't well... 

but I had a great day!

[32.] Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone (^-^)

Hope you all had a lovely time!

I've spent Easter with my boyfriend's family,

as all of my family lives abroad.

I had a great time!

We arrived at 10 o'clock on Easter Sunday for breakfast.

This wasn't just any breakfast, but a traditional Polish Easter breakfast!

~•* Here is some foodporn for your enjoyment *•~

ALL THE FOOD

Barszcz Biały - traditional Easter soup

A selection of ham

Fresh herring

Sałatka - a vegetable salad

Filled eggs with mayonnaise

Kabanas - a type of Polish sausage

Galaretka - chicken & vegetables jelly stuff

Well it's needless to say, after all that, I was pretty stuffed!

I absolutely love Polish cuisine, it's very similar to the food I grew up with.

Plus it helps that my boyfriend's parents are amazing chefs <3

You'd think this would be all the food you can eat for breakfast...

WRONG! Not in a Polish house. Eating kind of never stops.

But hey! You don't hear me complaining ;)

A selection of delicious cakes

MOAR CAKE - this cheesecake was amazing!

Of course, because I hadn't worn lolita properly since January,

I took this opportunity to wear something nice...

Here's my Easter outfit & greetings!

Happy Easter to all my Dutch readers <3

I'm a bunny...

~•* Outfit *•~

Bunny Ears - Supermarket

Rose Wreath - Primark

Blouse - New Look

JSK - Angelic Pretty

Tights - Accessorize

Shoes - Vivienne Westwood x Melissa

For the first time in ages, I've used my natural hair...

I still think it doesn't go very well with lolita,

and I should just keep wearing a wig!

I've only just noticed how horribly short this dress is on me D:

Does anyone know where to get an underskirt?

Maybe I should just sell it (;_____;)

Opinions?

Hope you all had a lovely Easter!

Thanks for reading (^-^)..

[29.] Tea Time with the Bristolian ladies

Good evening, dear readers (^-^)!

On Saturday the 3rd of November, I went to have afternoon tea

with the local ladies of the Bristolian lands!

My housemate Hayley and I walked to the venue together.

It's so funny how English people always try not to look at you,

even though it's quite obvious that they can't help themselves XD

 Oh well, Hayley & I love shocking the locals and the tourists so it's fiiiine :3

We met up at Boston Tea Party, not far from our house.

They had reserved a table for us especially.

Naturally I ordered an 'Afternoon Tea' and shared it with Hayley,

and I chose Yunnan Rose tea as my actual drinking tea!

Hmmm 'Afternoon Tea'

Caaaake :3

Super delicious scone with clotted cream & jam <3

Yunnan Rose tea with real rosebuds in it!

Soooo tasty! It was a bit too much, though!

I wrapped up the brownies in my napkin and took them home, haha ;)

Just remembered there was a slight dilemma with the tea spoons.

Hayley is portraying this wonderfully in the following photos:

Hayley: "Where are the spoons?!" Me: "There are no spoons!" Hayley: *sulk*

Jenny also took some photos (much better than my phone can),

so here is a delightful picture of me scoffing cake... 

Oh well, I'm always eating :3

"OMG DELICIOUS SAMMICH"

Sometimes slightly less elegant, but at least I'm having fun?!

After the delicious meal, some of us decided to go for a walk.

We found this beautiful park that I didn't even know existed!

So beautiful, argh! I wish I took some more photos (>_<)"!

We managed to take a little incomplete, blurry group photo with the self-timer :3

I'm wearing my Angelic Pretty 'Dreaming Macaron' JSK,

which I received in the post on that actual morning!

Katherine, Gina, Jenny, Hannah & I ^-^! I'm not actually that small!

Here's an outfit shot of the day that the beautiful Jenny took!

Meeeeeee :3 - I really love this picture <3 Thanks, Jenny!

How has your weekend been?

I'm back at work again now, boo!

[20.] High street finds...

Good afternoon readers ^-^!

Argh, I went shopping 3 days ago, when I really shouldn't...

Since we had this really lovely week of sunshine for once 

(I know.. *GASP*), I figured I was in need of sandals!

I somehow lost my favourite pair of brown sandals from TOPSHOP.

I guess somehow during moving houses so often lately...

My mission for the day was to buy 1 pair of brown & 1 pair of black sandals.

What did I come home with? Errr... oopsie?!

Don't let me go through the sales...

I honestly spent all day looking for sandals that I'd love... but no luck.

Then my friend wanted us to go into Monsoon/Accessorize, so I was dragged there :3

And oh, of course I managed to find things I like in there!

1. Pink peeptoe jelly shoes 

(not quite brown or black, but super comfy)!

They were only £5.40 instead of £18! 
Accessorize is having a massive 1/2 price AND 70% off sale!

2. Two lovely pairs of tights

Only £2.20 each, instead of £8 each! AND THEY HAVE HEARTS ON THEM!

I love combining tights with lolita as I'm quite tall. 

3. Eye rock - Designer Liner

Because quite frankly, I suck at eye make-up and I thought this would be an easy way out!

£3.50 instead of £7 - not that bad I thought...

How is your summer so far?

We actually had rain again yesterday :3 

It just can't stay dry for a week in the UK, haha!

Hope you're having a beautiful day today,

I'm going for a walk now ^-^!
