Shoppingggg!

On Saturday my wonderful friend Nicolaaa and I had a wander round Liverpool town centre. As usual we had Wagamama's for lunch, bought things we do not need at all and had a lovely time. We also stopped briefly for a little cake and a bit of people watching!


I do enjoy our shopping trips because together we find a way to 'justify' our ridiculous purchases. I look like a giant on this picture.

Dress - French Connection, Belt and Necklace - Mother's, Straw bag - Peacocks, Wedges - New Look, Gold Flats - Asda, Sunglasses - Rayban


I was dressed in something far too summery. I wasn't actually cold at any point, but it is only April and this sort of thing isn't quite acceptable. There were lots of scene kids around wearing hotpants so I didn't look too out of place. My cake was the mad chick one. Most of my life seems to involve some sort of cake. I'm glad I took a change of shoes because the wedges aren't very comfortable.

This is Harry - my completely unnecessary purchase of the day. I knew I didn't need him, but I carried him around H&M for a bit, named him and then couldn't just leave him and so had to buy him. I'm glad I did now - I wore him today and it was lots of fun.

I hope we have days out like this when we are old and grey and own tartan sholleys so we can get in the way of all the young folk.

  6. I was going to say, is it really already warm enough to be traipsing around in sun dresses where you are? I guess not, but you look adorable. We've been enjoying a bit of a hot spell in San Francisco. TOday it was nearly 90 degrees!

  26. Oh this looks like so much fun! I'm so jealous right now! What a cute parrot! I've always said that if I could turn into a bird it would definatly be a parrot named Polly. That dress looks perfect for a nice spring day. Wow, are you tall or is she short?!
    Yes, 95 is usually what we get in the summer so it was a little surprising to get it so early. 60 sounds more like late winter here.
    Yes we go backpacking every summer, not always that trip and never for that long but there is usually a week or two of backpacking every year.
