London to Brighton

As much as I love London, I’m always happy to get away from it now and then. Especially when it’s to a polar opposite place like Brighton. I’ve been there a few times and what I’ve seen I love, it’s just so picturesque and it really seems to have its own kind of charm. I don’t know if I myself would choose to live there, but I can definitely understand why other people would. Still, I have never been for more than a day – I would love to stay there for a while just to see what this pretty place has to offer, as well as all the touristy stuff (that I’m happy to enjoy).

Maybe next time I should try to gamble a Hello Kitty into my hands…

I went there for a whole day about three weeks ago, and just like London, the weather was a bit schizophrenic – it was quite cold and grey for the most of it, but thankfully the sun did come out every now and again…

Dress, ASOS. Bracelet, vintage. Shoes, Accessorize.

No comments to make regarding my strange pose – the dress, however, is one of my latest ASOS purchases. It’s pretty much everything I want in a dress – girlie, made of jersey, in a really pretty coral/pink shade, with a fitted top part and a flowy skirt, not to mention the caramel hearts print. What more can a girl ask for in a summer dress?

I’m not ashamed to behave like a complete tourist sometimes, so naturally fish and chips were absolutely mandatory.

In case you hadn’t noticed, I am completely obsessed with matching pink and turquoise green at the moment – inevitably, the cafe’s swish background had an instant magnet effect on me… I guess colour-blocking can be found – and done – anywhere.

In my world there’s always time for a cupcake, especially if it looks like this…

I would have been more than happy to have another cupcake, but I behaved – this vanilla one was my friend’s choice.

My friend also treated himself to this chocolate drink – too pretty to drink away, don’t you think?

I dream of living in a house with a bright pink door, but for now I’m happy to ‘borrow’ other people’s doors just for the sake of a picture.

Nothing quite like sitting on a beach with the sun glazing in your face – even if it’s a pebbled beach.
