On The Pier

November 18th, 2012

When in Brighton…

I know, I know, it’s been a little while. If you follow over on Twitter or Instagram, you may have seen that I’ve been spending the past few weeks surrounded by cardboard boxes as I just moved house..but more on that very soon, no doubt!

These snaps were taken a few weeks ago on an impromptu jaunt to Brighton with a few of my best pals Lucy, Dunya, Olivia & Kristabel. We shuffled up and down the pier making silly faces and causing a few funny looks (I was irrationally terrified that I might fall through..piers are scary places!) . It’s an odd thing hanging around with a group of bloggers, all with big cameras around their necks. We resembled some sort of photography club - and with all the location spotting/swapping  tips, it should probably be classified as such!

The night before our trip I squeezed into a pale blue gingham wiggle dress, thinking it perfect for a day by the sea – but then realisation struck (probably coinciding with a rain shower) and instead of dressing like a deck chair, I thought perhaps I’d go as something out of a Punch & Judy show instead, allowing for a snuggly coat and a pair of tights.

The burgundy dress from Goldie is a favourite of mine – it reminds me of something I had when I was a child and wore to endless Christmas parties. Judging by the length of this one, I just as well be wearing a child’s dress (comes with a strict no bending over policy). The lacey ruff around my neck was a lucky find and welcome addition to the dress - it seems as though the two were meant to be together, don’t you think?

Now, I must stop writing - my hiatus has caused verbal diarrhea – I’m certain I could stay here all night tapping away. I’m so happy to be back! x
