Brighton up.

Friday 25 January 2013

(Top - ASOS; blazer - Glam Itself from Joy Hysteric; shorts - French Connection)
Today : woke up to an ashen grey sky and ominous clouds, the perfect backdrop for a cup of warm, milky tea in bed and a good book. My natural sartorial reaction to such conditions is to counteract the dreary hues with brighter shades so I thought it fitting to post these images taken a while ago when I was in Melbourne with the lovely Sonia from Daring Coco. Don’t the vibrant Brighton boxes make you giddy with glee? Thank you Sonia for bringing me here – I had so much fun chasing the sunset with you! <3

Apologies also for the lack of posts of late – I have just finished my first week as a doctor (!!!) in Emergency and am currently in a euphoric haze of feeling like the luckiest girl in the world...

Hope you all have the most exquisite weekend!

Much love, Mandy. xx

  11. Oh my, everything about this post is perfect. The little houses in the backdrop are absolutely adorable, and I couldn't think of a better outfit to match their flashes of colour. I especially love the shot of you with the blue Brighton box behind you, you look beautiful!

  12. Those vibrant coloured beach huts are wonderful and making me miss summer. It's snowing here in the North of England and we are all wrapped up in our layers.
