Summer in Photos: First 3 Days in Florida

-
I have no idea how long we've been planning on hopping on a plane over to Florida, but it seems like forever. The day finally arrived last Monday to take our 8-and-a-half hour flight over to Orlando airport and into the sweltering heat. Though our holiday isn't over quite yet, I'm having the best time, exploring all the Disney parks and soaking up the magic. I've taken so many pictures that it's best I break things up a bit, so here are our adventures on our first three days: Disney's Hollywood Studios, Universal Studios Florida, and Magic Kingdom!

DAY ONE: HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS

Our first day was spent in Disney's Hollywood Studios park. I love the 'golden era' feel of the place, mixed with the incredible Star Wars themed parades and rides. My fave rides though had to be the Rock n Rollercoaster and Toy Story Midway Mania - very different but very fun. We stopped off for dinner at Sci Fi dining, which was set out like a drive in cinema, with pretty great Veggie Burgers 👌





DAY TWO: UNIVERSAL STUDIOS FLORIDA

Any Harry Potter fan in Florida can't miss the amazing scenes at Universal. We spent the day mostly down Diagon Alley, specifically in the queue for Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts (the best ride so far). I could spend so long down there. Other than that, we did the Men in Black ride, then travelled back home to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks on the beach. 







DAY THREE: MAGIC KINGDOM 

Magic Kingdom is probably my favourite Disney park, if only for all the Beauty and the Beast centric stuff. We had breakfast in the Be Our Guest restaurant, which was i.n.s.a.n.e, as well as lunch in Gaston's Tavern, but the Happily Ever After fireworks display was the sure highlight of the day. The Festival of Fantasy parade was brilliant, as were classic rides like Splash Mountain, the Haunted Mansion and Big Thunder Mountain. 






My first three days in Florida were absolutely fab. I can't wait to share the rest of my time in Florida witchu :)

Tom Odell Live [Review]

I sit here, tucked under my duvet in my Wrong Crowd t-shirt, trying to find the words to describe last night's events: exhilarating, emotional, powerful, fantastic. Pushed up against a barrier with my hair sticking to my forehead, and the girl next to me swaying this way and that, I screamed the lyrics to Tom Odell's songs for an hour and a half straight, as he embarked on the Birmingham leg of his No Bad Days Tour 2016.  Calm and collected, unlike everyone in the crowd, Tom strolled onto the stage and took his seat at the grand piano. The lyrics of Still Getting Used to Being On My Own glided in, and as the intensity of the instruments built, as the did the light show, alongside the sheer passion behind Tom's vocals. I thought this was a strange opener; the song deliberates the tragic struggle of getting over a relationship. However, this was picked up by the thriving rock ballad I Know, which inspired plenty of fist pumps. Following this was his latest album...

Oh hey! Long time no see. I have been super busy with all my uni stuff recently; I've got to that stage where I pretend everything's okay, watch a tonne of Brooklyn 99 and consume far too many Party Rings to procrastinate doing the work I actually have to do, hence I haven't really been on here much. Also, the photo set up - as you will be able to tell - hasn't really been sorted out yet. My box room isn't great for good outfit shots etc, so I've been wondering how to tackle a week in outfits post. I've settled with a a mirror selfie...I'm sorry, you're going to have to bare with for a while I think :').  I've kept you waiting for a new post for long enough, so without further ado, let's get on with the week in outfits, shall we?  monday.  First of all, I'd like to point out that I haven't really updated my A/W wardrobe since last year, so I don't know how much will still be available. But I'm pretty hap...

A Week in Outfits: Holiday Edition

When it comes to seasonal fashion, I know exactly what I like during Autumn/Winter - if it's cable knit and comfy I'm there. But in the warmer months I like to push the boat out a little bit...and when I say 'push the boat out', I mean wear something that isn't grey or black, and maybe even a skirt or two. Before I went to Florida, I did a big spend up on summer clothes. I couldn't wait to wear them all, so decided to wear them all in the first week of our holiday! So, here's what I wore in Florida, showcasing some old classics and some new faves.  *The brown bag you'll see throughout is from Accessorize ( similar ), and my sunnies are from French Connection  :) The belt is actually my brother's and he has no idea where he got it oops*  TUESDAY: DISNEY'S HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS  As I was travelling on the Monday and was just wearing my comfies, we start with Tuesday. I know I said that sometimes I venture away from grey and black...
