Hello, Weekend

Photo by me.

Oh, weekend. I'm so happy you're finally here! After a week of not feeling so well, I'm feeling much better knowing that I have the whole weekend to relax. My weekend actually started today (we had a day off school), and it was lovely. I woke up, only to see the windowpanes coated with little rain droplets, and rain falling from the sky. This excited me, as I have a strange love for rainy days. My Mum and I went to a cute little cafe for lunch and tea smoothies. It was delicious. I spent the rest of the day just hanging out at home, playing the piano, listening to the (500) Days of Summer soundtrack, taking photos of raindrops, and reading The Book of Awesome (a book about the little things in life that are, well, awesome. A must-read.).

What did you do today? Do tell. Have a lovely weekend,

If you aren't already familiar with Tif Fussell's work, you are in for a major swoon-fest. Whimsical vintage fabrics, lovely quotes, and beautiful lace. Crafting at it's finest.

Thank-you so much for the sweet comments on my last post. They really made me smile. :)

Have a lovely day,

An Award and an Outfit

Hello, there!

I was recently given the Stylish Blogger Award by the lovely Libby. Thank-you so much, Libby! I think this calls for a couple of outfit photos from today. :)

First two photos taken by my sister, Chloe.

Jeans and a Spring jacket would have been much more appropriate for the weather today, but I just couldn't help myself. This outfit puts me in a good mood!

Cardigan: Old Navy
Top: Thrifted
Shorts: Forever 21
Shoes: Forever 21
Scarf: Borrowed from my Nana
Jewellery: Vintage
Tights: Borrowed from my Mum

When awarded the Stylish Blogger Award, one must list seven unknown facts about themself. So, here I go!

{One} One day, I will own a little shop filled with vintage clothing, antiques, beautiful handmade items, and sweets (cupcakes and macaroons, anyone?). This shop will be called, you guessed it, The Inglenook.
{Two} I collect vintage film cameras.
{Three} I'm usually a Winter person, but I can't wait until Summer, when I can just sit outside all day while drinking iced green tea and reading issues of Oh Comely.
{Four} I want to travel many places and see the World.
{Five} Everyday, the second I get home from school, on go my Padraig slippers.
{Six} I'm going One Day Without Shoes on April 5th (and hoping that my teachers won't give me heck).
{Seven} I love tea. Especially ones with interesting flavours. Summer-berry and Black Forest are my favourites.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend,

Abbey
