Exploring the Scottish National Gallery

One day in Scotland, Alice and I decided to take the train down to Edinburgh where we ate mountains of pasta in this quaint Italian place and sketched in the National gallery. It was a day well spent.





These were all pieces by Steven Campbell. I loved the way that each one was it's own fictional universe and the aesthetic of the magical creatures and faded water colours was so pleasing.





The gallery was pretty cool and here's what I wore for our day of adventuring. 





Jumper - topshop
Playsuit - Asos
Tights - (borrowed) topshop
Boots - Charity shop
Jacket (<3) - borrowed

Alice lent me these amazing sparkly blue tights and I borrowed the jacket from her lovely Aunt. I actually became really attached to it by the end of the trip and if any of you know where I could get something similar I would really appreciate it! Autumn means the season of expert layering is upon us, so I went for this really sweet jumper which has a chiffon layer over the top and paired it with my black playsuit. 

I'm currently getting really excited for Christmas (I know it's early for lots of people but I LOVE the festive season) and binge watching the Mindy Project and a new favourite anime, Nisekoi. I also can't stop listening to this song:


Hope you are all well!
