I fell in love at the seaside

Last weekend I was whisked away to the cute seaside town of North Berwick as a birthday treat from David. The weather was a little gloomy – but that didn’t spoil our fun. We checked into our gorgeous boutique hotel – 12 Quality Street, went for a walk through the town and along the beach, had fishcakes from the Lobster Shack, and a yummy dinner and lots of wine at The Grange. Every meal I ate that weekend consisted of fish (but hey, that’s a given – its a seaside town and all of the above boasted fantastic local produce)

Sitting at the harbor and breathing in the fresh sea air made me wish I lived closer to the coast. I just love the beach, and watching the waves, and that smell in the atmosphere that makes you feel like you’ve never breathed ‘clean’ air before (city dwellers, ya get me?) Everything just felt so calm. Being the numpty that I am, I always forget to pack one thing in my overnight bag, every time without fail. This time I forgot to pack an extra pair of shoes! What an idiot. So you can see a few pictures above I wore my vans out for dinner 🙂 But I couldn’t have cared less, it was a blissful weekend and just what I’ve needed amongst the madness lately. That boy is my best friend, and spending some quality time with him and laughing so much makes me more happy than I have ever been in my whole life. But anyways, enough of my mush. We swung by Ikea edinburgh on the way home for a wander and for me to buy a few props for work – and lets just say the meatballs, apple pie and lingonberry juice were the perfect end to my weekend! What can I say, it’s the simple things in life 😉

One last thing, I did a really fun guest post for the awesome Chloe while she is away on holiday. My attempt at a rather fierce Kat Von D makeup look 🙂 You can see it here (and have a wee look at the rest of her blog too, she is such a great girl) Happy weekend folks ♥
