Trip to Bath and a modest haul (a picture laden post!)

Evening blogettes! Hope you're all enjoying whats left of the weekend. Andy and I took an impromptu trip to Bath...after a rotten few days at work I decided I need to just get away! The weather was pretty grim but I didn't care -  it was just so nice to get some proper down-time with no-one else around (we're living with Andy's parents whilst saving for a house deposit!) Anyway we spent a lovely, lazy Saturday just wandering around the city including a stop by the roman baths.....

and then onto a fab resturant called Panasia for some some scrummy Thai food washed down with a Sake cocktail or two. This morning we blasted the hangover away with a gorgeous cooked brekkie at the River Cottage Canteen which is as the name suggests is owned by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall off t'telly! I find it really cringey when I see people photographing their food in a resturant but my order looked so lovely when it arrived I decided to join the club and take a sneaky snap on the iphone!


The rest of the day did involve the shops naturally. The shopping in Bath is amazing - I remember it being fab that last time I went (3 or 4 years ago) and its now even better with the construction of SouthGate. Despite this I was quite reserved and only picked up a few bits. Am so in love with the H&M dress which despite being under £30 is made of the most gorgeous silk-like material. I plan to add a few glam accessories and wear it to a wedding we're invited to later this year. (Get me planning in advance vs. my usual dash round the shops the day before!)

Blue Dress - £29.99 H&M

Pen pot Make-up brush holder - £2.75 Paperchase

Necklace - can't remember the price! H&M

Models Own lipstick in Nude - £6.00 Boots

And so its Sunday night again already :( Andy is zombie-fied in front of Top Gear so I'm off to make some toast and a cuppa and catch up on some blogs. I'll leave you with a pic of my little Roman.....


Until next time,
