Vintage Town

Today I visited a local town with my mum and sister Laura. Its really cute and covered with vintage shops. We went to get furniture for our new summer house (we did get a table!) and I ended up with a number of items...

We first went to the biggest vintage shop in the area (my favourite) an old mill converted into a 'unique shop with a mix of antiques, home furnishings, gifts and jewellery. Its such a big shop and I could resist taking a few pictures:
I loved this sign so much that I decided to take a picture with it.
I promise that is me! Just not prepared to show my bare face and unwashed hair!!

I thought these keys were so cute but decided against getting one when told they were £4!

I really love things like this - an old suitcase? would just look so cute in my room!

I also LOVE the lavender hearts that were scattered around downstairs but
I wasn't prepared to pay £10 for one when I could make my own!

After a lot of debating, this record 'dish' i guess was the only item I ended up taking home :)
£3.50

We also went into a little private shop where I brought my second Nakd bar. I previously tried the Berry Delight bar and wasn't sure whether or not I liked it (it tastes a bit like these things school bars that I used to have have at junior school!) so I got another different flavour (Cocoa Mint) for 90p but I'm still uncertain.

We then went into a little cafe for lunch and I really loved the table number cards!



After the cafe, we went into a little chocolate shop
(left to right) Chocolate Brownie Praline, Hazelnut Praline and Chocolate Orange Praline
(I LOVE PRALINE) £1.65 for all 3

Then finally I got this 'chocolates' tin for £4
I always end up with a tin every time I go here!

I was looking back at my old posts and I noticed that last year, I put up a picture of my sister's birthday cake and as her birthday was yesterday, I thought I'd post another picture:


In other news, I've been meaning to watch Orange is the New Black for ages now and I stared yesterday. I'm only on episode 5 (literally halfway through, decided to stop in the middle and write this post!) but I'm really enjoying it! I also just finished watching The 100 too which is SO GOOD! It's on in the UK at the moment on E4? but I watched the whole series online and I can't wait to see what happens next!

Sorry for the amount of pictures on this post but I hope you enjoyed it and I will hopefully post again soon :)
