Day at the Museums....Part 1

One of the things i always kick myself over is the fact that i always take for granted the fact that i live in London. There is so much to see and do and im incredibly lazy! My boy and I had a random Tuesday off so we thought we would go wander around some museums in London.

First up was the Victoria & Albert museum, website here. I love the V&A because its just that little bit different to the rest (and has great fashion archives!). Its initials stand for me and my boyfriend (Victoria and Ant). Haha i told him it was our 'Brand' logo. Not sure he was so amused but my retail brain found it funny.

Check out my pictures below.....


The chandelier is stunning. Always makes me smile as i walk in the entrance and gaze up.....

 We had lunch out in the courtyard - isn't it gorgeous! I was so happy the rain had eased off so we could tuck in to lunch. And my boyfriend was a beauty and bought me a cuppa. Isn't this paper cup great?!

I treated myself to this fab little pair of daisy earings and a silver and pink friendship bracelet. The shops profits go towards the museum so its a worthy shopping cause. There were so many amazing pieces in there i will definitely be going back soon!


 The Ballgown exhibition looked great - sadly we didnt have time to go in. I am going to ditch the boyfriend and go back up myself to have a look. I love a good dress. I wore my Zara dress i bought last week...

 

I paired my dress with my Amelie Boots, see my post from last month, and my gorgeous Tilly Hobo. She loves a day out in London, just like me!

I'm going to another few posts (as i get a bit tourist snap happy!). Speak soon xx
