A Day Out In Eastbourne!

 The best way to spend a gorgeous summer day? In Eastbourne. Yesterday, with my other family (my dad, step mum and two sisters) we made a trip to the awesome seaside town and spent the day on the beach, oh and scoffing great ice cream! 

My younger sister, Daisy and me. ( Daisy is wearing her Ralph Lauren top. I'm well jel!)

Us again with our dad.

Before we stopped at Eastbourne we visited our great nan in Pevensey Bay, the next seaside town along. 

If you ever happen to make a trip to Eastbourne, then I recommend Fusciardi's, a lovely ice cream parlour with classic Italian ice cream. While we were down there we decided to have a look as my dad used to go there when he was younger. It had everything from vanilla to honeycombe.



A really nice waitress from the parlour offered to take a photo of my dad and I. What do you think?



Honeycombe + white choc = two scoops of mouthwatering heaven! 

Even Holly was enjoying herself :) 

I was just playing about with the special effects on my camera! 



The pier.



Holly was obsessed with the stones on the beach!

My burgundy Converse definitely had to be in a picture.



All the family together...





Hard at work.



If only the weather in England could be like this all the time!

I wanted to share the outfit my awesome step mum was wearing. I love the dress, and the sunglasses really go with the outfit to. 
Dress: Warehouse 
Sunglasses: Ray Ban
Nail varnish: Essie 




Having fun by the sea!

Birthday Party!

So, on Tuesday, it was my friend Tallulah's birthday party and above, is Lottie, AKFB, me and of course Tallulah (hiding behind her dog!) We hung out in the warm sunshine for a bit in her garden, and then enjoyed delicious homemade pizzas made by Tallulah's dad :) Afterwards we took a trip to Waterloo to the IMax to watch the new Disney film, The Lone Ranger. I will be telling you about the film, but first, the pics of the day! 

I love Tallulah's outfit! Dress: borrowed from AKFB, New Look. Shoes: Ed.

I decided to go all sixties for the party! My shift dress: Primark. Shoes: Converse, USA. Necklace: Tatty Devine.

AKFB's outfit was rocking too! Skirt: New Look. Top: New Look. Cardigan: Generations at New Look. Bag: River Island.

A close up of the awesome skirt! 

Our other friend, Amelia also had a great outfit! 

I just had to take a photo of Tallulah's cool bracelet! 

The IMax is certainly great at night!





After the great cinema trip, we went back to the house and had yummy Thorntons chocolate cake! 

Just thought this was quite a good picture :p Now, to tell you guys about The Lone Ranger! 

This movie I thought was actually quite good, better than I expected it to  be. It had a lot of action, and of course adventure! Little children would like this film, but  adults would to. It had a few jokes, and of course, Johnny Depp! So, if you love Disney/ Johnny Depp/ action/ adventure/laughs then defo go and see this movie! 
The Lone Ranger: 8 /10

Lots Of Catching Up!


It feels like such a long time since I posted! I went to Blackpool and the day before when I was going to post I had to go to A+E :(. At last I can now catch up with you guys everything I have done in the last two weeks! Firstly, on a Saturday with my family and friends, including my good friend Amy from the perks of being Amy: http://theperksofbeingamy.blogspot.co.uk/ and my other good friend, Tallulah, we all went to The Leather Bottle pub in Earlsfield, London, to watch my dads band playing in the awesome pub garden. There were also some other bands playing, and this event was called Earlsfest. This event is held every summer. For some info on the pub, here is their website: http://www.leatherbottlepub.co.uk/.  

Us girls in front of the stage! (The dress I'm wearing is a new one I bought from the Isle of Wight, I will tell you all about it at the end!) 

This great band here are called Nylon Ostrich, and the singer at of the band is related to Matt, the singer of The Lola Jones. 



Another band that played, Dare To Be Charlie, were also great. They played country/rock music. 



The Lola Jones in action! My dad is the drummer. 





It was very busy in the amazing pub garden. 


Here is the link to their youtube video of them playing their own song, Sweet Tea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MtI7ObdVqI&feature=em-upload_owner

Not only was the garden a normal garden, it even had a cute sandpit at the back for the littlies to play in while the adults listened to the awesome music! :P 

The big queue for the delicious BBQ. 



Not only did I go to a great gig, a few days after I went for a few days to Blackpool! Only a little holiday, but it was defo worth it. We went to the Pleasure Beach, an awesome theme park about 5 minutes away from where we were staying, and above is one of the fastest, tallest and steepest roller coasters in Europe! And I went on it :0  

Who knew Spidercow would be staying Blackpool?!



The famous Blackpool tower!

Liking the artwork, do you think my brother fits in the picture?



We  went up the tower and before going all the way to the top, we stopped on floor 3 in the beautiful ballroom, where some pros were dancing to the man playing on the organ!



At the top of the tower you can defiantly see everything, including the comedy sketches down on the promenade.





Afterwards we stopped for a spot of lunch, and I ended up with a (very tasty!) mahoosive hot dog!! :P

Next day, the Pleasure Beach. 

They had a cute little Wallace and Gromit roller coaster!



InFusion, the amazeboz roller coaster that goes upside down 3 times!

Even David Hassellhoff has been! 

We then stopped by the Madame Tussauds Blackpool, and we happened to spot Lady Gaga!

Torvill and Dean skating to the Bolero.

I even had a drink in the Rovers Return Inn from Coronation Street!!

I think you guys know who these people are!



The last day we went to the Sealife. I just wanted to put a pic of the giant Japanese spider crab, Big Daddy. Wow!

The nearly final thing I have to talk about is the Crystal Palace Garden Party, Proms in the Park. I went with my trusty family and my good old friend, you know her, AKFB, fab writer of Another Kinda Fashion Blog. It was a lovely event held in Crystal Palace park, with events such as Pop choir, Rock choir, Shades of Shakespeare and the main event, Kent Sinfonia. This event has been held since 1971 and has been quite successful and the night ended in a bang, quit literally!

The famous tower in the background behind the stage.



They even had an awesome slushy stand, with all sorts of flavours from apple to pina colada! You could fill your cup with as many flavours as you wanted. And I managed to bag myself one! 

Blue raspberry, apple and pina colada, yum...

AKFB with her trusty sandwich.



Yummy lemon cupcakes!





Converse twins, can you guess which one is me?

I loved AKFB's outfit, especially the top! :P 
Top: H&M, shoe: Converse, leggings: New Look and coat: Topshop (borrowed of me!) 

The crowd turned out to be very big.

I wasn't kidding when I said the night went of in a bang! 







Last but not least, a few days ago AKFB and I had an epic sleepover lasting four days, and of course there had to be a shopping trip involved! My favourite thing I got was my skater skirt, from New Look: £14.99   NOW £7.00. I think I got myself a bargain there! 

I said earlier on that this dress would be featuring on later in the post, and here it is! I got it from the great shop, Cameo of Cowes, in West Cowes, Isle of Wight, which I mentioned in an Isle of Wight post when I bought the tartan skirt. Just to refresh your memories, it is a shop that sells lost property. Well I went back there a few days later and found this dress that I recently spotted in New Look and I really wanted it but I didn't have enough money. And guess what, I found it for £7.50 when it was originally £15.00! Defiantly going back there again :)
