Dreaming of Knaresborough

A while ago, just before the Tour de France came to Yorkshire, hubby and I went for a day out in Knaresborough.

We were looking for a nice place we've not seen before to have a nice day out as the weather was dreamy and while researching on the internet hubby stumbled upon Knaresborough.

After an hours' drive, we pulled up into the parking space next to the police station and the first thing that took my breath away was the parking charge: just £1.60 for 4 hours!!!!! Absolutely unheard of!:)

After getting over that, we entered the gate to the castle and stopped to look around.

Casual all the Way :)

With the chill in the air, I'm clearly going through a phase of constantly wearing jeans! :)

And it's no surprise I can't keep away either as usually it's impossible for me to find a pair I feel comfortable enough to wear in public :), but I've been quite lucky of late to find amazing jeans and these are no exception!

Time to bring out the coats! :)

Since Summer is slowly slipping away, to my absolute delight  it's time to bring out the coats! :)

Kick starting the coat season is this checked grey beauty from Topshop, which besides ticking 2 of this AW season's best trends - greys and checks - it is also the perfect light, roll-your-sleeves-up kind of transitional coat we should all have in our wardrobes for days when the weather cannot quite decide which way to go.

Co-ordinated Love

Co-ordinates is a trend I adore but finding something that would suit my shape proved to be impossible during months of searching, until I stumbled upon this beauty in New Look.

The colours were what draw me in to begin with, as I thought they were perfect for Summer as well as for the transitional Autumn months, the fabric is easy to wear and the cut is perfect for my shape.

Had to get the blazer in a 10 and the shorts in a 12, but as always, I can definitely count on New Look sizes to suit me perfectly.
