Apologies for the delay since my last post, I spent the weekend staying with two of my best friends up in Edinburgh. I haven't been to Edinburgh since I was about ten so I couldn't remember much of it but as soon as I landed, I felt like I had come home. I will definitely be visiting again sooner rather than later. The weather was gorgeous (apart from Sunday morning) and I took so many photos that I will have to split them into two posts, you still have the National Gallery and the world's most hilarious bagpiper to come!
Is there anything nicer than being greeted with tea, snacks, a stack of magazines and a gorgeous bedroom to sleep in? I think not!
Fettes really is the most beautiful school, it looked like a gothic Disneyland!
I mean check out those pillars! ;)
After a wander through Inverleith Park- filled with smiley faces and frolicking dogs, it was starting to feel like we were in a movie. The setting was stunning and I love the fact that you can see all the way down into Edinburgh town too...
Banks of daffodils are guaranteed to brighten up your day.
I had never heard of Stockbridge before but it was recently voted the coolet place to live inScotland which I can well believe. With 13 charity shops and plenty of cute delis and cafes, it was a fashion blogger's dream...
Peter's Yard was our choice for lunch- these cakes sounded amazing but I was just about able to resist their charms...
Mainly because of this amazing 'winter slaw'- who knew cabbage could be so delicious?!
This was the most amazing veggie pizza- I love anything with artichoke hearts on and this sourdough pizza was delicious.
Plus, anything with parma ham on is bound to be a winner in my book!
I wish I could have taken this giant brie home with me but it was already a struggle to get everything back on the plane. Which stupid person decided to take hand luggage only?
Cobbled streets look beautiful but can be hellish on your feet!
I think Fredericks may be my new favourite tea shop, it was beautifully decorated and so relaxed. I love places where they aren't constantly trying to rush you out of the door! Definitely another stop on the fashion blogger tour too ;)
Plus, they didn't get too annoyed when we were spelling out Edinburgh in sugar sachets- definitely a win in my book!
A nice glass of wine (or two) ...
Delicious homemade fajitas, BGT and A Knight's Tale were the perfect combination for an amazing Saturday night. The best kind of friends are the ones who you can kick back in your pyjamas and watch rubbish TV with, amirite?
This was what I expected Edinburgh to look like everyday...

...but actually I couldn't get over how good the weather was, it made a beautiful city look even more gorgeous!
Have you ever visited Edinburgh?
