Macaroons and rainy days.

So on this really miserable rainy day my mom, sister and niece came to visit me in Leicester. They bought me and Joe wonderful housewarming gifts. To start with, a glass picture frame with 'You had me at hello' etched into the glass. They also bought us a set of candle holders that are dip dyed in pastel paint! My mom also thoughtfully knitted us a cushion cover in navy blue wool with brown wooden buttons. After gifts and nattering we went into town to my favourite place to eat, Mrs Bridges Tearooms, a pretty cosy eaterie that make the best sandwiches and macaroons. I discovered today that my niece Molly has an incredible taste in desserts, she too loves macaroons, so much so that I ordered a cup of  to share. After that we did a little bit of shopping. We're all a little Yankee candle mad so we spent an hour picking out individual burning tarts then I found a gorgeous tweed scarf, with weather like today it was hard not to buy it. I finally got around to purchasing a new purse, my Hello Kitty one just wasn't screaming out 'sophistication' anymore so I looked in Debenams and found that the Fiorelli floral purse I've been looking at forever had 20% off, so for a nifty £25 I got the purse of my dreams! I haven't really been doing outfit posts but I wore my sparkle and fade sleeveless pink shirt dress with a black H&M kimono over the top, I put it with black tights, a pair of black ankle boots and my pastel gold Aldo necklace.
