We took these photos last weekend whilst visiting Ross's Nanna, Aunt and Uncle in Birmingham just before all these horrible riots kicked off around the country. This is a bit of a late weekend outfit post but at least anther weekend is almost here! 

The weekend was lovely, we spent Saturday relaxing, looking through old family photographs and eating dinner at The Queens pub in the beautiful English countryside. On Sunday Ross's nanna surprised me with a bundle of amazing vintage dress's from the 50's and 60's for me to take home... I couldn't have been more happier to accept these stunning dresses which I will share with you soon. We also went for a walk in the Clent hills and ended sunday with another full tummy from a home cooked roast dinner. There are lots of inspiring old houses in Birmingham, check out the ones above.

Its been a strange and worrying week with all the pointless riots which were so close to us, things seem a lot calmer now and I'm hoping it stays this way for all of the UK.

Any interesting plans for this weekend?
