Festivals!

There is a major part of summer that everyone gets excited for - FESTIVALS! Now I've been lucky enough to go to quite a few festivals in my 20 years of living including Reading and Latitude and this year is no different, I'm off to Glastonbury (ahhhhh) and Latitude again!

Last year we went to Latitude for the first time and were lucky enough to stay at our friends house in Suffolk. We only go for one day so this post isn't going to focus on this particular festival (although I am super excited)!!!

No, this post is purely focussing on my festival outfits for Glastonbury! My family were sooo lucky to get tickets for the festival on the second release (bear in mind we had like 7 computers and 3 phones trying to get them). But we're actually going and I couldn't be more excited!

Recents

As some of you may know, being at university means that you spend a lot of time either working, eating or sleeping (probably more of the latter two) but that means that I have kind of neglected my blogging a bit. As I'm getting nearer the end of term, deadlines are approaching and there will be a lot of going out, so I may be a bit M.I.A but I will try my hardest to keep up with my posts!

Anyway, that out of the way, even though I haven't been blogging a lot, I have been instagramming (http://instagram.com/katiecrossthwaite) quiiiite a bit so I thought what better way to get back into blogging than by doing another Recents post...so here you go!

Recents

A lot of the time, I post my recent outfits onto my Instagram page (www.instagram.com/katiecrossthwaite) and then completely forget about them! So I'm going to start a new regular post on my blog showcasing my recent outfits or purchases using the posts from my Instagram page and I will try and do this at least once a fortnight (depending on if I remember/if I've worn or bought anything especially nice)...so here is my first "Recents" post!

Tea at Fortnum and Mason in London

Playsuit - Miss Selfridge

Chelsea Boots - Topshop

Bracelets - Thomas Sabo, Pandora

Earrings - Spitalfields Market

Tea at Tewinbury Farm in Hertfordshire

Jeans - Topshop

Top - Topshop

Necklace - Miss Selfridge

Shoes - New Look

Bracelet - Thomas Sabo

I finally bought the infamous Zara mini skort which I have wanted for so long now!

It is in this season's collection but they are very scarce as they are extremely popular but you can get them from here: http://www.zara.com/uk/en/-/mini-skort-c469005p1295913.html for £25.99

I got this bracelet as a present for getting my grades to get into University from my parents.

It is a single woven leather bracelet in purple (http://www.pandora.net/en-gb/explore/products/bracelets#!590705CPE-S) with a little dress pendant charm (as I'm studying fashion ) (http://www.pandora.net/en-gb/explore/products/charms/791031) and then two decorative clips either side (http://www.pandora.net/en-gb/explore/products/charms/791031#!790446/subcat/13)

With the leather bracelets, it's best to get the clips either side as the charm always swivels round. Also, when you get the clips, you have to get little rubber inserts, so make sure you ask for these as well!

KOS!

At the beginning of August, me and my best friend went on a girly holiday to Kos, Greece! We have been best friends for like 15 years now and have never been on a holiday together, just us two. So what better time than this summer. She is two years below me and so we had to wait for her to finish school (which was ridiculously late) to go but on the 3rd August, off we went!
If anyone is thinking about visiting Kos, I highly recommend it. It was one of the best weeks of my life and we had such a good time. We stayed in the Niriides Hotel just outside of Kos Town. We got told that Kardamena was the "party place" but that Kos Town was still okay. No...Kos Town was so much fun and had some really good places to go at night. We became regulars at Hush and Wild Bull Bar which I think were the best places - oh and in Hush (if you're a girl), get up onto the bar - you get free shots!
I'm not going to put all of my 600 pictures up on here but I thought I'd give you a brief look into what we got up to - as well as my outfits!

Kos tops - view from the balcony - beach - dinner shots - Kos town - first night - fish bowl - street dancing - Greek night - second fish bowl - beach - harbour - Cosmo - froyo - beach - being a child on the play area

beach - tan lines - last night cocktails - our new friend John - last night drinks - drunk walk home - Thermal Springs - in a natural thermal spring - beach - last night dinner - before travelling home

Kefalonia!

So I just got back from Kefalonia (an island in Greece), hence why I haven't posted in AAAGES and it was so amazing. Such nice weather and so so nice to get away for a couple of days!
