Barcelona

I was recently lucky enough to visit the beautiful city of Barcelona with my sister. I've wanted to visit the city for years and it did not disappoint. I was blown away by the architecture, the relaxed atmosphere and the shops of course! 

We got off to a bit of a rocky start, missing our train stop by a long shot. Still we persevered, chocking it down to a bit of an adventure. Being lost in such a beautiful place wasn't really that bad.


We stayed in the Generator Hostel and were upgraded to a hotel room which was absolutely amazing. We had our own terrace with a gorgeous view, below, and our own lemon tree!





Above are two oufits I wore on the trip. I love this first outfit, giraffes are my favourite animal so I had to buy these pants from New Look. My tshirt is from H&M and my necklace from Claire's. The second outfit is a dress I picked up in River Island last year. It's so comfortable and really nice for just wondering around the city.



We met my cousin Emma who is living in Barcelona at the moment on work placement for college, I'm super jealous. You can check out her blog here. 



The architecture in Barcelona is so amazing, not only in fabulous buildings like the Sagrada Familia but all over the city.







This was too cute a picture of Grace not to add it in. Her jumpsuit is from Lefties, necklace from River Island and her shoes are Toms.


We visited the food market on Les Ramblas and spent too much money on chocolate. 


I still dream about these churos. Such sweet goodness.


These are another two outfits, quite colour coordinated now that I look at them. The tshirt and shorts in the first outfit is from Zara, the cardigans in both are from Lefties, the black tshirt is from H&M as well as my necklace and the daisy skirt is from Forever 21. My flower bun topper is from Penneys!

One piece of advice I would give to anybody visiting Barcelona is to bring comfortable shoes, I made the mistake of just bringing new sandals and my feet were broken. I had an amazing time and I really hope to go back some day.
