I decided to have a little adventure since my holiday this year isn't until right at the end of summer. I was hoping to go to Brighton or Oxford but the day that was free to go was a horrid, grey and rainy affair so closer destinations had to be settled for. Cambridge was the choice. It's just at the other end of our train line, an hour away on one train, and I had heard good things. The rain did put a damper on the day but a nice walk along the river was involved and a music shop visit cheered me up too.
This is the dress that I saw on ten million bloggers and hunted for relentlessly until finally finding it in Leeds. Then I proceeded to find a polka dot version in Cambridge. Might just have to pop back in to H&M for that one too. I have a lot of combinations for this dress in mind and no doubt, it'll be coming along to Denmark/Sweden with me.
This weekend, everyone is dashing off to Reading Festival or camping trip or back to university and I wish I could be doing every single one of them. I said I didn't want to go to Reading Festival this year as I had many grander festival plans in the pipeline but all of them fell through so now I'm left wishing I'd bought a ticket and cursing the fact I'm going to spend my weekend parked in front of BBC instead.
Still my favourite brooch. Summer is nearly over now and it feels strange how fast its gone.
What was the highlight of your summer?

i love your brooch!!! everything looks so cute, i just love your dress!! the tights and the cardigan also look awesome!! i know i can't believe summer is almost over :(
You are such a beautiful girl!~ :)
And it's crazy how fast this summer went by. It seems like just last week I got my diploma, and now I'm finishing by college-back to school shopping. Time really does fly, to say the least.
Glad you were able to enjoy the grey weather!
you're the first one I've seen this dress on ^.~
you look really cute! I especially like the crimson red cardi with the black/white striped dress.
Ooh you came to Cambridge, would've been funny if we had met because I wore this dress today! hah. I like the way you've styled it - it's true so many bloggers have it, but we all wear it quite differently. Where else did u go on your little visit? x
Cute brooch! Glad you enjoyd Cambridge, I've never been myself.
My summer is far from over! I leave for uni in a month!

Beautiful! Definitely one of my favorite outfits of yours.
That dress looks lovely on you, and that brooch is adorable! I agree that it feels like summer's gone so fast, and I'm kind of scrambling to get ready for school next week.
Love the dress, I can see why you have so many outfits planned for it! It's so versatile and I bet it goes with everything. Lovelovelove the cardigan (which I've probably said before)

that pin is so cute! and i totally agree that summer has gone by fast. i feel like it does every year. winter always feels never ending and summer just comes and goes in what feels like a few weeks. But im really looking forward to the fall, its my favorite season =]
omg that pin is ADORABLE and i'm still hopelessly in love with your maroon cardigan :) i love all the colors in this outfit!
I've seen that dress a lot as well, but you've styled it so well that it seems new! I'm loving it with your grey tights and darker red sweater, so perfect for transitioning to fall. I just love the understated colors here.
Ahahaa the love of the stripes spreads! I've worn this dress to death lately, who else did you see had it?
