Let You Break

Dress: Vintage
Lace shell: Tesco
Socks: ASOS
Shoes: Urban Outfitters


Due to the size of Toulouse, we decided to go on a day trip to a nearby town called Carcassonne while we were in France. It was only an hour and a bit by train there so we hopped on board, after some serious translation issues with collecting our tickets that involved us seeing a dog wearing a scarf, and went on our merry way. 
Carcassonne was a really pretty town with cobbled streets and quaint squares. There was a castle that we trekked up to (might be exaggerating with trek) which had amazing views all over the town. We ate crepes in the square and bought strawberries from the market. It was all in all a very french day. We spent the afternoon on a boat trip along the canal where I soaked up the sun and made our own entertainment because we couldn't understand a word of the heavily french accented tour guide. We finished our time there by laying next to the river, a repeated activity throughout the trip, before jumping on the train home. 
The outfit photos were taken outside a church that was stunning inside. Unfortunately in the group photo we only managed to capture scaffolding but take my word for it. I wore my staple floral vintage dress that I wear all the time but made it into what's becoming my staple school girl style with a lace top underneath and knee highs.
