Have you ever been to Bristol? Stokes Croft, specifically? Its an artist's haven. Walking to work has never been so interesting. Living in such a culture-steeped city, I see something new every day. It's beautiful.
Yesterday Em and I took our usual route into town and took some photos along the way. There are so many things I want to show you about this place, like, for example, how different, but accepting, everyone is here.

I'm wearing an outfit that Boohoo.com gifted me as part of their All Black
Friday campaign. When deciding on a place to model this look, both Em
and I knew it had to be Stokes Croft. Black and purple look so good together (if a
little witchy) don't you think?
A year ago I was living somewhere I had outgrown. Now I am where I am meant to be and it feels so comfortable and good.

I love these shoes. They were so comfortable and easy to wear. I managed to keep them on all day... until the long walk home when I changed into flats, heh. Em and I enjoyed burgers and fries for lunch AND dinner yesterday. Absolutely no regrets.
Where's your favourite place to indulge in a mini photoshoot? Big thank you to Boohoo.com for the clothes and to Em, who took these photos. What a star!
I also pass through Stokes Croft nearly every day. It's an area of Bristol I never used to go to until recently - I was always a bit put off by it for some reason, but now I love it for being totally different!

I adore it! It's definitely different, and not to everyone's taste, but there are so many wonderful independent shops and cafes, I can't get enough of it.

What a fab post, Naomi!! This witchy look really suits you ;) Perfect location, and a very gorgeous dress (double bonus points for the swing-factor, I would definitely wear it with burgers in mind as well!), and I also love how your hair mirrors the colours in this mural too! It seems to me that Bristol suits you, in every sense! I'm so glad to hear that you're happy there! :D
ReplyDeleteP.s thank you for the wonderful, wonderful comments you always leave on mine & Lee's blog. It never goes unnoticed, or unappreciated. xxxxx

Bristol is lovely but I'v not been here. Will have to add it to the list next time I'm that way as it looks so cool. Plus I love how you compliment the background ;)
