Well hello - hope you've all had a good weekend. Can you believe it's DECEMBER tomorrow!? I'm loving the countdown! This weekend, Andy and I thought we'd start off our Christmas shopping with a trip through to Edinburgh. It's only an hour from Glasgow but we decided to book a hotel for the night so we could take our time, get dinner and drinks and make a weekend of it. We stayed at Edinburgh Capital Hotel, which was okay but a bit further out from the centre than we expected.
For shopping during the day, I wore my new burgundy wool skirt from Topshop. I'm loving wearing skirts with jumpers at the moment - I'm finally moving away from black skinny jeans! I have my eye on a few others now - including this leopard print one which I'm obsessed with, how typical that it's sold out! I threw my black wool Topshop coat from last year over the top to keep me warm and my huge check scarf, which came in handy for wrapping round my shoulders at dinner. After shopping, we went to Cafe Andaluz for tapas, and it was amazing as usual. I just can't fault that place. That chocolate and ginger cake .. wow.
Edinburgh looked so pretty at night with all the amusements and the pink sky behind the castle!
Have any of you started your Christmas shopping yet?

ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect festive weekend. Last year was the first time I'd been to the Christmas market in Edinburgh (usually we stick to Glasgow) and it was gorgeous, although we had to buy hats because it was so cold! Worth it though.
