The Grounds of Alexandria • Food • Part 2 of 4

Food glorious Food!

What I love about the Grounds is their feel good food.

Whether it's their hard to say no treats; refreshing and innovative salads;

 too cool for school breakfasts or filling lunches, there is always something to eat.

The Grounds of Alexandria • Scenery • Part 1 of 4

 The Grounds of Alexandria is not just a place to eat, it is an experience.

There are so many facets about the place, that make it alluring and enchanting.

Now I must say that no one is paying me to rave about the venue, 

but rather I am one who wishes people would share all their personal hidden treasures with me, 

so I plan to do that. Share all the places I explore and enjoy, in the hopes that it may inspire you to go there too :)

Orange

I never appreciated the flamboyant nature of the colour orange. 

In it's brightest form, it personifies a personality of its own.

One who demands attention, who's warm and friendly, and is the life of the party.

Blue • Nail Art

 As the unusual raindrops trickled down, and the what was a too good to be

 Spring weather transitioned into a depressing, track-suit pant wearing week, 

I had to paint my nails something whimsical,  to bring a little fun back into the day

Spring

The definition of Spring is originate. 

And when I visited an old and neglected childhood hideout of mine,

 filled with imagination and my now nostalgia, I couldn't help but think of my childhood and all the moments that had escaped my memory.

Blue Rose

Baby blue and white is an elegant combination that I have been loving for Spring.
Plus no matter how much I invest my best efforts in to having a more mature yet youthful wardrobe,
I just can't stay away from crop tops and high waisted bottoms.
However, I feel with some great quality fabrics you can still manage to pull of
a polished look.

Hippie • Nail Art

I'm super experimental when it comes to my nails;

and although this look may not be for you, like it isn't for my mother...

I felt that these were the perfect statement to express my inner flower child.

Pretty in Punk

Who says you can’t look a little edgy and wear pink at the same time!? 

To be honest I felt like I was channeling a variety of vibes. From gypsy to country to tribal to even the 60s! 

Whatever this look is meant to represent, what I love is the colour.

 Too often I find myself shying away from the ‘lollypop’ colours, when I really shouldn’t; 

and hopefully this should inspire you to not do so too.
