I'll Take You To The Candy Shop

Another sunnier day and another little outfit post for everyone. I've had a couple of good outfit days before I went off and I did get the fella to take some pictures but it's taken me until now to actually get around to posting them for your viewing pleasure. This was when I and the fella went to a chocolate shop nearby where my parents live. It's called Hanson's and used to be in their actual village but now it's in one a little further down; I remember going there a lot as a child to buy their white chocolate shapes. Even as a teenager I would go there because I thought the chocolate masked the smell of cigarette smoke, how dense was I? That's a rhetorical question by the way! Anyway I still love popping over to Hanson's and buying handmade truffles in little pink candy stripe bags.


The look of glee on my little face as I clutch my bag of candies; ahh memories! I remember as a child telling mum I wanted money for Easter instead of an egg and as soon as I got my money I went round to Hanson's and bought chocolate; what a goof!


When we were in the shop a really nice couple told us they liked our outfits and asked if we dressed like this every day or if there was an event on as they like to go to Steampunk festivals. It was really sweet of them!


And finally amen to that!
