Do you want some mustard with that? - OOTD

Jumper - H&M - £7.99

Shorts - Topshop - old

Tights - Primark - £3.50

The weather's been getting a lot colder recently and Autumn's finally starting to show it's face, so I used that as inspiration when putting together this outfit, especially with the autumnal colours which I just love. I would usually pair these shorts with a black top and my black leather jacket but I recently brought this mustard H&M jumper and I knew it would go perfectly with the yellow in the shorts. I also paired this outfit with my suede Chelsea boots from Schuh and when it gets a bit colder I'll probably add my leather jacket on top. 

I was brought these shorts for Christmas last year but you can find similar pairs here, here, here and here.

Last week: Swanage & Airbourne

001. Deciding which pictures to choose for this post was so hard because there was so many. I had to push two posts into one because I've got so many ideas for posts that I'm going to run out of time to the point that they'll all become irrelevant. But last week I went on holiday to Swanage in Dorset and then over the weekend Airbourne was on in Eastbourne - my camera was loving it.

002. We went to Swanage from Sunday to Thursday and all in all it was lovely. We go there every year and despite the forecast, the sun comes out every time which is perfect with the sandy beach and wanders round the cute shops. Because Harry came this year there wasn't space in the car to go travelling around but on the Tuesday we caught the bus to Tower Park (highly recommend if you're near Poole) and on Wednesday it was Dad's birthday so we hired some kayaks. The only downside to the holiday was the fact that we stayed in a youth hostel. It was dirty, the room was incredibly cramped, it hadn't been refurbished in about 25 years and just overall tragic to say the least, so if anyone's looking to stay in Swanage any time soon, don't consider it!

003. From Thursday to Sunday Eastbourne held it's annual airshow Airbourne and I have to say it's one of my favourite events during the year. The atmosphere is always great and the displays never disappoint, especially from The Red Arrows. Because I missed out last year I went on Saturday with the family and then on Sunday with Harry and both were completely different. The weather was lovely on Saturday, we had a picnic on the beach and The Arrows did a more large scale display with more moves (I can't think of a better word I'm sorry); whereas on Sunday the weather was a bit cloudier so there wasn't as many 'moves' and they were closer. Each was equally as good though.

Manchester Day 2

Day 2 dragged on a bit. We started off with a bit of culture at the town hall, the John Ryland libary and the Museum of Science and Industry, then me, mum and my nan did a spot of shopping in the Arndale followed by a bit of walking around the top left hand corner of Manchester to places like the big wheel, the National Football Musuem and the Phones 4 U Arena where I'll be going next year.

I'm a typical teenager when it comes to museums and cultural things. It really doesn't amuse me in the slightest but it did surprise me a bit because the architecture is pretty great, like the John Ryland libary which had been partly refurbished for public access yet they still had bits of the original design and the 100 year old toilets. To be honest I was amazed by the architecture everywhere, from the office blocks to some really cute resturants and bars.

It was an alright day I suppose but to top it all off my back and my feet absolutely killed after someone decided that we wouldn't use trams or buses but walk everywhere instead.

Manchester Day 1 - Travelling & Media City UK

If the title didn't give it away, I went to Manchester with the family on Monday. The first day was probably the best because it was the only day the sun came out and everything we did, I actually had an interest in. It was a very public transport involved day. We got the train up to Euston, London and then a Virgin train from Euston to Machester.

We then went to our Premier Inn before getting a tram to Media City in Salford Quay. Honestly, this place is just me all over. There's an outlet mall, resturants (including Nando's), amazing modern achitecture and the ITV and BBC studios. I'm going to try and come back up or go to London in the near future and have a tour because me and dad peeked through the window of the BBC Sport recording studio and it was so facinating. They also have the Salford University which, in that area, specialises in media, so maybe in a few years I might find myself up there more often.

If you're looking for things to do in Manchester I'd recommend going to check of the Quay and Media City because it's so clean and friendly and there's honestly something for everyone and it's so easy to get to.

Strawberry ice cubes

With over two weeks of beautiful, hot, sunny weather I think we've all established that it's finally summer. It's time to bring the fresh summer fruits and the ice cold drinks out, but after having the idea of killing two birds with one stone, putting them together is 100x better.

I found inspiration of these strawberry ice cubes on Tumblr and whoever came up with this is a genius. They look so cute and make give your water a bit more taste, making the whole water-drinking experience a bit more interesting really.

They're so easy to make too, all you need is:

• An ice cube mould (we've got ours from IKEA and they're made out of silicone so it's easy to pop them out)
• Strawberries
• A chopping board
• A knife
• A jug
• Water

How to make them:

1. Using the knife, cut the strawberries into small chunks on the chopping board and place them into each mould, depending on the size of the mould.
2. Fill the jug with water and carefully fill each mould up. However don't fill it right to the top as the water needs space to expand when it freezes. (You don't have to use a jug, you can just put the mould under the tap, it just makes it a little bit easier)
3. Place the mould into your freezer making sure that you don't spill anything and you have a clear space to put it.
4. Leave in the freezer for 24 hours at the least. 
5. Once they've frozen you can pop them out into you drink and enjoy!

P.s. you don't have to use strawberries, me and Harry also tried it with grapes and I'm sure things like raspberries, blueberries and apples would work just as great too!
