Cake & Cocktails

Sunday was our last day in Edinburgh and we rounded off a great weekend with yet more good food and cocktails (running theme here)!

After French toast with Greek yogurt and berries in bed, we got ready and headed out into the beautiful sunshine. Of course we (read, I) couldn't resist a spot of shopping so we scoured the sales for a cool haven from the heat. After a refreshing drink at Cafe Rouge, we returned to the shops to whet our appetite for Afternoon Tea at Tigerlily.

Now, believe me when I say that you will want to arrive hungry for the delights in store here! From smoked salmon & cream cheese sandwiches to clotted cream and jam scones - with cupcakes, brownies & strawberry tarts in between - this really was a feast fit for a queen! Add cocktails served in tea pots then some breakfast tea to finish and we had very happy tummies indeed! Even if it did mean hitting the treadmill that night when I got home...

A great end to a great weekend - it was all about the company, Ange (although luxury surroundings, good food & champagne helped too)! Now for the detox!

I wore:
Dress by H&M (an Edinburgh purchase!);
gladiators by Topshop & bag by Rebecca Minkoff
