The grey skirt and jacket are a suit, but they are great to mix-and-match when you want a splash of colour, or indeed when you are trying to pack a capsule wardrobe for a weekend trip!<br /><br />I suppose that vintage shopping can depend on a bit of luck too, as Laurence from Lost in the 50s has told me that she found great vintage in Brussels. Quite honestly, I think the best place for vintage shopping is in the USA! xxIncendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657621815107619381.post-21802522735472680392013-07-09T08:04:46.723+01:002013-07-09T08:04:46.723+01:00Those waffles look as scrumptious as you do stylis...Those waffles look as scrumptious as you do stylish in all these lovely snapshots. The grey jacket with the red skirt is especially fetching - I will have to try to recreate that look myself when the temps dip back down a bit here.<br /><br />I'm sorry that you trip didn't quite live up to the hopes you'd set for it. True vintage is getting harder and harder to find these days in so many places. I must say though, I would have loved to have seen a shop with Victorian dresses from the 1850s - even if they were way above my budget or didn't fit, it would be awesome just to be in the presence of garments that old (here in Canada, a relatively newborn nation, anything from the Victorian era or further back is big time old). Fingers firmly crossed that your next vintage shopping trek - wherever it may be - goes a whole lot more fruitfully for you both.<br /><br />♥ Jessica <br /><br />Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657621815107619381.post-11594741404448954042013-07-08T16:53:23.350+01:002013-07-08T16:53:23.350+01:00Oooh you just have the best shopping karma - we co...Oooh you just have the best shopping karma - we couldn't find ANYTHING!!!! Hahah! <br /><br />I am still glad that we went, and we did have fun together, but it was just not what we were expecting. I think when you live in a vibrant city like London, where there is always so much happening, then it can be a bit of a disappointment to go to a city that is not as exciting....however, I now want to go to Bruges, as I have heard so many great things about it!Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657621815107619381.post-81520056600553824192013-07-08T16:51:01.176+01:002013-07-08T16:51:01.176+01:00Thank you!

I am definitely with you on the macaroons though - love them. Did you ever read my post (aaages ago) about the first time I made a batch of them?<br /><br />I am not sure how it works when you miss your Eurostar train, as luckily, I have never missed mine! That said, I can imagine that you would probably have to buy a new ticket and deal with a lot of drama!<br /><br />EVERYONE keeps telling me about how awesome Bruges it! Damnit, I wish we would have know before we booked our train to Brussels hahahah!<br /><br />I'm glad we are in agreement of boring Brussels! :P<br />Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657621815107619381.post-53188970844421966762013-07-08T16:43:34.740+01:002013-07-08T16:43:34.740+01:00That is definitely true - even when something is n...That is definitely true - even when something is not how you expected, it can still be fun to share experiences with someone you get on so well with.<br /><br />Awww Virginia City sounds col, but I can imagine that if you are not into it, then it must have seemed super boring!Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657621815107619381.post-81762383378850797522013-07-08T16:42:10.794+01:002013-07-08T16:42:10.794+01:00I agree - I'm glad we wen't but I don'...I agree - I'm glad we wen't but I don't feel the need to go back...ever!

You missed your train... too bad you were waiting for at least two hours. Is that how it is now as well?<br /><br />That picture of you two in the lift is so cute and funny. You are right, it is the smallest lift in the world.<br /><br />You two should try to go to Bruges next time. It is supposed to be very romantic and "off the beaten path" still to a degree.<br /><br />Macaroons! Oh god how I love thee.<br /><br />You are right, those doors are all so gorgeous and TALL.<br /><br />I will admit that I spent only a short time in Brussels when I was on a train layover and thought I was the only person that didn't love that city.

But at least you had Loverboy to keep you company and entertain you. It's always easier when you have a partner who is willing to brighten the day and try new things. <br /><br />When we first moved to Nevada, my husband's uncle took us to Vriginia City. It's one of the oldest mining towns in Nevada. They made it sound really cool and fun but it wasn't. It was cool. . . if you were into the Old West and I'm not. There's not much to see and do.

I was glad we went but felt I did not need to return. I would highly recommend Bruges if you have not been and decide to try Belgium again.
