Studs and Khaki | OOTD



Recently I went for brunch in Cirencester with a couple of friends, so naturally roped one of them into taking a few snaps.  

I'm not usually one for wearing colour but I can stretch to a bit of khaki and blue denim from time to time. On this occasion I was wearing an oversized khaki shirt from Zara which I absolutely love! They don't do it anymore but there are a lot of similar ones out there. I went for the basic Joni Topshop jeans and a plain white tee from H&M (similar here). My boots are also from Topshop, as is the leather jacket. The studded bag is from Select, it's not somewhere I usually shop but a while back my friend informed me that they had this bag online so I had to get it! Finally the accessories; the necklace was a gift from my friend, from Accessorize and the sunnies are a recent purchase from Next.

Bottomless Brunchin' at New Street Grill | Lifestyle

What better way to spend a Saturday than drinking bottomless prosecco with some pretty cool people? Well that's exactly what I did a couple of weeks ago when I was visiting Sophie in London and I bloody loved it. 

In London there are SO many options for places to go for a bottomless brunch, but we ended up going to the New Street Grill in East London. For £15 you can get bottomless prosecco for two hours when you order any main meal; they also have a set menu for just £20 for 2 courses, which is what we chose. 





If you visit New Street Grill then DEFINITELY go for the rosemary bread, it was absolutely delicious and I mean ABSOLUTELY. I could eat a whole loaf of it, it was that good. 

To start I opted for the scotch egg, black pudding and tomato relish, I hadn't had black pudding before so I wasn't sure if I'd like it, but it was really nice! I almost went for the pancakes but I was definitely happy with my choice once I'd dug in. 

Both the Sophie's went for the pancakes with maple syrup, blueberry compote and vanilla cream - this also looked dreamy and the girls seemed to enjoy it! 




For my main I went for Josper grilled Chimichurri marinated Barnsley chop with garlic black cabbage. This was equally as good as the starter, although I wish I'd through to get some carbs to go with it! 

Both Sophie's (it must be something to do with the name) went for the salt cod fishcake with gem heart salad and Tzatzki which was also delicious!   



Once we'd finished eating we took our glasses into the bar area (which was really cool) and lounged about by the giant mirrored wall before making our way home. 


So if you're in London and lost for something to do I definitely recommend that you check this place out! There was also a really cool seating area outside, although you might want to wait a few more months before trying that out... 

That's all for today, so I'll leave you with a song by my latest man crush, Matt Corby
