Tropical








O U T F I T
Top: Topshop, Shorts: Topshop, Bag: River Island, Sandals: Topshop, Necklace: Pull and Bear, Sunglasses: Asos. 

As you read this blog I will probably be flying somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean, making my way back to cold, rainy, Ireland and dreaming of lounging on the beach in Little Corn with the sun warming my skin and remembering the great memories I made in such a unique country.

After spending a couple of days in Granada, a town in Nicaragua, we flew to an Island called Big Corn and from there we got a boat to Little Corn. A quaint slice of tropical heaven that allows you to enjoy your time in somewhat unheard of circumstances, for instance; electricity only runs from 2pm to 5am, internet comes and goes as it pleases and cold showers are the only option. Although the simplistic way of living did scare me at first, you really do learn to adapt and soon you forget what you were ever missing.


I've had this shorts and top mix for a long time and both are holiday favourites of mine. The top is a cross between a knit and a tank and the shorts a gorgeous light weight cotton, I love how the contrast of material balances each other out nicely.


The sandals are of course my most recent purchase, and were a great addition to my island wardrobe. My necklace is Pull and Bear and my sunglasses are Asos. I have had these glasses for a while and although I know they're not to everyone’s taste (mainly my family who love to make fun) I continue to adore them and love the vintage retro feel they bring to each ensemble.



Now that I will be back on Irish soil in no time, I will try to post the rest of my Nicaragua memories as soon as I can.



Thanks for reading,



Megan
