Yesterday, I visited the beautiful city of York. Only an hour train journey from where I live, we walked around the quaint cobbled streets, admired the contents within the unique boutiques and ate some delicious food.
After glorious weather last weekend, in true British style it poured with rain all day. As a result I wasn't able to take as many photographs as I would have liked. We frantically sought shelter rather than being able to take time to walk comfortably around the streets, taking in the sights. But I still had a wonderful time enjoying a city I had not visited for a few years, here are some moments from my day...

I completely agree with Marthe, you make me want to go to York. You take such amazing photos, the type that end up on weheartit and spread all around the world.
London is cold :( at least no rain. Going to watch SATC yippi.

I love York (and Betty's), shame about the weather!
haha i was going to say 'i hope you went to betty's!'. i love visiting there when i go to york.
Lovely! I've been to York twice- the last time to watch "A Single Man" in a small movie theatre...I never saw York in Daylight though...I guess that means I have to go again one day! :) The pictures are lovely & I love the shoes.
beautiful pictures, as always! :-)
It's really a pleasure browsing your blog.
Have a wonderful sunday!
Beautiful photos, I especially love the ones at the cafe. Looks like a great, relaxing weekend!
Nice photos!
I love York. Next time you go you should go on a ghost walk. And check out the Evil Eye Lounge on Stonegate.
Wow looks like another wonderful daytrip! I had no idea that York is the home of Nestle haha. I love what you're wearing too.

Such great photos. Cute ballet flats & it seemed like a wonderful time :)
Wonderful place! I want to be English or Scottish!!!
I hope you had a marmalade sandwich with your cup of tea in honour of Paddington Bear! Fingers crossed for better weather for the rest of the weekend...
Wonderful pictures!
I love the english weather :)
I can't tell you how much I love York. The Mr and I grew up just outside the city and it's always been a huge part of our lives. I hope we'll get married there when we eventually get round to it!
You've snapped some of my favourite places too. I also love ambling down the Shambles, walking on the walls and visiting the Salvation Army shop on Gillygate. x
Love the architecture of York. This reminds me that it's high time I visit York - I have fond memories of my previous visits.
Re. post on my blog - Yes, that goregeous YSL bag is indeed mine and was photographed my myself;-)
York is my nearest city and I'm at Uni in Newcastle so I love reading your posts coz it gives me ideas of where to visit! You put everything in such a beautiful light too!

Also, re: your comment on my accent, I'm not actually American! Although I did go to an American (international) school for 14 years, and all my teachers were American, so that has probably influenced the way I speak :)
i took so many pictures in the shop with the paddington bears! i loved it...actually i love york full stop

Boo to the rain! But at least you had fun in York (which sounds so lovely!!)
I've always been wondering. How exactly do get the kind of hazy, dream-like quality to your photographs? Is it something on photoshop,etc or the way you set up the mode on your camera?
Just found your sweet blog...I love it! I adore New York..I do want to go back soon. xoxox
you are GORGEOUS. the last photo is classic.
These are such beautiful photos. It makes me miss Europe so much. xx
Your pictures are so lovely. I love the architecture! I want to go to York someday now! I love how the butter is cut into such cute shapes.
Ah, I remember Paddington Bear!
Gosh, I absolutely adore looking through every picture you posted! York is so beautiful through your eyes:)
