The World Is Quiet Here...
It's taken a while to get these photos up, they were taken about three weeks ago at the Booth Museum, which is a Natural History museum about ten minutes walk from my home!
The museum was founded by Edward Booth in 1874 and is filled to the brim with his incredible collection of species - including some skeletal remains of a Dodo!
Sam and I went exploring one rainy afternoon in the middle of the week - so it was pretty much deserted!
Despite the nasty fluorescent lighting we decided to go ahead and photograph alongside the incredible taxidermy cases...
It's funny to see myself wearing so much make up, as I've been pretty much bare-faced the last few weeks (largely down to the ferocious, wet weather - where's the point eh?)
I'm wearing a vintage fur stole from Beyond Retro, that I pinned to create something which quite closely resembles a neck brace...
My slub-knit jumper and velvet shorts (a playsuit) are both from Topshop. I adore mixing textures in outfits, and these two go together so well!
Sam is so clever with his camera! These trips are great for the both of us - he gets better acquainted with the complex settings and I get some lovely blog photos to share with you all!
This cabinet blows my mind! The colours and the sheer scale of some of these birds is incredible. One of my favourites is the light green bird next to me on the right. It's called a 'Kakapo' - or Parrot Owl to you and I!
My silver mary-jane shoes were a Topshop sale purchase, they pinch my toes quite a bit so I'm still trying to break them in.
Also - seeing as it is Valentines Day tomorrow I thought I would pop another playlist as the last one was so well received! (Thank you!)
So whether you're madly in love, happily single, or bitterly burning photographs of ex-lovers there's something for everyone on this playlist!
Personally I think Valentines is a waste of money, but hey! I'm always down for an appreciation of love!
Love Yours Truly, x
