Birmingham Christmas Market

Hi guys,

How have you been? It’s been freezing lately, and I am finally starting to understand that winter is here – that’s it, there’s no turning back. Or is it? It’s England, so it might just turn sunny all of a sudden, you never know.

Either way, upgrading my winter wardrobe is in the books, so I shall go for a shopping session soon. And of course, share with you my picks – no worries, I’ll keep you posted! But, as November ends, apart from outfit shopping, we all know it comes the exciting part of the year – buying Christmas presents!!

Aaand along with the window shopping that we’ve all been doing so far (you know it) there is this pretty cute thing that also comes around called Christmas Market! If you haven’t been to one, it should definitely be on your wishlist!

It’s like entering a totally different, Christmassy, fairytalish world where everything is decorated to match the theme, the stalls are full of hand crafted pretty little things or very tempting food! And not to be forgotten – the mulled wine, hot chocolate and the chestnuts! Those are my favourite part of any Christmas fair!

Last Sunday we went to visit the Christmas Market in Birmingham, which is a German one, and, as every year, it didn’t disappoint! It got all of this, and a cozy atmosphere, with Christmas songs and even a live singer! Spending a day at a Christmas Market with good friends made my Sunday great!

Now that I think about it, when I was back in Romania, I never got excited about Christmas so early! I wouldn’t think of it or presents or things related until December! But here, ever since the Bonfire night, Christmas decorations kept coming up, followed by the lights and Christmas offers! It just gets you into the holiday spirit sooner, so now I cannot wait to start doing my Christmas shopping and then to finally get to spend Christmas with my family!

This weekend I will be going to the Christmas market in our little city, a Victorian Fayre this time, cannot wait!

Until then, enjoy the pictures from the Birmingham Christmas Market and see below details of the outfit I wore! Hope the rest of the week will be the best of the week for you, darlings!

Much love, D.
