Pink Holiday

I'm really excited that in just under a month I will be travelling around Vietnam with my bff Lauren and husband Henry for three whole weeks! This is all of our first time visiting Vietnam or South East Asia for that matter so we're really looking forward to seeing the vast beauty of the country, experiencing the history and culture as well as eating all the yummy food (although Lauren is a vegan and I'm a vegetarian so not sure exactly how easy this will be for us, lucky ol' Henry can and will eat anything so he'll be fine haha!) We're travelling all over the country too - from Phu Quoc to Hanoi and in-between, staying in small beach side towns and big cities, saying I can't wait is an understatement and a half! I've been slowly collecting clothes that I think will travel well and be good in the humidity but still in my usual bright, fun and mostly pink style. This Gorman dress was a no brainier really, the perfect length for those windy days where anything shorter and your knickers are on show the whole day. The cute pink manicured hand print really sold me on it, as did the breathable cotton fabric which I like to live in come hot weather. All in all it is the perfect dress for the warmer weather and I can't wait to wear it in Vietnam #cantwait!!!

I was searching for the perfect pink tee to wear underneath the dress for sun protection for ages. It had to be the perfect matching pink or I wasn't going to get it. On my way home one day I popped into my local Dimmey's, which is a small chain of discount stores in Melbourne, and this pink t-shirt was just sitting there all on it's own with a $2.50 sticker on it. Of course I snapped it up as it was the exact shade of pink that I was after. Super lucky, it obviously was meant to be!

  4. these guys have some good tips for vego/vegan eating in Vietnam: http://herestheveg.blogspot.com.au/2015/07/ho-chi-minh-city.html They suggest seeking out cơm chay/cơm chay in markets - different combos of veg and rice. Also the Happy Cow app for finding restaurant recommendations. Enjoy!
