Bonjour! A blog post is long over due and with exams over and having had a short break I thought now would be the perfect time to sit down and write one. What better than to share my adventures of recently going to Provence, France. I've never been before and I've always seen fashion bloggers post their Saint Tropez pics and look at them with envy, so when my dad told me it was where we where heading I was ecstatic. I can now understand why people would choice to vacation there as it is so peaceful and beautiful.
On the first day we went to Plage De L'Estagnol which was so cute and very secluded. Boats filled the sea and it was so lovely to see people jumping off and just sailing around in the far distance. We then ate lunch on the beach and I had a delicious Italian Salad which was light and refreshing in the 35 degree heat.
On the tuesday of our holiday we decided to head into the centre of St Tropez, but how better than boat! We got a yacht from Port Grimaud which was built in the same structure as Venice. The Yacht took us to the port of St Tropez where we anchored down next to the biggest boats I had ever come across.
We sat and drank cocktails near the port soaking up the atmosphere and relaxing before deciding to look around the shops. One of the most extravagant shopping destinations in the world it housed the likes of Chanel, Gucci, Fendi and even it's very own Dior Cafe.
Midweek we took a trip to Cannes. A very busy and much bigger port in comparison to St Tropez. Due to the popularity of the famous Cannes Film Festival it is was very commercial and to me not as pretty. Never the less it was extraordinary to see.
When in Cannes a spot of shopping has to be done!
We ate lunch on the beach again at a very sleek restaurant called L'Alba, where you could rent sun beds and spend the whole day baking in the sun. However for me it was a bowl of pesto pasta and a glass of Rose wine.
On our final day we visited a cute town called Cotignac which was very typically french, we strolled in and out of the centre and viewed the markets, I would highly recommend this if you were near by as they do fantastic ice creams.
What did you get up to this summer?
