Park Guell in Barcelona - A MUST SEE!

 photo IMG_6464copy_zpsa1cfeee8.jpg I didn't know what to expect when the concierge told us to visit Park Guell and reserve 4 to 5 hours for getting round the park. I thought that was a long time, but goodness, it was no where near enough! 

 Park Guell is spectacular! Designed by Antoni Gaudi,  its a massive park set on a hill with loads of interesting architectural structures and beautiful greenery, and I'm not going to talk about the incredible view, check it out yourself and see why UNESCO has designated the Park a world heritage site!

Oh and do you like my photography skills? loving my new camera :-) Now if only I can figure out how to stop my pictures looking blurry on this blog I'd be a happy girl!

Barcelona OOTD - Visiting Park Guell

Its the most amazing park I have ever seen! More pictures to come in the next post.

In the meantime, here are the details of my outfit of the day. I kept it quite simple as I knew we were going to be climbing up hills and generally doing a lot of walking.

Chambray Shirt - Topshop
Skirt - Zara 
Tights - Marks and Spencer - I love their tights! Im quite tall so I always get the extra large because they don't fall down like my actual size would do. It was also a bit cold in Barcelona that day so I didn't want to risk a bare legged outfit!
Ballet Pumps - Next - amazing quality, I run though ballet pumps like nothing else and I was pleasantly surprised to find these way more sturdy than my usual Primark disposables.
Chain detail bag - this is my trusty Zara bag, I love it so much! I'm scared of running it to the ground but its served me well for over a year now!
Reflective sunglasses - Primark - serious steal at £2, compared to the Carrera ones I am still lusting after.
