Restaurant review - Solita

Tristan and I are big foodies. We are always searching for new places to eat but so far our most visited place has been Solita. This American style restaurant is located in the Northern Quarter in Manchester and is easily accessible as we live in the city centre. 

Our first time at Solita was in January this year. How can I remember this? I found some photos of our very first Solita experience on my phone - we were sitting downstairs and everything was so... red. Thinking about it now, it almost felt Christmas-y. I had a Krabby Patty burger (with a whole soft-shell crab!) with chips. For dessert I had a Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge Brownie with Oreo ice cream.




Tristan's favourite burger is The Schnitz - chicken schnitzel and barbecque chicken (in the picture below he had it with pizza fries).


My favorurite is the KFB - melted Monterey Jack cheese, jalapenos, bourbon BBQ sauce and Kentucky Fried bacon. 



Solita also does specials not on the menu. This one is the Mac Daddy - a deep fried macaroni and cheese bun with beef, bacon and lettuce. I heard that it might be coming back as it was so popular.


There are four options for dessert and all of them come with ice cream. The Solita Ice Cream Donut Sandwich is one of the best desserts on the menu - Cheshire Farm's vanilla ice cream sandwiched between a donut with warm chocolate sauce and dark chocolate pieces on top.


Have any of you been to Solita? What was your favourite burger or dessert? If you've not yet been, I recommend paying them a visit!

The Body Shop Manchester Arndale Bloggers Event

I've been blogging for almost two years now but I'd still consider myself a newbie in the blogging world. On Thursday I had the chance to go to my first bloggers event at The Body Shop in Manchester to celebrate the release of an amazing new range on the 5th of May, including new bronzing items and a couple of vitamin C products! I was wearing my butterfly bow-tie brooch to the event and styled it with a white short sleeved shirt. It was a closed door event, so it was a good opportunity to browse all of the products and explore the new ones thoroughly! The event started at 8pm and I was one of the first ones to arrive. We were welcomed with milkshakes, fruit cocktails and lemonade. I went for water - shy and modest! There was also a white chocolate fountain and strawberries we had the chance to enjoy. The event was carried out by Fiona - she is a skin expert at the Manchester store. Everyone was able to get personal skin consult...

OOTD - The sun has come out!

It has been such a long time since my last fashion post, I've been missing them so much! The second the sun came out, Tristan and I went to the canal and took a few pictures. I think it is still too early for sunglasses but a light jacket is okay when you wear a jumper underneath (Primark) and a cosy leopard print scarf (Linea Cashmink) around your neck.  My black Veromoda jacket and shoes are both from Best Secret. You'll all know by now how much I've been raving about it. I think it is an amazing place for online shopping. I love the copper detailing and the simple look on my jacket, plus it's super lightweight. My trainers are by Puma & Alexander McQueen (click here to read my previous post). I also just noticed that I don't have any good shots of my Michael Kors bag, which I absolutely adore by the way! I'm sure everybody knows how beautiful these bags are so I think this will do for now. The bag and scarf were both Christmas presents fr...

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips

  Today I want to talk a bit about my hair and my recent purchase from a company called Lilla Rose . Lilla Rose is a unique hair and jewellery accessory company from the US. They have many different hair items but I was more interested in their beautiful and well-known Flexi Clip. I got myself two of these - Autumn's Delight in size small and Festive Leaf in extra small. Before ordering I made sure of which size would fit best for my flat and thin hair.       Both of my Flexi Clips look stunning. The beaded wire is quite bendable but strong, the sliding pin is adjustable and they feel high-quality. I chose mine in a copper/rust shade but there are also silver and gold shades and so many different styles and colours available. As I recently cut my long hair short, I don't have many options with styling. I usually just wear my hair in a ponytail or a half ponytail. Autumn's Delight fits all my hair between the clip and Festive Leaf is perfect for a smal...
