Blue Leopard Print Skinnies & The Rolling Hills Of Devon

These lovely pictures (I’m referring to the location and my photographer’s skills) were taken in the Teign Valley in Devon, only a half hour’s drive from where we live. It was the most amazing landscape I’ve seen since we went to the Grand Canyon two years ago (it definitely compared in a smaller scale, British kind of way). It’s very naughty when these beautiful places are right on your doorstep and you’ve never been there before. Must. Do. Better.

We spent the day exploring the last castle to be built in the UK (Castle Drogo in Drewsteignton, built about a century ago, seen on top of the hill in the next-to-last picture), and the gorgeous hills and walks in the area. It was comfies on for all the walking – I debuted my new leopard print skinnies and got the layers on for the cold; although it was beautifully sunny, the parka was needed for a little sleep in the sun on the warm rocks. I thought I’d mention the ON/OFF brooches… there’s no hidden meaning, I just liked them – simple as that. Interpret as you wish…!
