The exhibitions itself is not the biggest I have ever been to but it is filled with information which is a lot to take in but very interesting. I visited on a Tuesday afternoon around 3pm so the exhibition was extremely quiet however that meant I could take my time and look at everything in detail. My favourite piece from the exhibition was the map print dressing gown and underwear which were made from the maps used by pilots.
After the exhibition we decided to go into the center of town where we found a vintage photo booth and could not resist giving it a try.

The weather has been so chilly recently, therefore I decided to warm up my orange and black print culottes, which were my fave throughout summer because of their gorgeous floaty material, with a black turtle neck jumper, furry gilet and my boohoo coat. I bought this shearling style avaitar coat at the start of the winter season because I thought it was the closest I would get to the amazing Acne Studios Velocite shearling coat I fell in love with last year. However more and more stores are starting to produce them including Topshop, Urban Outfitters and Primark but due to being tall and having really long arms they were all a little short for me.
