Corsets and Crinolines // On Wednesdays We Wear

The Fashion room at the V&A Museum is every little girl's dream.  I love it there, every time I go I spend an age poring over the fabulous dresses, wishing I was living the life of Downton Abbey or The Great Gatsby. This weekend was no exception. It was a very rainy Sunday and what do you do on a rainy Sunday? The V&A of course! If you haven't been to see the incredible vintage outfits at the V&A or even just to the Museum generally then I would definitely recommend it for a Sunday afternoon trip. The Building itself it just beautful and is actually just very soothing to sit in. (I know I sound weird...)  The Natural History Museum next door also has a Christmas are outside with an Ice Skating Rink which is perfect to get in the mood for Christmas.

The V&A Museum and The Natural History Museum are open 7 days a week.
