The Sunday Post: BBQ for two

There's nothing better than the smell of a BBQ on a sunny weekend, second to that there's nothing better than munching into a juicy sausage bun and BBQ chicken. Mhm. I'm currently bedridden with the world's worst hangover and finding it hard to eat, so I hope you appreciate the absolute longing you're putting me through whilst looking back at these scrummy BBQ snaps and putting them up for you. It was darn' good.

It was a bit of a last minute deal, with Jon running off to co-op to snatch up one of their last disposable bbq's so we could enjoy the nice weather in style. The chicken was mouth wateringly good but he won't tell me what he put on it, afraid his secret recipe will be stolen but he has assured me if there is public demand, he might have to reconsider. Yep, that's my boyfriend.

It was a truly perfect evening before we curled up with a duvet and laughed our heads off at the The Comedy Gala. So, why not grab your loved ones and throw a BBQ whilst the British summer lasts, go ahead, tuck in...

For those of you that follow me on instagram (ohlittlered) you might have spotted me uploading quite a few sumptuous snaps of our last minute September BBQ at Jon's house this afternoon. The weather literally has been perfect for it and we've really loved just being able to make the most of our weekend together by slapping on a few chicken and lamb skewers onto the BBQ and filling up the cooler with Kopparberg Mixed Fruits Cider, lovely jubbly.

In all honesty it was even to hot today for these cut off denim shorts and this urban outfitters top but I couldn't bring myself to bare my milky white skin in a bikini top so I opted for popping in and out of the shade! Teamed up with my new topshop studded suede boots, which I have taken a strong fancy too and refuse to stop strutting up an down the patio like a loon, I find this is a great outfit to make a quick and easy transition to night out down the pub or cinema. Just add a leather jacket, opt for a darker red lip and some tights and voila! you're ready to go.

Hopefully the sunshine continues but I have heard rumours of heavy rain fall drawing in nearer the end of the weekend, boo! My boyfriend also told me to add that he thinks I look very confused in the second photo, as if I'm just staring and smiling but am not sure why. That's the most philosophical (probably, wrong word choice!) he's been in a while, he's such an oddball. I'm in fact just pulling off cliché fashion blogger poses, the standard leg cross, intense stare, look to the ground and smile at the grass like a loon, you know what I'm on about... 

What have you been up to this weekend?
