Notes from the Weekend & a Few Lovely Links 28.03.16

WHEN WE FOUND OUT that it was going to be 26°C (78.8°F ) on Saturday, we knew there was only one place to spend the day: at the beach, on the sandy shores of the sea. There were already striped cabanas and thatched umbrellas when we arrived for our picnic, and amidst the salty breezes and with sandy toes, we laughed and talked and looked forward to the coming summer days. We also visited the marina earlier that day, strolling around the docked sailboats, the sun glittering on the water as couples sat on a dockside terrace leisurely sipping glasses of white wine. On Sunday, here in Europe, the clocks moved ahead and we lost a much-needed hour of sleep, but gained an entire beautiful hour more of daylight. And in other news, if you follow along on Instagram, you will know that there has been much commotion about Facebook making changes to Instagram users’ feeds, which will now have posts sorted by algorithm, instead of in reverse chronological order. We mentioned this news recently in an instalment of Articles a few weeks ago, and if the changes are going through on Tuesday as rumoured and you would like to keep us in your feed, you can turn on notifications for @thisisglamorous / @shopthisisglamorous / @belgravecrescent. For us, the another way to deal with the situation is to spend less time on Instagram and more time here, at the place that has always been our first love. We’ll see how things go over the next few weeks, but for now, here is this week’s edition of Inspirational LINKS.
