the suitcase challenge day 3 - hoi an

Lula & Rose crochet fringe top, ASOS bikini, Minkpink x Nastygal denim shorts, Lovisa necklace; Tony Bianco sunnies

Sun, sand and the sea - this little town of Hoi An is an unexpected mix of new and old, with numerous resorts dotting its beachfront while its World Heritage-listed ancient town still retaining much of their old, traditional cultures. So thankful there was amazing sunshine today (it's been raining all other days) that was perfect for this delicate crochet top to come out and play.

In the quaint little town food stalls with their mini-sized furniture are all over the streets and both children and the elderly squat roadside selling paper lanterns - which are released into the river and make quite a pretty sight at night. Everything from pancakes to crepes to spring rolls is bundled in yet another layer of rice paper before eating, and I might have just found my favourite Banh Mi stand!
