Recently I went for a day trip to Manchester for my boyfriend's project and explored the Northern Quarter. It amazed me how the feel of the 90s was still prominent through the unique shops, record stores and the fashion that were people were wearing. Whilst there I stumbled across a shop called Magma (which is great if you are into design) and picked up two fashion magazines, Love and iD.
I would definitely recommend these magazines if you want to further your reading (in this case for fashion) and try something a little different from Vogue or Elle. These magazines can be hard to get hold of if you don't live in the city, but you can still look at their online sites daily :-)
The Love Magazine - £6.00 - http://www.thelovemagazine.co.uk
i-D Magazine - £6.00 - http://i-d.vice.com/en_gb/
We also found a cute restaurant called Wood, and mostly everything in there was believe it or not made from Wood! It was a cosy little restaurant with a great atmosphere and decor.
I decided to opt for something a little different whilst there called a 'Hey Poppy Sandwhich.' It consisted of Sliced Chicken Breast, Lime Mayonnaise (surprisingly lovely and refreshing!), cucumber and rocket on toasted ciabatta. All of the sandwiches came with new potatoes, a side salad with balsamic vinegar and red cabbage coleslaw - for £6.45 in total it is definitely worth it!

I can't wait to go back and visit Manchester in a few weeks and discover what else they have to offer :-)
Lots of love,
