UH OH!

OH NO! I have been neglecting the blog recently and am behind on my photo challenges! Well just to keep people update I am still busy planning some ideas for my own photography. I did do a fun little shoot with my friend around a month ago.

You can check more of this series on my website:

I have recently had some photos of myself taken as well sporting a pencil skirt for a change and I will say I do look good it in!

Outfit: 

Dolores White Top (Collectif)

Pencil Skirt (Collectif)

Shoes (Agnes and Norman)

I have been out socializing and making some new friends, having picnics in the sunshine on Primrose Hill, building lego robots, enjoying blue cocktails and having some chin chin ice-cream!  And I have been forgetting to blog about it all! My life is now longer resolved around being a barista anymore due to all the fun things I have been doing and can not wait to share with everyone!

 I have been thinking of some ideas for the blog as well. I intentionally wanted to be more personal blog, a diary you could say, but I would like to try and make it more a lifestyle blog. Stuff to do with me and the goings on of my life, as well as some weekly recurrences (hopefully picking up on the photo challenge stuff) and maybe even the odd outfit pictures with a couple other bits and bobs.
The blog at the moment is still currently a working progress.

More is definitely to come soon!

Have fun everyone 

Trip to the V&A

On my day of last week and with lack of money I decided to go to the V&A. I didn't go see the current exhibition 'Savage Beauty' by Alexander McQueen as I am not really a fashionista person I love my vintage 50s Rock 'n' Roll!

I had a little wander around as it has been ages since I have visited. Well I went in October but that day was just for Horst exhibition they had on. I did not realise they actually had a little exhibition of fashion through the decades in which I came across a coral Christian Dior dress and some lovely 18th Century fabric. (Can you spot me photobombing my own pictures?)

While I was there I did have a little bite to eat in their cafe their. They have a wide variety of food from simple cream tea to hot meals. I had a falafal wrap (I have been into my mezze food a lot recently) which was very yummy with my chickpea salad and homemade lemonade. I didn't realise until before I was leaving for the exit, that there was a free exhibition happening called 'What is Luxury?' This exhibition was very interesting each item dedicated towards a single word. My favourite has to be the 'Fragile Future Concrete Chandelier' by Studio Drift. Dandelion seed heads were harvested before opening into ‘clocks’ and individually applied to LED lights on a metal frame around each light hanging like a chandelier. A item of natural vs man-made (reminds me of a old GCSE product title) This exhibition is a definite must see its free as well and will end 27th September.

After my visit I did pop to South Kensington and picked myself up a bubble tea. I love them and had yet to have one since moving to London! I had my usual Lycee with tapioca pearls. A definite must try.

Pedicure time!

 I am no longer a pedicure Virgin!  After putting so much pressure on my feet because of my job and the fact I walk a lot I thought it would be time to treat me and my feet to a much needed pedicure with a foot massage.

Since moving to London I don't really know of many good beauty salons or have had any recommendations from anyone. Just before Christmas a new salon opened in Fulham Broadway called Images, so thought I would give it a go.

It set with tonal colours of golds and browns and has a calm relaxing atmosphere. The lady who did my feet was lovely as well. We had a little chat while finding out I have very very ticklish feet!

My feet look tanned but just a photo effect

The colour for my nails I ended up chosing was a mint green colour very similar to the cardigan I brought recently. If I am correct the nail polish is from OPI recently new collection. The one I decided to use is called that's hula-rious. Defiently in this season.

This pedicure was lovely and was defiantly worth it. U do highly recommend Images in fulham broadway fo any of my friends. I might have to start treating me and my toes to this once a month.
