Big Chill

A very chilled out week end with lovely friends and lots of rain.

Needless to say, we spent our time walking around London with umbrellas. Had fun riding empty(ish) Metro, eating lots of good food and visiting Vintage Fairs. Oh! And art galleries, how could I forget. 


This would have been all much better if not for that Vodka and G&T’s, but hey… I can’t complain. (apparently!)

Converse replaced the glamorous heels. Ah, to hell with trying to stay glamorous in the rain! We'd rather look comfy and cool.

My gorgeous friend listening patiently to some nasty work stories. It made quite a portrait, don't you think?

Who doesn't love a good debate?! I found myself arguing about Damien Hirst quite a lot this week end.

And laughs. We had laughs.

Clothes recycling initiative. This amount of clothing is equivalent to what gets thrown into the landfill every 5 minutes.  It is pretty disturbing, when it is so visually obvious. If you have a minute to spare, you can read about it here.

I was very happy to find this baby of a basket in one of the Vintage shops in Brick Lane. I am genuinely fond of obsessed with them.

Some of the all time - everyone favourite foods were flowing. We moaned and groaned but managed to walk off (otherwise wash it down with poison) most of it.

This mind-blowing seafood risotto is from here.

And then it was time for Cocktails, G&T's, Beers and Vodkas ….

And it all gets blurry from here onwards.

Feed my Soul

Do you know the feeling, when just after rain, the sun has come out... and everything smells so fresh, crisp and new? It was the smell of last Sunday afternoon in London town.

Spring has clearly sprung and it was just warm enough to be out with a jacket, but every now and then when the wind caught my skin it felt slightly cool but so brand-new.

I could not possibly resist, but take my camera out for a play. Didn't bother with make up, only slammed some oversized sunnies on and was OUT.

A girly and unashamed lack of resistance to the pretty presence of spring.

The raindrops still laying around, almost tempting you to drink them. If only I was Thumbelina.

Smooched a cute Citroen...

The silence, sun, fresh air and beautiful spring was my food for soul. Oh indulge, why don't you!

And talking about food. Oh hello.

Food, Marvellous Food. I'm begging you for mercy!

Picnic

If  you live in London, you will understand what I mean when I say that this w/e was the 'Spring Season Opening'. Everyone went out and did something outdoorsy, including me.

My first picnic with BBQ in the park! Like a little kid I was just too excited.

We gorged on burgers and sausages (if you have been following me, you will know what a massive meat eater I am!) like we have never eaten before and then sipped cold pimms while lying and looking at the sky listening to a live band. Do you know any better ways of spending Sunday afternoon? I don't. Simple pleasures in life for me are most valuable.

This is what I wore;

Tee - River Island
Shorts - New Look
Leggings - H&M
Jacket - New Look
'Bag' - Vintage (Bought it in a car-boot sale last year. Still one of my best buys so far.)
Sunnies - H&M

 I was too hungry to wait for meat to cook, so I started with Cheese roll.

Don't get twisted, I personally ONLY drunk pimms.

Once again, I couldn't resist. Burgers! As you might know, I am a total fan.

Mason Jar obsession

A pile of meat! *heart*

The gorgeous sky

After so much food we played a little frisbee to burn off those burgers.

What did you get up to this week end?
