filling the gap

                     

It's been a while since I did one of these posts and I'm going to be pretty busy this week so may not get a chance to post. I like posting regularly and bringing something a little more personal to my blog.

Harrods Harry Potter shop, churros at Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, Beigel and his new harness, loving St. Tropez mousse, streamlined my makeup (sorta), braved my new creepers (*) outside of the house, catch ups with my bestie, shopping feels GOOD, new MacBook case finally came, total comfort food, amazing lunch at the new Miller & Carter in Lakeside, spent some more, still loving OPI Rainbow Connection so much, where I take my outfit photos, hating my short legs 4eva, addicted to Temple Run (score after 10 minutes), salad as a main (what's wrong with me?), sneaky changing room snap, my beloved sailor coat fresh from the dry cleaners, death by Chinese food, my meow meow shirt (worn here and here) and the cutest ring packaging. My life just looks really shallow and food-oriented now. Welp.

On a separate I was wondering if people would like to me integrate my graphic design work into this blog or maybe show it as more of a side thing. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do yet, as I have to blog for the self promotion part of my course. May just embed the other blog into this one somehow, so undecided!

  1. I love Chinese food too much! The ring packaging is so cute, and such an interesting design :) where is your sailor coat from? I've been searching for a timeless winter coat for too long now haha http://simplesophiecn.blogspot.com/ ox

    1. It's from Topshop years ago, but I ended up getting it from iOffer last year as I wanted one so badly! I don't think it's even real Topshop but I love it! Search 'hello captain coat'

  5. Bit of a strange question but what tripod is that? It's been way too long since my photography course and I would rather buy something with word of mouth recommendation than end up getting a rubbish one and smashing my camera! Absolutely love your blog by the way! So fabulous! xx
