Walking on the wild side

On Friday we went to London Zoo!  At first I was apprehensive but as soon as I saw the first animal - a giraffe I was in love! The highlight has got to be being in the enclosure with the monkeys running around our feet and jumping over us.  Here's a bunch of photos that Tom took whilst I awwwwwww'd at everything.

"Look Tom!  The Llama has leg warmers!"

Romance in St. Pancras

As we were waiting for the train last night, we spotted a wedding reception in one of the bars under the huge clock. The bride looked so happy and the atmosphere was so romantic and not at all like a train station! Ahh <3

Brunch on Tottenham Court Road

Hello from a lovely little cafe called Cilantro! It's our last day in London before home tonight and I just wanted to update you on our little adventure! Yesterday we went to London Zoo and saw some awesome animals (the monkeys were my favourite) and then we got one of Boris's bikes and rode through Regents Park to the tube station. It was SO FUN! Today we're going shopping the London way - Oxford Street and Neal Street. TO SELFRIDGES!

London: Day 3 in pictures (London Fashion Weekend)

Sorry for the lateness of this post, I have no excuses!

On Friday 23rd September I woke up smiling - it was finally London Fashion Weekend.  After packing my case and checkout of the hotel, I headed for embankment and sat in Embankment gardens just off Strand as I waiting for the 11am opening at Somerset House.

I recreated my favourite nails



As soon as I entered Somerset House I got lost so I headed for one of the basement floors to shop!

Somerset House is all kinds of beautiful

My first sample sale at LFWend was the Juicy Couture one (bag pricelist further down).  The prices were insanely cheap and there were HUNDREDS of bags, dresses, tracksuits, shirts and shoes.  As well as Juicy Couture shoes, there were a few Michael Kors ones for £35

Everything else is hazy from when I hit that sale.  Everything in Somerset house was on sale at Sample Sale prices which means 50%-75% off.  I'm not even kidding.  I managed to get a cute bag for £18 down from £35, 2 mens DKNY scarves (DKNY shirst for men and women were £15 and were this season) and some Anna Lou of London jewellery.  My shoulders hurt so much because I was carrying my Zatchel, show bag with Diet Coke bottles in and all of my shopping.

Half way around LFWend

It was then time for the catwalk show and I was SO excited.  Grace Woodward, stylist and BINTM judge) was a really cool host and the show was really fun with ready-to-wear and a few avant garde looks.  As you can see from the photos, the seating was tired so I could see everything perfectly.  Well worth paying more for!

After the catwalk it was time to leave my fashion paradise.  I hailed a cab (for the first time!) and whizzed to Kensington and to St.Pancras for my train.

Light reading..

My textbooks have finally arrived! I had a slight bout of depression when I remembered the amount of shoes I could have bought instead but otherwise I'm feeling ok. No idea which to start reading first though! Wish me luck..
