BIG SKIRTS AND CROPPED KNITS

Wore this skirt for the first time yesterday; it was only when I got home that I realised the tag was still attached! *d'oh!*

The full shape & structure of the skirt reminded me of the big skirts at Dior this season, & I really wanted to clash the pretty pastel colours with a 1970s orange knit. I've pretty much found my (literal) comfort zone in flats & pumps recently, these grey pumps from Primark fitting the bill on so many days. I'm also tempted to take my first foray into the Allstar market, maybe a pair of red or neutral cream ones to wear with dresses into the Autumn...

We tried out the Providores & Tapa Room for brunch beforehand: Turkish eggs with yoghurt & chilli served with soda bread, & eggs on chorizo were recommended, as was the bloody mary...

Happy Bank Holiday Weekend!

KENSINGTON CREAM TEA

Vintage-themed afternoon tea at The Pelham, South Kensington this weekend. Wearing almost entirely Miss Selfridge (boyfriend-coat, neon-panelled dress, booties), we sampled the lightest powdered scones with jam & clotted cream, fingers sandwiches with the crusts cut off, citrus macaroons & chocolate cheesecake…

(PS i totally blogger-failed & whilst i packed 2 lenses, i forgot my camera battery! all these photos were taken with my reliable iPhone!)

WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS

I found these photos whilst rummaging through my dropbox uploads, the sunshine of Cartagena (top 3 pics), followed by a recent pic of Barcelona over New Years. The tinted translucent pipes belonged to the opera house on Cartagena's port, a rather magnificent looking building that enclosed a mirrored walk-through passage..

I have a ton of pics from Barca to post, more soon!
