Pink marble staircase. 2am.


Pink marble staircase. 2AM.
Hola!
Today I did have every intention of going shopping to get some warmer autumn clothes.
Never happened. Laziness took over today, which has resulted in me only being able to
make a trip to the bank, take my dog for a walk along the beach and go and buy some coconut water (it's addictive, I swear) at the local supermarket. I think that's me done for the day!
 Maybe a film later with some chocolate. Sorted.

Where's the crown?

BEST OF D&G A/W 13/14

One word. Wow.
I was really hoping someone would bring back some medieval sexiness.
Job done.

Have you seen this unicorn?

THE COOL T

Love love love this playful, fun outfit. I think pink and green together look cool- they
really compliment each other.
Things have been changing a lot for me recently. The summer is winding down here in Barcelona
and I'm getting ready for the Autumn.
I still need to hit the shops to get some warmer clothes!
The staple silk tops, ripped denim shorts and flip flops are going to quickly become inappropriate.
Summer clothing is my favourite- All the bright colours and prints. 
Still, it will be nice to feel cozy in a big, snug jumper. 
My Fiancé is moving back to London for work, so I am filling up my house with girls staying here
 over the winter.
Two have moved in so far, one from Italy, the other from Poland. They seem like good fun, think it
will be an exciting new winter ahead...

Rethink the rules

RETHINK THE RULES

Recovering from all the carnival festivities in my neighbourhood today.
Last night was fun, me & my boyfriend watched and danced from our balcony overlooking
the craziness below. We considered going down there to join in. We really did.
But when it came down to it, neither of us could be bothered. We were having more fun from above. 
I have never seen people consuming copious amounts of margaritas jump on a
moving van converted to a disco before. It was as funny as it sounds...

Space cowboy

SPACE COWBOY

Switching it up a bit with a space cowboy outfit.
Because why not? 
Most girl are beginning to dress very 'samey samey.' It is easy and accepted with the growth of 
the common high streets stores pumping out many similar items.
I'm not knocking them, as they have lots of great stuff, it's just people putting things together 
in such a similar fashion. It looks boring and it's not you.
Challenge yourself today and mix things up a bit.
Choosing items from different periods e.g 90's dress, 20's headband, 60's shoes I think makes
for a much more interesting look. Wear what you feel comfortable in and what you think looks
cool. It doesn't matter if it's in 'fashion' or not. It really doesn't.

Lazy Sundays

Lazy Sundays


| Dress - Topshop | Floral scarf - Aeropostale | Heels - Christian Louboutin |

I love this Topshop dress, it's so easy to wear and mix and match with different things.
I choose to style it with these gorgeous shoes and pretty floral scarf, which would be perfect for the
near ending of summer...
Where is the summer going? Where has 2013 gone actually?
I know they say "time goes faster as you get older", "blink and you'll be 40..." and so on
but come onnnn!? Is it just me???

Recently in Barcelona the temperature has really dropped, which quickly reminded me 
of England. 
When I left England I was very excited at the thought of leaving - like anywhere when you stay for too long. After moving around the country and then finally to London, I felt like my time in England was coming to an end. 
 But as the saying goes, "You don't know what you had, until it's gone." 
Today, I have suddenly realised how I actually miss that freshness in the air, the magical misty 
mornings, the greenery, forests, lush gardens, the rain (yes, the rain) and randomly, the supermarkets. 
What I would do for a Waitrose or M&S ready meal right now... Anyone who doesn't
come from England, youtube a Marks & Spencer food advert and you'll understand. The other day someone told me that British food has a bad reputation? I think they have been going to the wrong places haha!
Anyways, nostalgia over. 
Here is a super cool outfit which would be perfectly suited to a lunch in a beautiful garden restaurant 
(as I was imagining!)

Today I am going to attempt to do as little as humanly possible.
I will dedicate today to my unmade bed, delicious food and maybe a breezy ride on the back of a motorbike.
Sundays are my favourite day of the week...
