Evening all!  A picture based post tonight, it's going to be visual for you!  I spent yesterday in London meeting with some lovely fashion Mummy bloggers.  It was so nice to catch up and relax all day with no time restraints.  A few of us (yes, me included!) branched off for only a couple of hours to hit the shops.  As I do get into London more than some I felt it only right to take up the 'tour guide' role to navigate them to the shops they needed then back to the bar!  It's late and I've set myself a new challenge to shut down and switch off by 9.30pm so excuse the slackness but I will address the ladies by name but tag in their equally fabulous blogs.

| Close up of Avril's fab Accessorize necklace, love it worn over her denim shirt | 
|  | 
| Sue 'papping' Moi! | 
|  | 
| 'The Hat' (and the coat) are Marlene's but wanted by all! | 
|  | 
| Uniqlo's very 'Cath Kidston' Tee's (but by Greengate instead) | 
|  | 
| Their great selection of scarves | 
 
|  | 
| Even more impressive was their cardi range - how many colours?! 100% cotton £19.90 | 
|  | 
| Their Orla Kiely scarves were £9.90 - an amazing price | 
|  | 
| I loved Cos's colour palette, soft pinks and greens | 
|  | 
| Cos's leather was fab and magnetic closures are always a favourite of mine | 
|  | 
| And me! I did wear a coat, Marlene might have that picture! Topshop Baxter Jeans
 Topshop Boots
 H&M Tee
 Gap cardi (£14.99 in the sale - bargain!)
 New Look necklace
 Balenciaga Handbag

Every time I see myself in a picture at the moment, it makes me want to cut my fringe back in.  So what's stopping me - the maintenance!  But the sound of me harking on about it for so long in my head is equally as annoying so this week I may just nip in to the hairdressers.......
Wish list item this week - Benefit's Fine One One highlighter.  I love the mix of colours and that you can use it on your cheeks and lips is a double bonus.  I am currently using a max powder blush but I do find that cream blushers give more of a glow.  So next time I'm near a Debenhams, my voucher is going on this little 2 in 1 gem.  £23.50.
Must dash, 9.43pm already......ho hum, tomorrow's a new day to achieve my goal!  Night all x
 
You all look fantastic! Glad you had a smashing time, and I hope to make the next one. x
ReplyDeleteLovely to meet you yesterday Rosie and all the other bloggers - it was great fun.
ReplyDeleteSecondly - arrgh. Should have guessed that someone would have papped me by the end of the day. And I was trying to keep a low profile :o)
Anna - next time - you've got to come. If you can't get there, we'll come to you!
ReplyDeleteLove it Natalie! Brings back such lovely memories of a great day. I will email u some of the pictures I have of you. Your coat was fab. Also, message me ur address. I was given a Fine One One at an event a few weeks ago. Used it once on my cheeks but it's not my cup of tea. It's like a lipstick so can be sliced for hygiene! Please accept it as a thank you for your excellent tour guiding on Saturday...loved seeing some of the shops we don't have in Belfast. Avril xx
ReplyDeleteYou need to take me to the cardi/scarf shop! Glad you all had a great time. Troodles
ReplyDeleteBe lovely to meet you Anna and Sue - you were never not going to get papped he he!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a safe trip home Avril, bet your missing your babies lots by now. Ah thank you, love my FCUK bargain coat! Wow - thank you so much, one of my New Years Resolutions was to try more make-up so I get to tick that off and save my pennies too - your a star, thank you!
Troodles - it was cardi heaven!
