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!
