LFW SS15 DAY THREE - THE OUTFIT

0 LOVELY COMMENTS
 
Sunday at London fashion week is a lot more chilled and lots less going on unlike Friday which was so crazy! I got the train to London later than Friday and Saturday because I was starting to feel the effects of fashion week, so tired and achey muscles. Not really looking forward to Tuesday if this os how I feel on day three. Anyway I soldiered on and got into London around 1.30pm and went straight to Regent St because I wanted to go to & other stories because I love their stuff. 

I bought makeup which I can't wait to wear and the beautiful pink beanie I'm wearing in the snaps above that Emily from beautybyemily.co.uk took for me. I put on my H&M long shirt but I was so cold putting my makeup on this morning so I threw the pale jumper over the top and I really like the slouchy chic look. 

Not forgetting my beautiful Mulberry Bayswater, the perfect bag for an all grey outfit..

LFW SS15 DAY TWO - THE DINNER

0 LOVELY COMMENTS
 
After a second day of fashion week madness I left Freemasons Hall to head towards Oxford Street because I knew there was a restuarant that I wanted to visit inside however I couldn't for the life of me remember the name. I scoured the food court and was unsucessful in my findings and realised there were more restuarants on other floors.
I travelled up the escalator two flights and there it was, Aubaine. I walked all the way through the beautiful ladies clothing and through the shoe room. I may have stopped because a glistening Topshop number ahem *caught my eye*. I didn't buy them I promise, I'm also not wearing them to fashion week because they are the perfect shoe for my outfit (this is going to end in tears). 
I finally made it, such a lovely atmosphere and decor, I didn't feel silly eating there by myself at all quite the opposite, chic and sophisticated. My meal was delicious and the waiter kindly put my phone on charge for my as I was worried about having 9% battery for my journey home.
The restaurant wasn't empty whilst I was in there, it was 9pm when I left and Selfridges was closing so most customers had paid and left by the time I got the bill.
After not eating properly for two days I was having meat cravings, I was thinking about steak but I do love lamb so I went with the lamb, carrot puree, pea puree, red wine jus and baby gem. It was delicious and the perfect size for me! I hate big dinners, I like having three courses so having smaller portions means I can enjoy all three! 
What a beautiful restuarant, I can't wait to come back and maybe next time I'll bring some friends however don't let anyone near your macaroon so delicious, the vanilla one I had was tasty.

The Scrummiest little macaron, the filling was so tasty, I wish they had a raspberry one I would have loved that!

LFW SS15 DAY TWO - THE EVENT

0 LOVELY COMMENTS
 

I was quite looking forward to the Aspinal of London event at House of Fraser on Oxford Street because one of my favourite bloggers Ella Gregory was going to be there talking with Laura Jackson about style. I had seen the owl balloons and polar bear on Twitter too! 

I didn't know that we would recieve the most beautiful heart shaped key ring and I was honestly really surprised when I carefully slid it out of it's beautiful box and packaging. I then found out we could get them engraved so I got my initials on mine in gold, how pretty is it! 


I loved the Aspinal event and I also met up with Lucy from Foodie Force who reads my blog. We decided to go for lunch because I was starving, Lucy is a fellow foodie so we went to Paul. I had a tomoato and Mozarella (Yes I have mozzerella issues) sandwich on a gorgeous olive bread, yummies! Was a teeny bit tough though, got it stuck in my teeth (so attractive) haha. Washed down with delicious fresh lemonade perfect. 

Ooh dining Al Fresco in London in September! Who would have thought..

LFW SS15 DAY TWO - THE OUTFIT

So after my failed attempt at taking outfit pictures yesterday because my day was crazy! Today was a success! I didn't originally intend to wear my boots however after the silly decision of wearing pointed spikey stilettos yesterday I stayed away from shoes that would hurt and went with my faithful slouchy Zara boots which have been like clouds today so comfy!

I started off the morning (running late) for the Aspinal of London event in House of Fraser where Ella Gregory from Coco's Teaparty and Laura Jackson were doing a style chat. We were also given Aspinal goodie bags in which there was a gorgeous red heart keyring inside which you could get embroidered if you so wished but before I tell you the whole story, I will be posting that shortly after this one. 

I was really happy with my outfit today because it kept me cool and comfortable however I'm not used to wearing skirts at all, can't be dealing with pulling it down so I don't flash at the poor passers by! 

The lovely Lucy from bonjourluce.com took these snaps for me

FUSION FESTIVAL

0 LOVELY COMMENTS
 









So it is finally time to say goodbye to summer and I said farewell to mine with the first festival of the season for me. I didn't plan to go to any for the first year in a long while actually, not sure why I just didn't decide to go to one until Fusion Festival. 

I love singing along to Capital in the car in the morning when Dan and Katy are on, who I think are hilarious. When I knew Jessie J was going to be there I just had to go. Jessie J is amazing live, if you get the chance to see her do it! Her vocals are on another level. 

I really loved Fusion, it was chilled and laid back, family friendly, no drugs and no throwing of beer (ahem or not beer). This pleased me and we sat on the hill chilled out ate food drank water (I was driving) and listened to the music! What a way to spend the last day of summer, perfect! 

I hope you enjoyed seeing the snaps of my day, I will be editing my VLOG tonight too!
