You need me man, I don't need you
Hello! Just a quick post (slightly delayed, my photobooth wouldn't let me log in for ages). I went to London for my birthday last week, it was so amazing! I stayed overnight with my friend Holly, and we spent one day around Oxford St, and the other around Camden. I'm going to try my best to get down to London at least once every two months from now on, because I want to go to uni there, and besides, it's my favourite place! Everytime I seem to go to London it's always so hectic.. I really want to go down, and just chill out. I was a little bit worried with all of the riots and stuff, but everything was absolutely fine. Here's a few pictures of what I got upto, and what I bought (more importantly!)
After a long tiring journey all the way there, we searched for a cute cafe. There were literally Starbucks & Costa's every few metres, but I was determined to find somewhere a bit different. Lots of places were closed because we went down on my birthday which was a Sunday - and at about 11am, it was difficult to find somewhere decent. We eventually found this lovely little shabby chic cafe called Yumcha. It smelt so nice as soon as you walked in, and it was so vintagey I loved it. I got a vegetarian panini, tea and a little raspberry macaroon (which she gave me for free, wooooo). The food was really yummy and it was so nice to just find somewhere a little bit more relaxed, right in the centre of London. I can't wait to go back there!



We spent a few hours on Oxford St, spending lots of money (slightly regret now, but oh well), then went back to the hotel and got ready to go out. This was the first time I'd properly got chance to use my new camera. I looked to touristy with it around my neck haha! We got chinese in boxes and just sat for a few hours until it got dark. It was nice and warm thankfully! I also dyed my hair slightly pink.. bit unsure about it..
A few things I bought above: - H&M blazer: £24.99 - literally can't stop wearing it - H&M Tangerine jeans: £14.99 (Which I also now have in navy.. so comfy, at £14.99 too!) - Lace dress top - £28 - Camden
Really sorry to anyone thats a bit funny with feet haha, but it's so surreal to have little fish on your feet! I've wanted to have a fish pedicure in a while, just to see how it feels, and when it was £10 on Camden for 15 minutes, I could hardly say no. At first I was a little bit worried, as soon as I put my feet in they were all over! It was so strange. It tickled, but kinda felt like little bubbles all over your feet. The more I looked at them the more I laughed. It's definitely worth having a go at it though! And of course, a good Starbucks to finish the day off.
I bought a few other things too, which I'll be posting about soon. I promise, I've got the pictures already haha! It's mostly all from H&M - I literally love their A/W 11' collection, I've bought half of the stuff on the mannequins already! It's all so cheap and lovely and aaaaaah.
Also.. Anyone who has TWITTER.. let me know!
Speak to you all soon!
