A Most Wonderful Saturday



I am so happy. About to go to bed after a MOST wonderful Saturday that I have had in months. My dear dear dear friend Pernilla from my home town in Sweden is here to visit me:))). We started with the market on Portobello Road (where by the way I thought something special was going on because of the millions of people around us but realized later that this was a normal Saturday hahaha). Now I have a new stunning dress & 2 very cool sunglasses additions to my "little" closet to be ironic. After Portobello/ Notting Hill we took the bus to Mayfair where we had an errand at Dover Street Market and then we walked over to a store Pernilla needed to go to in Covent Garden. We also managed to go to 2 pubs. Then off we were back home to Dulwich. We had dinner at you know my fave place in the world...:))) Franklins. It was/ has been perfect.

Deadly Tired so Good Night!

Proper Diary tomorrow or Monday.

A Lovely Lovely Monday with a Jenny & Sophie

So far my day has been brilliant. Took a walk through Dulwich Woods, packed all the samples for my shoot today, my lovely Jenny came to help and we took the bus to the studio. The adorable Sophie of Select had already arrived:) I shot & styled 11 looks. Now I am back in Dulwich, I have unpacked and sorted all samples to be returned tomorrow and have finally arrived at my fave place, Franklins and to create a tiny blog post. Now I am to make my daily collage (yes I have created one each day since Valentine's day now, I am so good). 

Thank you JENNY:))) For the best Assistant Stylist there is. And thank you Susannah of Select.

Have an Adorable Monday.

Today I Am A Pastel Adoring Flower

I just burst out wonderfully this morning:))

“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine.” 

- William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream 

Today's Outfit:

Prada belt
Zara skirt
Antique cross

And I have Amazing designers for my shoot.
