This week has been lovely so far, but unfortunately I have not been in the photo mood so sorry for these rubbish ones.
One thing you should go and do right now, if you haven't already, is go to Brick Lane in London and point yourself in the direction of Rokit, Beyond Retro and all the other wonderful little vintage shops down Brick Lane. Just wondering through them, looking at all the cute shoes and crazy dresses is lovely. I was pretty pleased, as I managed to find myself one of those bags which I just know will now never leave my side; a pair of sunglasses which were exactly the kind I searched for for the whole of last summer; and a really cute red bow for my hair - it was just in a random box in Beyond Retro - so sweet! there was also a cat. A real life, living breathing cat. I must say I was a little scared at first.
To continue (is it just me that always says this with a french accent?) my little shopping spree, me and the lovely Beth and Hannah popped on down to OxfdStrt. H&M was just disappointing. Topshop, however, was not. It's overpriced. It's not great quality. But I love it. I've had my eye on this skater type dress since, oh about January now? And it was in the 'Buy it now or regret it later' section, so I just did it. It's slightly see through, but nothing a white bra and avoiding too many bright lights can't handle. I also bagged some good ol' high waisted shorts, which will always be essential for summer me thinkles.
So, oui! Shopping after you haven't in ages is just great. Today I had my second caramel blended coffee from Starbuckies today, which means I'm in the running to beat my total last year of about 3000.
I'm going to see Dear John tomorrow - I'm stupidly excited. Channing Tatum + Amanda Seyfried + rain kisses = The Notebook round 2.
Right now, I'm enjoying a bit of Frank Turner (I've just fallen in love with 'Substitute'). Also, The Futureheads and Mystery Jets are now officially on the Reading line up - thank you festival Gods, THANK YOU.
