Heeey guys! How are you? I’m back in business in Britain. Just came back from a long run around Hyde Park and it feels so good to use my body for something useful again. It’s so silent and beautiful there during the evenings, next time you come visiting London in the summer you must have “going for an evening walk in hyde park” on your to do list! Promise me!

{Picture from last weekend}

Anyways. I’m much looking forward to this week….tomorrow is the Cambridge ball which I have the P.E.R.F.E.C.T dress for and I’m so excited to see what you think! And this weekend I’m having visitors yet again, this time it’s from my aunt and uncle! They always bring hilariousness with them so this will call for another GREAT weekend! Have a good week everybody!

As I said earlier had an amazing weekend (as always!). After I went out on Friday I felt raaaather rough. As you do! However, it did improve when we went over to one of our mates houses to a cooked brunch with blueberry pancakes for dessert! L.O.V.E.L.Y! Then we spent the rest of the day walking around and ended up in Regent’s Park. In the evening I got takeaway Chinese from my favorite place Pearl Liang with my boyfriend. We watched some of the Eurovision song contest, not a lot, got easily bored and decided to watch 21 Jump Street instead. That was hilarious! Recommended! On Sunday Morning I ran the Race For Life 5 K in Hyde Park with one of my friends from work. Here are some snaps from the race….

After the run I went home, had a quick shower and went out again! Spent the rest of the day in the park! I’ll show you those photos later! If you live in London I would definitely recommend the race for life! Even if you don’t take it seriously it’s a lot of fun! Lots of love from me on this Monday! Now I’m going to lie down. And continue to lie until I feel refreshed!

Good Morning! Sun is up! As it has been E.V.E.R.Y single day this week! YEEYY!! And on top of that, now the weekend is here so that we can enjoy the lovely weather properly! Finally! Tomorrow and Sunday all I am going to do (except when I’m running Race For Life) is to lie in Regent’s Park and sunbathe! I have recently become a huge fan of that Park in comparison to Hyde Park. I’m sure I will go back to loving Hyde Park later as I used to before! Tonight I am dressing up and going out! I am superexcited! E.N.J.O.Y!

Ottolenghi-licious

Belgravia, Chicken, Christian Louboutin, Hyde Park, Islington, Kensington, Lunch, Merengue, Motcomb Street, Notting Hill, Ottolenghi, Salad

Ottolenghi was the gorgeous lunch place I went to on Sunday after parading around Hyde Park. I went to the Belgravia chain, however, they do have three others located in Kensigton, Notting Hill and Islington. I had the chicken main with roasted potatoes, squash and mixed beans as salads. The food and the atmosphere is absolutely lovely! Then I had the passion fruit merengue tart for dessert (on the left above) which was very sweet and delicious! I recommend this place greatly, not only for the food, but also because at the end of the street where this branch is located (Motcomb street) there is a Christian Louboutin shop! A lunch simply does not get better than that!

What do you do in London on a lazy sunday when the spring sun is shining? You go to Hyde Park! At least that’s what I do. It is so beautiful in the spring. Everything is coming to life again and it is the season of hope and joy. After walking around for a bit, we sat down at Lido Cafe by the Serpentine Lake and enjoyed the view over a Mocha and a piece of fudge cake. Then we headed for the shops as I wanted to buy some homeware for my new cosy room. I bought…..drumroll please…….nothing! Very unlike me! The only thing I truly wanted was clothing hangers, unfortunately I am just as choosy when it comes to that as I am with everything else in life! However, I did later on in Waitrose buy a flower! I love flowers, however, I have a track record for letting everything alive around me simply wither down and die. Not good. In an attempt to break this vicious circle I will prove my boyfriend (and everyone else) wrong! I will keep it alive! I will keep you posted!
