GOOOOD MORNING! Or afternoon or whatever! GOD! I have ben superduperbusy! Since we last spoke I have ended my placement with IMS Health, had several nights out, packed and now I’m in Norway for a week! A week! I mean seriously?! I haven’t seen my friends and everybody since forever, but it’s all the time I have. So ever since I came back yesterday I have been seeing friends & family non stop! It’s going to be like this until next wednesday when I go to London yet again to see the Proms and some other things. Then I will return to Norway again and then on the 24th of August I’m leaving for Tokyo! Gosh! Busy times! Anyways. I’m in a rush now, I have a friend coming over and I’m supposed to cook for her. Haven’t started yet! Anyways. These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago when the weather was impeccable in London. I hope you understand my lack of blogging! Have a lovely wednesday everything and don’t forget to watch the Olympics! Team GB is owning at the moment!

Good afternoon lovelies! How’s your week been so far? Good I hope. I’m just about wrapping up my placement as I’m finishing tomorrow. Ii’ll be a bit sad to leave this place after 6 months, but hey, I’m going to Tokyo in less than a month! Bejeeezus! I’m not sure if it’s really hit me just HOW much of a culture shock that is going to be. Oh well. I’m sure I’ll get used to it. Anyways. I’m wishing you soon a lovely weekend. Mine will consist of P.A.R.T.Y! Should be fun!

Boutique Profile – Atelier Mayer

I’m not sure if i have told you that I am going to the Cambridge Ball at the 19th of June, but I am! Therefore I was in desperate need of a gorgeous summer maxi dress and I found the perfect one at Atelier Mayer. Ever since, I think this has been my favorite vintage boutique in London.

Firstly, because they provide excellent service and the staff is so helpful and lovely (far, far above average of any boutique I have ever been to!). Secondly, they have a very refined selection of leather goods, shoes and dresses and I can assure you that if you, like me, buy a dress to go to a ball, nobody will have the same as you! This is my dream dress, but the price tag of £2 400 is too steep….

However, not all the dresses come with a ludicrous price tag. You may also find more reasonable one, such as mine which I bought for £330! Atelier-Mayer also has an the possibility of online shopping, however, I would not recommend this as the sizes vary very much. My dress was originally a size 10, however, their fantastic seamstress was able to tailor it to perfectly fit me!

So, whenever you are in London you should definitely pop by! While you are at it, you can have a look at The Dresser and eat at Cocomaya because it all lies on the same street. The. Perfect. Street. In. London! Have fun!

Many of you have been loving my purple Christian Dior wedges from this shoot. Therefore I thought I would share with you the boutique from which they were bought for a steal of £95. The boutique is called The Dresser and it offers a wide selection of brands including; Acne, Burberry, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Donna Karan, Gucci, Dior and many more! Its location is near Marble Arch on Porchester Place which is opposite Cocomaya. Therefore, in my opinion, the perfect day is to shop at The Dresser and then go for a chocolaty treat at Cocomaya.

For those of you who do not live in London. Don’t worry, it has a website for online shopping accessible here. What is your favourite website for online shopping? Want to share? Have a lovely day everybody!

Good afternoon! Please tell me you will go to the cinema and see This Means War tonight! Please tell me you will! I saw it yesterday and it was brilliant! I was cracking up bigtime from start til end! Highly recommended! I also had a huge bag of sweets which made the film even better! So my tip for you is to go and see This Means War with a huge bag of sweets! So thats your plans for this evening. Mine? Oh, as usual, how lovely of you to ask! Tomorrow I am going to New York (!!!), however I have not started packing yet (Silly Guro). So I’ll have to pack and plan outfits tonight! On top of that, my boyfriend is coming over to cook for me (he’s a brilliant cook!) so it should be a very good evening! Im excited! Enjoy the cinema!
