Chanel Suit, Evenings, Friends, Holiday, Packing, Photos, Work

….that is seriously the question I am asking myself again and again this evening! I am currently packing for Italy as I always take forever packing, total girly-girl thing to do, but hey, my boyfriend jeans make up for it right?! Even if it doesn’t I will justify it in that way. Anyway. Moving on. So today at work I found myself less busy than usual and I had finished all my work early so I decided to be cheeky and sneak out. (I also needed to get to the tailor’s as I am having a Chanel Suit tailored, I L.O.V.E it, will show you as soon as it’s done!) So I pack my things and manage to escape all the way to the elavators. Guess who comes out of the elevator that I am standing in front of….drumroll pleasahhhhh….my boss! O.H J.O.Y! Thankfully, he just smiled at me secretly thinking “cheeky bitch”, but oh well! It all worked well until I got to the elevator. Note to self. Next time you want to sneak out: use stairs!

…..and this is what my suitcase looks like so far. Hopefully there will be some further improvement over the weekend. At least it’s a start. Haven’t even began with the most difficult part yet: Shoes! I will potentially persuade my boyfriend to bring a bigger bag so that I can have more space. He will think I’m silly, but he already does, so, no matter! Anyways. Now I’m going to head back to watching friends. Is it sad that I literally love spending my evenings in bed, alone, with a cup of tea watching friends?! I don’t care. I enjoy it! Have a great evening guys and know that you’re not sad if you, like me, lie in bed watching friends!

Good morning! Soooo, I’m feeling a bit broke today. I decided to go all crazymama yesterday (I blame it on the Monday Syndrome) and order 24 items from ASOS. As if 5 or 6 wasn’t enough (it never is!). For those of you who don’t know me very well I have always been like that, if I am going to do something I go all in, otherwise, what’s the point right? Probably shoudln’t keep that perspective when it comes to spending money, but oh well! Soon I’ll be in mountains anyway where there are no shops and no internet! A total money saver! I’m currently having my favourite breakfast in the universe – fresh strawberries and yoghurt! Enjoy your day everyone!

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!

Good morning everyone! My dear colleagues Kate & Adam have done it again! They continue to crave sweets for these photoshoots. Shall I continue to give? Anyhow. I have some exciting news for you! In a week and a bit I am going to New York! My dad and I are going to run the NYC half marathon as well as parade the city, go to nice restaurants and do whatever else New Yorkers tend to do! I am very excited! I am also going shopping (obviously visiting Saks Fifth Avenue), however, I would also love to do some vintage shopping whilst I’m there. I know I will visit Centry 21, however, if you know of any other good boutiques please do tell! My evening will be spent preparing for the streets of New York with Sex and the City! Have a lovely evening!

For me, one of the worst things about working life is the dull colours you have wear in the office. What can I say?! Blues, Blacks, Greys simply doesn’t do it for me as I love being creative and colourful with my clothing style! However, for the time being I have an office job so I have no choice, but to make the best of it. Therefore I hope with my “Weekly Workwear” posts I will inspire not only myself to dress appropriate and fun for the office, but also you! I decided to start off with an outfit I would consider to be very elegant and chic to be me. The photograhpeurs are my lovely colleagues Adam and Kate. I had to buy them chocolates as an incentive to do this, however, I thought they did a pretty good job! What do you think?

Blazer by Armani Exchange, Trousers and Blouse by Zara, Heels by Christian Louboutin and Ring by Kenneth Jay Lane.

Today I am simply going to relax and catch up on my sleep. This week is looking very fully booked so today is possibly the only day I can have “me time”. I’m looking forward to an evening with myself, relaxation, films, facemasks and whatever else I decide to do! As for those of you who are wondering how the show was last night, it was brilliant! Ursula Martinez offers it all; a great laugh and nudity! Definitely a good choice for a monday night out. I wish you all a lovely day whatever you choose to do!

The Traveller….

Balance, Busy life, Life, Spare time, Work

So. Done with my first day of work! Overall. It’s been a good day. I am quite confused by everything, but I’m sure I’ll get the hang of things given some time. As far the colleagual environment goes I’m happy with it! So Work: Good! What is not so good is the lack of flat/appartment in London. At the moment I am sleeping in a double bed with my good friend Nikki. Not that I don’t like sharing beds. However, I would prefer my own place. Therefore my life is extremely busy between work and flat hunting and I apologise in the future if I am lacking in outfit photos. However, I promise they will come back soon! My life will hopefully not be this crazy for too long! I am trying to find a balance!
