It's friday today and so technically the last day of half term (depends how you see it) This mean that on Sunday I will need to repaint my nails from a mushroom brown to a Mannequin pink :( I like my mushroom brown.
So on Wednesday I went to London. We were intending to go to see some culture (The water painting exhibition in Tate Britain) as well as shop but Selfridges and Liberty's took longer than intended. For the first time I went into Fenwick, t'was nice but a little quite although their perfume&candle section ^_^ and their lingerie sale was very good (but I didn't get anything)
For lunch we went into Aubaine which is a Contemporary French bistro in the shoe gallery of Selfridges and I finally ate my first macaron FINALLY!! It was red and huge and yummy!!
Yesterday I stayed at home did homework, watched love actually for the first time (alright, in the middle for me) then rode Finn for the first time in FIVE months!! T'was only a walk but I've missed it so very much!! Today shall follow the same routine hopefully.
There are some many people I've not seen this half term whom I NEED to see!!
Ciao ;)

Aahhh it's half term, that means lie-ins and not having to learn new confusing things for a week ^_^ although the homework is a despressant I'm not that bothered :]
This morning (if we ever leave) I should be going for a snoop around Marlborough and then doing a geography question in exam conditions for some practice.
Then tomorrow I should be going to London for a look in Libertys and I'm not sure what else, maybe going to a tate gallery, and then having tea mit father who is working away during the weeks.
I think my mother finally got off the phone,
Ciao ;)

I should be struck upon the face many a time for severly neglecting my little blog.
Currently listening to drake bell- found a way eating linguine (which was supposed to be prawn but mother bought crab by accident!)
looking for CGP revision guide for my exams because it's part of my deal mit mutter and myself to TRY a great deal harder so I might get SOME ok grades. But I've realised I know no exam boards I am learning from!!
Must pronounce muchos love for Fifi Lapin who always looks lovely and helps rest my momentarily frazzled Brain! AND my current book by Luella I do love it lots ^_^
song on right now David Bowie - Fashion <3 this song, I can't help get up and dance like the goon I am.
Drake Bell - Found a way (Album cover) Fifi's valentine outfit
David Bowie - Fashion (Album Cover) Le Book ^_^
So much has happened but this is not the right time to catch up!!
Ciao ;)

Yesterday was meine Mutters birthday, and today my uncle and his wife (so I guess my aunt) came down to stay. The original plan was to go to Jamie Olivers Italian restaurant but then my mum wanted to go to see the Kings speech but before hand eat at pizza express.
However Pizza Express was fully booked so we went to one of my personal favourites, a lovely little restaurant named The Bistro, and ended up not going to the film, driving home and playing Zooloreto.
Tis been and 'ight week, I discovered a lovely hand balm by Rituals, Ginkgo's Secret, my hands are silky smooth.
The slight downside to the week is I have to remember a dressage test for tomorrow.... yeaahh I don't remember it all I remember is to walk in and then do a 20m circle (I think left) and then a 10m circle at D (where is D!!?)
Sooo yeah,
Ciao ;)

JW 2011 Spring Review
I waited a while to do this or any kind of review so if shops were holding some items back they'd have plenty of time to do so and I could then review.
So today I'm going to do my version of a review of this years spring 2011 by Jack Wills, which include my favourites.
So this year is based on sailing and the sea, so expect more fishermen macs and gondola/Navymen (whichever you see them as) stripes. The Video and handbook shoot consists of the JW crew being regulars at a deserted beach and light house dancing/running and playing pranks on each other. As the film/pictures progress so does the day and the night draws in and a bonfire is set out whereupon the crew strip and run into the sea in their undies. An often reccurence is people kissing (and more) portraying such young love and illuminating the essence of spring (although they do it very visually and close to sexual scenes and nudity)
The women special heritage garments this year are the welburn blazer 'The most feminine cut in tailored blazers for a beautifully smooth and shaped silhouette.' Was made in collaboration with Fox Brothers & Co for the best wool and at the price of £269 I sure hope so!
Next is the Ryhill stripe blazer which 'introduces a sexy silhouette to the classic and historically British boating blazer.' The wool from this one was made by Moon who specialize in luxury wool since 1837, must admit here I'm not the hugest fan of this one.
The next few folloing are the ones they wrote about in the handbook. They have done some fishermen macs (I have/will always love yellow fishermen macs) named the Whitsone. However much I love yellow fishermen macs I could probs find one that isn't £129.
Next up an Aran knitted cardigan named the Bobbington. It's of a cream colour and brown buttons which remind me of a VERY similar topshop cardigan. I rather like it but again I wouldn't spend £129 on it when the topshop one was about £39.
Now we have the Butterton and Ellenthorpe dresses. The Butterton is 'The cutest dress for spring.' and is red and white pinstriped, boned and lined to maintain shape. With the addition of pockets it is a good choice for any day or night event. The Ellenthorpe is also a strapless dress with a full skirt and ideal for a party dress. It's print desgin is from the Liberty of London archives ( rather loving the print if I'm honest)
We move onto the mens items which JW wrote about. The Waterstock jacket comes in Navy and Sand and is inspired my vintage sailor smocks 'The Union Jack appliqué badge and sailing insignia lend to the nautical design as does the white lining and woven drawstring cords.'
Then there is the Fishermead fair Isle crew neck jumper 'The Fishermead is a warm woolly wonder inspired by the jumpers originally worn by sailors and fishermen under their pea coats when out at sea.' I'm jealous I actually want this but not for £129.
The Coxheath knitted rugby is a new take for JW a.k.a. new texture (by that I mean wool things like that)
There are also t-shirts and other things but I'm too lazy to write about them.
Now my favourites:
The fishermens mac.
I'm loving the Ditton Cardie but too pricey for my liking
The Blue and White Elworth t-shirt I actually love this!! On my sale steal methinks!!
Uber loving these Skinny Chinos, I'm thinking there might be a primark version though!
The Dalewood Book bag & the Fardon Shopper. although I don't like the other side of the Dalewood.
Oh and of course the homewears :L
The Bickley cushion... Look at it I love this print!!
From the bracelets I like the Wrayton 'Birds of a feather flock together' and practically all the Walmgates.
The Widley mug again because of the floral print!!
So in all as usual I think it's a nice collection very fresh and wholesome but the price is too much as the norm.
Ciao ;)
