HEY! :)

Long time no post. So much work for school, but I'm really enjoying it so far, however, all the work from school means not much time to post :(

Anyways, so I went to London with Melissa on Sunday for some much needed retail therapy. It was so warm as it has been for a few days now in London, it was about 29 degrees and sunny. But I was kinda hoping for autumn weather as I wanted to layer up, wear jumpers and coats as I love dressing for colder weather, but when it's this warm, it's hard to put together an outfit that doesn't consist of short shorts and a vest top which was all I wore this summer. Also, that's probably because I'm so not used to dressing for warm weather as here in England, we'll probably only get a few really hot days a year, and the rest is just cold and rainy so I've become pretty good at layering haha. So Melissa and I first went to the Monki concession in Selfridges, which I was so excited about visiting. After reading so many Scandinavian fashion blogs for quite a long time (THEY'RE JUST SO WELL DRESSED.) I had been hoping for a Monki to come to London for a long long time. After they opened a store in Hong Kong, I was really wishing that London was next. Now, although it's just a concession in Selfridges and it is quite small, it has such a good selection and it's really well laid out too. I didn't buy anything this time, but I did have my eye on a few things. Also, they've opened an online shop for the UK now, so we can shop online too! I'm just hoping that they'll open a bigger store next, and when there's a WEEKDAY here (that is if it will come over here *fingers crossed*), I'll be a happy girl. 

We also went to Forever 21, personally I don't really like the clothes there, but I absolutely love the accessories. I got a necklace (which hopefully will be featuring in a blog post soon!) and a lovely checked scarf. I didn't buy much, which is good, but I'm going to London again next Saturday and I'll be on the lookout for a pair of boots for winter as my ASOS chelsea boots are slowly dying...*cries*

Now I'm off to do some English homework now so hopefully I'll post soon!

Byeeeeeeeeee!

  13. I love your sunglasses!

    And I agree about Forever 21, the stuff sometimes lacks taste--sometimes there are some scores to find in the jewelry sections though!

    Wishing you a happy Sunday! xx
