We love this city

So me and my boyfriend had the best time in London we had to go back for a second trip, just over 2 weeks later.  We adore this city, we visited the V&A this time, probably the most beautiful building I've ever stepped foot in in my Topshop shoes

I died over the 80s fashion section, worshiping a piece of Coco's finest, a black sequin embellished ensemble...

 Devine isn't it. As was the new Chanel shop 

We went in and on my god my breath almost stopped as we browsed and looked at treats, gorgeous items looked at a couple of purses but had already fell in love with an Alexander Wang in Liberty's which later the love of my life treated me to.  I'm one lucky lady and he is just the most amazing person.

Gorgeous isn't it. The leather is beyond, it smells incredible and looks insane I keep wanting to buy things so I can get my purse out.  It's the nicest purse I've ever owned and I have to say Alexander Wang you are a god.

Harrods once again was delightful, so many culinary treats for us to browse and enjoy, it has been 5 days and Ben is still savouring every mouthful of fudge, I wish I had disobeyed him and bought him the mint chocolate one as well as strawberries and cream. Me, I'm not a fudge fan, it's the cakes that get me....

We also visited Tower Bridge this time, note the treat of a man in the tan jacket in our not so great tourist photo

Totally smitten.

Louis Vuitton know how to do a window display and this was beyond, loved the gold dinosaur skeletons, I felt like I away back at the Natural History Museum.  We did visit the British Museum this time too to see the Egyptian section, we saw the Rosetta Stone, Mummies and hieroglyphics

My most favourite place we visited though was Camden, my first ever time in Camden and one day I will go back, there was some amazing jewellery I saw and it just felt like another world, I also drank bubble tea here and the food looked incredible. We had to go and see what the new Camden UO was like too, I am very jealous I don't work in this store!

  

A special mention to Wahaca, my new favourite place to eat Mexican, recommended by Dan Squire who recommends all food places, Reds BBQ Leeds was such a good shout and this Mexican did not disappoint

Our capital city is by far the best city in this Country

Northbound until further notice

Peace, love & Camden Town

Dip dye & tye dye obsession continues...

Luckily on Friday I had chance to visit my favourite Topshop store in the world for product and shopping, Oxford Circus, London, 214 whatever you want to call it, it never fails to make me skint or make me wish I had hundreds of pounds to shop with...when entering the store my heart skipped a beat as I browsed copious amounts of gorgeous Freedom jewellery, amazing rings that I loved, but jewellery is not what I am here for, oh no there's more important things I need in my life, I make my way down the escalators trying to contain my excitement, I skim past the trends and denim department and head down to the bottom floor, stopped in the beauty of the Chloe Jade Green Misha shoes

A nod to this spring summers pastel trend, a beaut day wedge, perfect for a summer wedding, I almost have a shopping heart attack, they are good!! But shoes is not something I need and there are other Topshop shoes on my list before these but cute non the less. What I am looking for is The Ragged Priest collection...I stop....I see it...3 fixtures of beautiful dip dyed, tye dyed and spiked creations...A-MAZE-ING I immedietly grab a handful of items, finding a gorgeous pair of denim shorts that are missing from my life, the shirts are amazing, the leather jackets are to die for but I am heading towards the fitting room with some summer colourful items...quing for a fitting room is intense I'm waiting, I'm rushing I need some Ragged Priest shorts in my life.....

After quickly trying on I have decided, these shorts are worth spending my last bit of money for the month on, I would have only spent it on a night out this weekend instead or food, which after last week I definetly don't need to be doing!! So I make the purchase....these are longer than the denim shorts I already have so will be perfect with a tanned leg as soon as the sun comes out...but until then I will be wearing with tights and obviously spiked litas.

Peace, love and Oxford Circus Sophs xoxo

Steal my style

I had an extremely busy week last week spent a lot of it in Birmingham then a day in london I had to fit a weeks worth of outfits in a teeny tiny suitcase, yes including shoes and my hair dryer as well as hairspray etc I didn't get much sleep and worked really hard, mah-jour eyebags were happening yet as I casually am walkin down Carnaby Street I get stopped for my street style and my look should be getting features on asos fashion finder....so here it is I am rocking an urban outfitters tye dye maxi (yeah I still can't get enough of tye dye) with a Kate Moss and Babyshambles primark men's tee which I have cut to look cropped, my balenciaga clutch (the only bag I took, wished i'd had the Chanel black flap for this look) and my favourite Topshop platforms which came in extremely handy as we did so much walking throughout the day I was grateful to be rocking my comfiest shoes!!! (seriously) unfortunately the look is I think ruined by black tights but it was super chilly and I has no choice!!!! I finished the look with my Topshop peace belt which was a gift from the lovely Daisy!!!!
Peace, love and getting papped

To buy or not to buy????

So for a while I have been toying with whether to purchase these shoes or not...yeah my shoe obsession has become an addiction since working on the shoe department!!! And now they have been repriced to £65 I think it's got to be done, they are the perfect black shoe to wear on a daily basis...I mean at 16 degrees today surely it is time to be ditching the ankle boots now??? Roll on payday tomorrow I am trying them on and let's be honest probably buying.

Oh and the fact that they are called London too makes me want them even more.....I need to be on the streets of a major city strutting around in these bad boys! Peace, love and studded heels Sophs xoxo
