And another event..

Met up with my girl Louise and went to an event in Jalouse (normally a night club and still one of those that can be quite fun even if I'm incredibly fed up with all the clubs in London - been there done that..) This early evening though, was the opening night for a pop-up store, The Convenience Store.
My girl, Louise and I'm loving her jump suit!! I'm in general a great fan of jump suits...

I was wearing Blouse from Anna Sui, Cheap Monday denims (now grey but used to be black.. These are the best stretch jeans I have ever bought from CM and these ones are from like one of the first collections they ever made when you were only able to get CM in Sweden, Swedish label for those who doesn't know..) They are amazing and super low cut.. Bangles and bracelets from a wide selection so aint gonna bother listing it - sorry.. Earrings CC Skye and shoes by Gina.

Full on work day...

A few full on days in the studio.. This kind of job is not the most interesting styling job, look books, but sometimes I do still enjoy doing them even if it can be very stressful (of course, a lot of shoots are..) but you don't need to have your head as "screwed" on as for a "normal" shoot.. (That sounded very bad but I didn't mean it in that way, so I hope you g0t me...) The job was for Fila sportswear..

This week we even made it in OK magazine..

More events...
Lucy invited me to come along to the 115th Anniversary Tribute of Oscar Wilde's Arrest at the Cadogan Hotel on Sloane Street, Chelsea.. Speeches, champagne, canapés, more champagne, auction, champagne again, raffle and even more champagne..
So, no wonder we looked like this.. Haha, how bad is this pic.. Seriously, come on girls..
Found us in OK magazine the following week - both of us with open eyes even.. ;)
But, bad pic again tho & they have managed to make Lucy's face really long and mine really wide?!... It's normally one or the other so no idea how they managed to do that?....
Continued our evening with dinner at Zuma, which is definitely one of my favourite restaurants in London.. In the top 3 for sure.. Apparently after champagne you get hungry so we had loads of food but I kinda forgot that I had a camera so I only managed to get the first plate with the aubergine.. Hmmm, Anna, what you like...
Lucy (yeah still eyes shut... ;) bless...) and Simon

Bling bling bling bling evening.. & actually not me for a change ;)

I know, I know.. I'm a little behind with some events I have recently attended. I've got lot on at the moment.. but I thought I should show you guys a few events still...
-
Went to Jada Style's boutique Launch a few days ago.. Basically a shop packed with stuff for footballers with 'football style' etc.. Not cheap and not my cup of tea at all (style wise)..
Fun night though and a lot of people would have loved it coz I think more or less the whole Chelsea football club were in there and the shop is not very big..
It's a lot of bling bling in there (obviously) - you almost get blinded haha (that was a very bad one I know..haha)
Stephen (my friend who's a photographer), the charming one ;) remember him from London Fashion Week ;) .. This is just at the entrance with all the paparazzi's and loads of Chelsea fans that passed by the lil shop and realised what was actually going on in there.. A lot of the footballers were really sweet and came out and signed autographs etc..
Drogba (I'm not very good with the names here, I actually had to google his name and I know he's one of the top players in the world (?yeah??)..
The bar guys couldn't really keep up wit the drinks though.. And the bar was a proper 'bin' bar..

Benknoteträd...

I'm really liking this "bone" tree.. It's like soooo ugly and a bit disturbing some how.. (??) and the last pic is even weirder.. Check it out - it's actually like how small kids draw hands. When they just realise that they have fingers and wants to dram them.. (or is it just me being weird now ;) ..
;) haha

Got a piggy bank for my piggy style...

Me and Isabel probably ate 'all the food for the day in one go' in Daylesford Organic on Westbourne Grove the other day.. Check out the amount we ordered.. Piggy style or what?....
It's a great place where you can sit in the sun (some tables you have to pull out on the pavement though - those bloody awnings - hate them!!)
Got the bangle in Naples, Florida form Kate Spade and I'm loving it!! Such a fab colour.. And liking the message inside it, A penny for your thoughts..
When finally full ;), Isabel the got some beautiful flowers at Wild at Heart, like one of my favortie flower shops, it's fantastic and they create amazing bouquets.
The shops opposite Daylesford.. The places along Westbourne Grove in Notting Hill (NOT Bayswater side - some great restaurants there but not for outside..) are the best for people watching, and like nice & fun people watching.. It's a bit more creative and interesting here - not like Chelsea - to dull for my liking.. My ideal day in London a nice sunny day would defo include a nice brunch outside on Westbourne Grove.. (202 is also a great spot just next door to Daylesford..).
Question Air is a nice shop (still just opposite..), a lot of denim but I find stuff there on and off.. Worth popping into if your around.
Had a little Notting Hill stroll and passed by Kelly Hoppen Interiors. Me like.. It's a great place and I like a lot of her stuff / & style..
My latest creation.. It's really big for being a piggy bank. I got the Buddha in the Kelly Hoppen Interior shop and Yes, I did "steal' the idea.. Hey... That's what the teach you in art school.. Seriously, they say; steal everyone's ideas when you see/hear something you like even your classmates etc.... So, the idea I 'stole' was quite different but still like 'the basic idea' and then I created my own Buddha and I'm now £700 richer ;) haha... True tho..
Still empty though ;(

Portobello Market on a Sat & some more cocktails..

Me and Veronika continued our weekend with dinnner in Electric, then to Momo's and ended up in Movida (not the classiest place on earth - if you go, you will understand what I mean...)
Following day, Portobello day, and 'heavy-head' day...
Found this cyber man on Portobello and he was 'singing' and 'creating' the weirdest kinda 'music'..
