Dress Smart
So I started a new job - that's why my post is so late. I'm trying to get used to my commute - found out today that 5 of the Olympic tube stops are on my way to work...awesome.
Anyways, the first day of work is already stressful enough without having to worry about what to wear. In London instead of Business or Business Casual it's called Smart. Dress Smart-what exactly does that mean??? Well, I thought it meant business casual but now I am more confused. Some people at my company were dressed in jeans and the others in suits. I stuck to my rule of thumb...
I asked my boss today what the dress code was and she said to me "just look smart." And that doesn't help. So I will be overdressing till I figure this out.
Happy Monday!

story of my life
Sorry I was MIA for the past two days. I have been busy with a huge to do list or as I like to call it...
My shit is done and I am enjoying a huge glass bottle of wine.
Have a great weekend!

Happy 4th of July
Hey friends keep posting facebook and instagram pictures of how much fun your having...doesn't make me jealous at all. What, next I'll see a picture of you in your stars and stripe bikini. Don't deny it, you have one.
But seriously, Happy 4th! Wish I was in the States celebrating with a cold beer, lighting smoke bombs and fountains. Yes, I'm terrified of fireworks so I stick to the kid stuff. It may be because my brother would put 100+ black cats in a coffee can behind me when I wasn't looking. It's no wonder why I ended up in tears every 4th of July.
Here is a little red, white and blue inspiration.
Key is to wear it all at once!
Go 'Merica!
Don't worry I didn't forget the bikini!
Happy 4th of July!

Tuesday's Temptation: Gold Leaf Mirror
So I am still sick...ugh
At least I'm not working right now.
I am laying on the couch online shopping and came across this awesome mirror.
Guess where it is from....just guess.
What??!!
I know, I thought the same thing and its only $210
Only thing is the picture quality online isn't that great so I would want to see it in person.

The Big One
Sorry I have really sucked at blogging lately. I finally got over my jet lag but now I'm sick. I spent the majority of my weekend in bed with a mountain of kleenex...joy.
Last week my blog turned 1 and I totally forgot. It just slipped by me. So, yesterday I celebrated with cupcakes and wine...naturally! Yes cupcakes is plural - I ate more than 1 :)
When I first started this blog it was more of a way to keep my family in the loop on what we are doing and our life in London. It quickly turned into a place for me to escape and focus on things I truly love and enjoy. It's helped me grow and realize what I am passionate about. It's kind of crazy what this little blog has done for me.
I also wanted to say a big thank you to all of you for reading!
