I've had so much firework-y fun over the last couple of days, my ears are still ringing from all the bangs!
Thursday night, remember remember the 5th November, we clambered up to the top of Primrose Hill with hundreds of other people to try and steal glimpses of the big displays going on all over London.
The atmosphere was so happy and excited, a community waiting for the flares and sparkles on the horizon, exploding over everything from Canary Wharf to St Pancras to Battersea Park. My very clever and talented friends Hannah and Mandy made mulled wine in flasks and homemade oven-warm vegetable pasties.
I came home to see my parents this weekend and did my usual £29 shop in Primark. (EVERY time I go to Primark I spend £29 exactly. Weird) They had a lot of cute stuff in there and I bought a pair of my favourite skinny back jeans that fit perfectly for £8 and a cute wolf print top for £6.
Usually Primark corsages are a bit flimsy and cheap-looking but I found the one below which is huge and stiff and crepey.
I also fell in love with the mary-janes they have in at the minute, all pastel pinks, creams and greys with cute little frills and the perfect size heel for me. I fractured my ankle and toes a few months ago and have been wearing hideous trainers and sticking to sensible brogues and boots but with Christmas coming and and party dresses to buy, I wanted something as soft and as delicate as a fondant fancy. These heels were £13.
I usually hate it when people who gush about romance and love but the boy bought me flowers last week and they are so pretty and have lasted for ages so I had to take some photos <3
And this is what my tonight consists of- a pack of oreos and some hot chocolate to recover from my hideous hangover (staying up until half 2 in the morning discussing the state of the world with my Dad was not a great idea when combined with 3!!! bottles of wine between us)
I hope everyone is having a lovely, cosy weekend!
