Knightsbridge in Full Bloom.

Afternoon guys, 

I'm sorry everyone for the lack of blog posts, with the World Cup starting and work being very busy my evenings have been full of impromptu naps and the other half screaming at the TV. FUN!

 I absolutely love this outfit post. This Topshop dress has become one of my go to dresses since buying it. What's even cooler is I bought mine before Alexa Chung was seen in it. Mwahaha. I've also had some amazing comments about my denim jacket. I was very lucky with this buy. I bought this denim jacket from A.P.C when I was in paris with my dad in 2012. It's still practically like new, and I wear it all year round. I have to say investing in good denim isn't just a myth made up by bloggers and stylist pushed to promote denim brands. Nope. If you get a decent jacket you'll enjoy it for a long long time. I would love to get this length denim jacket in a black. 



Alfonso enjoyed the day out too. I never thought I would say this but I would love to get another one of the Fendi Bag Monsters. They are so cute and have such character. Currently Harrods have some limited edition ones to celebrate a Fendi fun fare popup in the store. 



Yep, I wore my favourite sunnies the Dior SoReal. I cannot get enough of these. I love them.


We spent the morning at the V&A The Italian Fashion exhibition. It was a lovely day so we decided to walk to Harrods (where we had lunch at the  Prada Marchesi pop up restaurant which accompanied the Prada exhibition in store) and explore the gorgeous streets of Knightsbridge. It is 100% my dream to move to the area, specifically in one of the coloured houses please. Imagine the daily outfit pics.

The black and fuchsia Chanel ballerinas are just amazing. Bought in the Chanel sale in January, I can't believe how much wear I've had out of these. They are the perfect quirky black shoes, to jazz any outfit up. My addiction to Chanel ballerinas will never end. 


The heart Chanel necklace, yep I've featured this before but I really think it is my favourite necklace. It's so romantic and cute. I've found recently that a lot of people have been asking about it. I always feel guilty telling people I bought this in 2011 but my advise to people is to always check out Chanel costume jewellery for the quirkier pieces that will sit well in the future. 


Oh god, I seriously have to say, my Chanel backpack is one of my favourite buys this year. I have had amazing use out of this. Yep it is laced in controversy regarding the price etc, but I feel like a lot of people are quick to judge people for spending 2k on a handbag yet they have their own vices. I love it, I use it, and it is so comfortable.

Dior at Harrods

Evening everyone!

I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend and not been to overly consumed by the snow! It's so horrible out, it's hard to believe this time last year we had a first form of warmth and this year we have snow! I'm over this weather now and ready for a well overdue 5 month heat wave!!!!

This week me and my partner in crime Doreen went to the Dior exhibition at Harrods and the Dior Cafe.




Now, if you follow me on twitter you'll know me and Doreen met Natalia Vodanova by complete accident when she walked in for the Dior party. And my god she's just perfection, sweet and so down to earth, she even loved the bag we were fawning over!



So we were definitely excited to visit!
We went to the Dior Cafe firstly, for afternoon tea and some much needed bubbles!
















Matching Chanel bags, maxi and jumbo outing :)

Every part of the menu was designed by the Dior team to reflect the Dior restaurants that are placed around the world. I cannot fault it at all, it was pure perfection! It's not the biggest floor space but i think it makes it extra special! Definitely book ahead!

We did want to take cupcakes home, but sadly it was the wrong day as harrods had an order of 800 boxes the day before for a wedding! AND there was a waiting list for them, I've heard and seen it all now ;)

So the closest I got to Dior cupcakes was a photo....booooooo!




After our lovely lunch we went on to the exhibition and it wasn't overly crowded and I loved being able to take photos and enjoyed posing up a storm....











Charlize Theron's J'adore Dior dresses



Me and my love Doreen <3



Dior started the houndstooth trend.












Raf Simons dresses, Emma Watson, Jennifer Lawrence. 

One of my absolute favourite dresses from the first Raf Simons collection worn by the face of Dior Marion Cotillard.






Deconstructed Lady Dior bag.


The beautiful Audrey Hepburn dress (she was TINY!!!)







Just trying to lift Natalie Portman and a chair up....not biggie!







Just loved the lighting in the Dior booth! Just putting our order in for a giant Lady Dior to go....




Tadaaaaaaaa! All ready to take home! Now Harrods....do you have a box big enough?!

Has anyone else been to the exhibition and the cafe?! Did anyone buy any of the limited edition pieces made for harrods?!!! I would love to know!

More importantly, which fashion house would you like to see  Harrods collaborate with next?

Thanks for reading my loves!
