My Picks from Tumblr #8

A slightly wordy version this time...I do love Tumblr & the gems it throws up!

Where this all came from & more shizzle. 

My nails this week: 

In honour of V-day, along with these:

Lurrrvely!

In other news, had a 'Boner Night' The official term right there - like a date night, but with more excitement! (Was going to explain that it's a standard female boner thing, but then read the description & it's not quiiiite what I mean...) with the BFF, during which we discovered possibly the best toilets in the world & remembered just how much we love living in London <3

Now just waiting for payday to roll around before we go somewhere else & do it all over again! 

Any suggestions for places to go in central welcomed - but in general we're pretty up for the whole getting-lost-and-loving-it thing :)

As for now, I'm just gonna sit back & watch the #LFW tweets roll in! 

Wols

Just a swift post to share the cutest thing I've seen all day...





Bloody love owls <3

Practice makes perfect

...eventually! In no way claim to be an ace just yet, but I do enjoy learning how to do jazzy new things like so;

(not 100% sure if I can technically share this image...so just in case, there's a little silhouette of the main part)

Bloody love Photoshop ♥  

Date Night

On Tuesday, I was planning to go & see The Artist, as it's cheap as chips on a Tuesday. Because it's such a fancy film, Adam & I thought it'd be fun to dress up all fancy too...

(Old photo, but I was wearing this dress)

Unfortunately it seemed that everyone else had the same idea & both showings were sold out :( 

But all was not lost...after a cheeky beverage in a bar over the road from the ridiculously packed out cinema, we went for a wander & found an uh-mazing Mexican restaurant!  

It's called Taqueria - London's authentic Mexican Taco café.

It's not huge (but we did have decent elbow room), and it's not super fancy (I'm pretty sure our cutlery holder was Ikea's finest...), but the staff were lovely & Mexican & so was the amazing food! 

We got a couple of dishes each & proceeded to share - the only way to do Mexican in my opinion; 

Limes, guacamole & another dip on the left, Enchiladitas Suizas de Poblano (aka cheesy goodness) on the right.

Caldo tlalpeño

& the remains of our Quesadillas & Gringas! 

All washed down with this beauty

Michelada
Pacífico, lime juice, Worcester sauce with hot sauce and a salted rim. 

Yum.

Definitely worth a visit if you're hungry & in the Notting Hill Gate area!

My picks from Tumblr #7

No real theme this week...just what I'm liking at the moment :) 

All links on my Tumblr (apart from the last photo...that's just old-fashioned good times!)

Limited facial expressions

Yesterday Sj & I went shopping at Westfields to find her a party dress for her birthday next week! Exciting stuff. 

But before we got down to the serious business of selecting outfits & shizzle, Sj took me over the road to the smaller, tackier shopping center to show me the most UHmazing thing ever - one of the photo booths that takes a strip of different pictures & gives you two copies! 

After the first set, we were hooked (& proceeded to go into the Poundland opposite for props)...

And then took a few more, just in case...

BIG love for this - we're already planning our next trip ♥
