Holloway Road

Hey look, it’s Bel and Jess! Hanging out with these two is practically becoming a series on this blog. Nearly all of my friends are boys so it’s always fun to hang out with these two and chat about clothes or whatever, Jess is super-sweet and Bel always makes me laugh and the two of them are full of ideas and opinions on blogging, not to mention their incredible outfits. We met on the rainiest day of the year and basically just legged it between coffee shops all day, nattering and snapping brief shots when we could!

There’s no pictures of me as I forgot to charge my camera and the battery ran out (rookie blogger!). To be honest it was nothing new – I own one scarf, one pair of gloves, one rucksack and two pairs of boots so I tend to look pretty similar most of the time. I doubt you lovely readers are particularly interested in seeing me re-work the same 9 items repeatedly…

These Streets Are Made For Blogging

 I met up with fellow blog people Bel and Jess all the way back in October, so these have been sitting around for about 6 weeks now! I quite often feel like the old woman of the hills when we all hang out as I’m so old (Bel is actually the same year group as the first class I taught through to A-Level… which is bizarre) but whatever, we have fun!

I’m not actually sure what we were doing in South Kensington as it’s one of my least favourite areas of London; apart from the obvious draw of MUSEUMS it’s mostly just overpriced aesthetics. I have a feeling this is the day my boy was lecturing at the V&A and we were contemplating going… but got too busy drinking hot chocolates…? Or maybe we went solely for the pretty streets…?! I don’t know, it was so long ago! I’ve never blogged about something so far in the past!

 

I do know we went for tapas and then wandered around the residential area (or “pretty blog streets” as Jess described them) with about 20 minutes of sunlight left; talk about forward-planning. I’m wearing an ensemble from my “maybe keep, maybe chuck” pile, (does anybody else have one of these?) so a lot less put-together than the others!

 

After taking photos we went and sat in a cafe for about 2 hours and talked about appearance, the media and confidence issues (or lack of) whilst drafting out future blog posts. I’ve got about two female friends outside of blogging and never read any “female” media apart from a few blogs, so this sort of girl chat is very novel for me! I’ve now got a whole series of posts planned out (thrillingly titled “longer life-ish posts and stuff”) which is entirely based on suggestions from Bel and Jess. Thanks guys!

It’s so great having new blog friends! Please go and check out their blogs, they are both far more consistent and stylish then I’ll ever be. And if you have any suggestions for posts to toss into the mix then let me know!
