Outfit Post: A Sunday in Pimlico





Last Sunday, London was a glorious place to be. The sun was shining and it got warm enough so I could finally wear the summery jumpsuit I got from Dorothy Perkins a while ago. At the moment I feel drawn towards anything with palm leaf prints and this jumpsuit is no exception! Even though some jumpsuits can feel a bit limiting and difficult to wear, this one is super comfortable. As I learnt not too trust the English weather I wore my denim jacket with the jumpsuit as well as my tan flatforms (Office Shoes) and one of my favourite vintage bags (which used to be my Mum's).
We spent that morning at the car boot in Pimlico, looking for bits and bobs for our new flat. Even though we didn't buy anything special, it was still nice to have a browse. Capital Car Boot in Pimlico is a quite big one, so definitely have a look if you're around. You never know what you might find! After rummaging through stuff, we went to a small café called Pimlico Village just outside the tube station. It was actually quite late by then but we still decided to have an English breakfast and it was delicious!

Dreaming about holidays #GiveGregTheHoliday

Today was one of the funniest days at work ever. First everyone and I mean everyone received Greg's holiday request (which was sent out to the whole of Arcadia by accident). Then hundreds of hilarious emails by staff followed, making the whole of Arcadia's HQ laugh. Within a short time #GiveGregTheHoliday was trending on Twitter, banning the #elections from numero one! Long story short - thanks to Twitter he got a free trip to Vegas and loads of freebies by some other brands within hours. Greg however was nowhere to be seen as he works night shifts and was likely to be asleep when all this happened. What amazing news to wake up to though!

All the talks and tweets about Greg's holiday made me dream about days off work and white sand beaches. With the rain clouds returning to London I can't help but think more and more about my planned trip to Thailand. Not that it is any time soon...but I'm already so excited for my sister's wedding at the beach and trips around the beautiful islands in the south. For the ultimate beach holiday a bunch of amazing bikinis and swimsuits are needed. Two of my favourites on the high street are from Reiss at the moment. Both designs really stand out from other swimwear because of their straps! The Bikini on the left features a gorgeous jungle prints, which would look beautiful on tanned skin. The red swimsuit on the right is incredible as well and really stands out because of its unique design at the back and its bright colour.
