So here I am, during a little Jubilee weekend trip to pretty and pastel-y Chepstow. Unremarkable clothes though - H&M, Topshop and espadrilles bought in Spain.<br />

I'm such a bad blogger, too lazy to take decent pictures on a regular basis, oh well. This weekend we're just house-hunting, lazying around and eating cake in between.<br />
I am absolutely mesmerised by the pomp and bling this weekend, especially after watching <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01jhxjy/The_Queens_Diamond_Jubilee_A_Jubilee_Tribute_to_The_Queen_by_the_Prince_of_Wales/" target="_blank">this TV show</a>. The moment when they show a caption from an old album saying "Grandpapa in his carriage" is just priceless! ha!<br />

Oh and my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/goldenponies" target="_blank">Golden Ponies</a> shoes finally arrived and my god, they were worth the wait. Dream shoes! Now the only problem is that I'm really tempted to get these:<br />

The only problem is (apart from the price of course) is that their clothes look so naff and sad on paper.... but when you actually see them person, they're really well made and look high quality. Now I just need t find a Reiss outlet!</div>Alicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15093960261039059872noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6725223539170870919.post-37778421107050818372012-04-29T18:21:00.001+01:002012-04-29T18:21:10.333+01:00Afternoon tea in Bath<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

By the way, Nordic Bakery designers (if such a thing exists), your place is very cool but Helevetica is a Swiss font, not nordic per se. Yes, still cold and peaceful and neutral etc, but type snobs (ahem) are sad enough to be bothered by these things while sipping lattes and munching rye bread sandwiches. [End of rant]</div>

I guess this is the holiday version of this morning's post.</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
1. People Tree sun hat. Beautiful but will have to wait for the sales.</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
2. Topshop swimsuit. Is it just me or swimsuits are either 50s pin-up or flabby middle-age?</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
3. H&M bikini - not sure about the 'reinforced' top though...</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
4. H&M bikini. I quite like this colour, it matches my current nail colour.</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
5. MAC lipstick, perfect with Ray Ban Wayfarers.</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
I still haven't seen the bikini trends for this year and haven't seen anything that draws me instantly in the shops, any suggestions?</div>

<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
A few things for this spring, mostly spent working as you can see...</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
1. Essie lilac nail varnish, spring-y and pastel-y enough</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
2. Pencil skirt from Warehouse with a little detail at the back, just to make it a bit less boring</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
3. Peplum skirt from Warehouse, been itching to get one but I already have a zillion beige skirts. Plus, is Peplum really for me? Pretty on others, but can't get used to having so much going on around the widest part of my body!</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
4. Another pencil skirt from Warehouse with a bit of oomph.</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
5. Been using the exact same bag for over a year, about time I get a new one. The question is: Cambridge satchel company? Save for months and splurge on a Mulberry? Or just get a decent-looking one from the high street, such as this one from Warehouse?</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
6. Ticket holder by Cath Kidston</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
7. Eyelash curler, am I the only one whose lashes always go all over the place?</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
8. Peplum, yay or nay? Top or skirt?</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
9. For all that weekend working... (by IKEA)</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
