This weekend has been so refreshing and just what I needed. We planned a spontaneous trip up to Cambridge on Saturday and it was so fun to explore a new part of England and get outside London. We celebrated Easter with friends {and missed our families!} and we’re thankful that the UK loves their holidays and we have one more day before we have to go back to work. :)

How was your weekend?

{I had to buy this gorgeous 10 Crosby Derek Lam dress after Natalie posted about it going on sale.}

{Brunch at Modern Pantry — their raspberry ricotta pancakes are to die for and I can’t wait to go back!}

{Saw this film and it was really beautiful.}

{Spring in London — is there anything better? Everything is blooming and I love it.}

{Biggest news: we found a flat! We love it: it’s everything we were looking for and we can’t wait to move in at the beginning of May. More about this later!}

London

March 24, 2014

Sorry for the silence on the blog last week. Life has been extra busy lately as all of our free time has been looking for a new flat! We just found out we have to move (our landlord is selling) so after getting over the initial shock (we’d thought we’d be in the same place the whole time we lived in London and really spent time making it our own), we’re ready to take on another change and live in a new area in London. As stressful as moves can be (especially when you’re living abroad), we’re trying to look on the bright side and see the positives in it. I’ve enjoyed little tours of some very cute areas in London (the snaps above in order are Chelsea, Little Venice, Holland Park, Primrose Hill, and Maida Vale.) Hopefully we’ll be settled somewhere in the next few weeks but in the meantime here’s a few things I’m looking forward to.

01. Being settled and having a little more space.
02. Decorating!
03. My sister-in-law and nephew’s visit in May and showing them our new neighborhood.
04. A new blog layout and design that will be live soon!
05. Springtime in London. We’ve had some warm, sunny days and I love them.

Thanks so much for sticking around!

Around Here

{Had a work event at the beautiful House of St. Barnabas.}

{A Pinterest find: Greek yogurt, some peanut butter and honey, a splash of vanilla, sea salt, and chocolate chips. So good! Gold spoon from here.}
{Stopped by Rose Bakery at Dover Street Market.}
{London.}

{Bought this Rocco bag in a pretty navy nubuck — it’s lovely but I’m debating on returning it and investing in something more classic.}
Hope your weekend was wonderful!

Over the Weekend

{I love this little flower shop in Notting Hill.}

{One of my favorite brunch spots.}

{Daylesford has an amazing grocery store inside — we stocked up!}

{I’ve been feeling Spring in the air every once in a while. This rose bush down the street is breathtaking!}
