I have been a very very bad blogger. Settling into London life is proving more difficult than I first imagined! Firstly, it is hot hot HOTTTTT- I am inappropriately dressed more often than not due to the fact that I’m used to near Arctic conditions at the best of times… I have resorted to dressing as if I am holiday in Spain- did I mention that I don’t really make an effort when I’m on holidays? I always find it’s most important to wear clothes that allow a good deal of bloating when I’m on holiday- you get the idea XD
Thanks to The Portmanteau, I had the great pleasure of going along to the final debate in the Intelligence Squared series. It centered on the theme of “Fashion Maketh Woman” and had some great arguments from the likes of Grayson Perry, Paula Reid and Susie Orbach. I went in on the “for” side but left absolutely in favour of the opposition. It was really amazing to hear so many intelligent musings about fashion rather than the trite, same old we’ve all been subjected to over and over. The side in favour were a bit of a let down I have to admit but if you have the time you should take out an hour to watch it over here. If any of you do manage a look, I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Apart from that, my job is going gooood, I’m reading a lot and I’ve been laughing at the fact that my friend’s balcony burst into flames because of the heat yesterday, for serious.
If anyone has any suggestions of awesome stuff I should do/awesome people I should meet, you know what to do!
ps I like these things
