Last day of February

Finally this month has come to an end - with March around the corner, hopefully
the weather will turn to spring aswell - it's showing 9-12 degrees for next week :)
 







 
Love this blue colour!!


 
Not as fancy as yesterday's dinner - but still soo yummy!

The Landmark London

Yesterday I was invited to a lovely dinner at The Landmark London, 
It's a 5 star luxury Hotel in Marylebone - The rooms at this hotel 
are amongst the largest in London, they start with superior rooms at 
35 square metres - this is big to be London - as most hotel rooms are 
generally very small!

The thing that amazes me the most with this hotel is 
The Winter Garden and Atrium its so lovely - you walk in and it feels 
like your more than 10 000 miles away from the city centre, 
the palm trees and the tranquil atmosphere is so relaxing! 
Once you entered - you really don't want to leave!

Had a lovely dinner at Twotwentytwo Restaurant & Bar - the food is 
really good here I must admit! Don't miss the warm chocolate fondant 
with vanilla ice cream!



Artichoke and avocado salad - olive oil and lemon juice

Buccleuch Prime ribeye steak 225 gr, chips and Béarnaise sauce

Vanilla macaroon and ice cream with exotic fruit salad  

Warm chocolate fondant with vanilla ice cream

Pastels

PASTELS

 

 

Loving pastels this season - especially if they are in a peachy colour
Bring on spring!

ME TIME - HD BROWS

 
Yesterday I went to try out HD Brows (High Definition Brows) at The Athenaeum Hotel Spa
 
7 steps to the perfect brow!

 The procedure begins with an assessment of your face shape and colouring
to determine the best shape brow for you.
This is followed by tinting, waxing, threading, plucking and aftercare.
 
 
My eyebrows have been living their own life for a while and were all over the place,
so it needed some care - and this treatment was great - I really do recommend it!

Afternoon Tea

 
Something that has to be tried if you are in London - is Afternoon Tea.
The most popular ones are: Harrods, Laduree, Fortnum & Mason, The Ritz and so on..
these places are also slightly more expensive and you have to book well in advance
 
There is plenty to eat, so I don't suggest to have it if you've just eaten.
There will always be a selection of finger sandwiches, homemade pastries and
warm scones with jam and clotted cream and of course your choice of tea.
However all places do not serve the exact same sandwiches, pastries etc..
I usually book through www.afternoontea.co.uk, they often have discounts and offers
 
I have tried a few places myself, but the other day we went to have afternoon tea
at The Marriott Marble Arch, not my favourite so far, but the scones were nice.
 
There is a saying that if the scones are well done and good - the afternoon tea is good!
 
 
 
We got a nice spot near the window overlooking Park Lane

 
Finger Sandwiches & Fruits

 
Scones & Homemade Pastries

 

 
Today I am wearing all ZARA, except for the hat, which I bought in Sweden
 
 


Shopping

 
 
 


 
I bought these leather shorts from Zara - can't wait to wear them as soon as the weather allows


 
I also grabbed this dress - so cute

 

 
These 2 belts are from H&M

 
The chunky bracelet is from H&M and the red lipstick is from Sephora "jealous"


This box was on sale at Debenhams - and I wanted to try Vita Liberata for a while now
 

 
Had to buy new supplies of my regular skin products


 

 
The Jeans and Leopard Blouse are both from Zara
 
I also bought a few other things - but it so difficult to show them properly with
the iphone photos, I have to invest in a good camera soon!
