World Cup with Benefit

Our double trouble team is back! This time me and Tamara from The Glam and Glitter blog are watching football, indulging in some gossip while getting our make-up done and all of it in the chicest pub on Earth - all thanks to Benefit Cosmetics! Let me tell you more...

When the World Cup started a couple of weeks ago I woke up one morning and I was going through my Facebook news feed when something super pink and girly caught my eye. Clicking on the story I learned that Benefit Cosmetics had taken over the second floor of a pub in Covent Garden and turned it into the perfect location for girls to watch football. I knew then and there that I would have to visit it and share it with you guys! I called Tamara and we went to explore this pink heaven. Now let me just list some of the things that are happening in Gabbi's Head pub. You can get your brows waxed and get full make-up done every day plus have a spray tan every Thursday. All of it is complimentary for a suggested donation. All donations go to Refuge - a charity for women and children against domestic violence. You can also learn everything about Benefit products and get a skincare consultation. AH-MAZING, right?! Top it up with some delicious cocktails, snacks, gorgeous surroundings, friendly stuff and football all of which makes it one of the must-visit places in London. Hurry up and go to Gabbi's Head before the World Cup is finished because after that the pub will go back to its old self. I say we should start a petition for keeping this place looking this way forever, what do you think? There are more than enough boring looking pubs in London (okay, maybe not boring, but definitely not fun or girly enough), and there is only one pink Benefit pub.  

I hope you enjoy the pictures and I hope I made you want to visit this cool place. Gabbi's Head is located on 1st Floor, 150-151 Drury Lane, London, WC2B 5TB and is opened everyday from 12pm.

PS. Fingers crossed for my blog's RELAUNCH to happen this or next week. I am preparing something very special to share with you that day! 

PPS. I hit 10k followers on Instagram last week and wanted to thank you so much for following my blog and making me smile! Love you guys xx

Pink Shoes

Everything is better in pink shoes, right? I surely think so and the day we shot this post was the first day I wore my pink pointy flats and so many good things happened! I got a great new haircut, which was already enough to make the day special, but that wasn't an end to my adventures. Later that day I ended up on the London Eye together with a group of newly met amazing bloggers from all over the world. I had great time and will treat my pink shoes as lucky from now on.

As for the rest of my outfit, this oversized LNA sweater is one of my favourite things lately. It's so easy to style and I feel very effortlessly chic every time I wear it. You will see more of it on the blog in the future as it helps me create so many looks in my daily life.

Also, my RELAUNCH is just around the corner guys! We are working hard to bring you a completely new and amazing experience and I can't wait to share the results with you!

Enjoy your Friday! xo

Kingly Court

One more flashback to my long hair days before you'll never see me like this again.  This was shot a day before my haircut in the cutest Central London spot, Kingly Court. I'm really into colourful houses lately and the more I look around me the more of them I notice. There is something about this kind of architecture that makes me feel like I'm on the holiday. By the way, have you planned any trips for this Summer? Let me know your destinations!

My outfit was created out of necessity to stay warm (hence my wool cardigan) and trying to be a bit more boho than I normally am (hence the double flowing tops and arm party). The jewellery I'm wearing is from NOWSEEN.com and is perfect to satisfy all of your #armswag and festival style needs. 

I hope all of you are having a great day! Come back soon to see my new haircut in action. 

PS. Thank you for all of your compliments and nice comments about my new hair.

Getting Serious

This is my idea of a perfect workwear outfit for things like job interviews and work lunches when you are out and about discussing serious things with serious people. Those kind of situations happen to absolutely all of us and it's important to know the dress code. And I'd advise you to not be boring! 

Take a look at my outfit, for example. What can be more ordinary than a black and grey combo? That's where accessories come in! Don't be afraid to add statement and colour with your bag or jewellery. Make a very simple and classic outfit more fun like I did by carrying this bright orange clutch. And one more thing, try and wear something that can be worn both day and night. The dress I'm wearing here is pure fabulous on its own so I would have no problem going from a serious meeting to a cocktail bar.

What's your idea of a serious outfit? x
