friday on my mind...

Gonna happen in the city
Be with my girl, she's so pretty...

Had a shocker of a day today - absolutely horrible, I was on the verge of tears several times. I just kept repeating under my breath, "five more days, five more days" (until I finish my current job and start my new one). Sad to feel that way about a job... I really don't want to talk about it right now though, I'm in a good mood and don't want to bring myself down.



Anyway, the saving grace of this Friday for me was V and I heading out for a delish dinner at a really nice restaurant. It was partly a bit of a 'date night' for the two of us, but also to celebrate his fantastic new job - congrats V! I love you and am SO proud of you and your career achievements



I wore this gorgeous peach/blush Sewn dress - I love that its totally trans-seasonal



These Tony Bianco "maya" flats just arrived the other week  - I was slightly concerned about them, having heard some feedback that they were really uncomfortable. But I have to say they are one of the most comfortable pairs of flats I own, I have been wearing them so much this summer



I love the sweet little buttons and the ruched bodice - I am a sucker for cute details



Being a Lord of the Rings geek-girl, the cute little tree on this pearl bracelet puts me in mind of a Lothlorien tree



This is a seriously amazing restaurant!



V's minute steak with rocket and balsamic dressing, and special handmade chips



A scrummy (and slightly blurry) vanilla bean pannacotta with a mango, strawberry and lychee salad



Best. Tira mi su. Ever!

Happy Friday to all in Blogland!
xoxo

  3. That dress is so cute!! Perfect for winter with a gray faux fur vest and gray ribbed tights. Or a black lather motorcycle jacket and tights and booties. Anyhoooo...

  4. Sorry to hear about your job, I can completely relate about having a shocker day. Spent the last two days in the ER with my boyfriend who has just been released from hospital :( I hope the next few days go really fast for you and you can start your fab new job xo

  7. Hope you feel better now.
    Your food posts are seriously killing me right now.

    That dress looks stunning on you, you have such a lovely figure.
    You look tall, are you?
    I am a sad 158cm.

  8. Thanks so much for all the lovely comments girls - reading them has been cheering me up no end, I feel so much better for them, so thankyou

    Slavisa - I am 167cm tall, which I have always thought of as being below average height, people always tell me I am short. But I have also been told I look taller than I am on here. Maybe I should credit V for his camera skills :D
