IT girl

Was out with Mr. Dot on Sunday afternoon, about to switch to O2 @ the Carphone Warehouse, when we saw Lindsey floating down the King's Road, in top to toe black and white. While we spoke, she'd move her white fur ear muff ever so elegantly, as if listening to the most beautiful music in her own private world. I wonder: is that a new kind of iPhone headset?

Lindsey lives in London now, and I couldn't believe that she said she works in, of all professions, IT. One of the calmest, most serene, people I've seen in a long, long time.

that blue reiss skirt

Rarely does an item of clothing make me hysterical, but I found myself running down the King's Road chasing Sam to find out where she got that fabulous blue skirt (Reiss). She's got it just right for a cooler day, but this skirt will be great through the summer. 

I hesitate to identify the source because it's selling faster than hot cakes, and I want one! It comes in three colours: this perfect periwinkle, a creamy white, and watermelon. Yum.

p.s. I've discovered that Rachel, on her blog (see Little Miss Rachel under 'nice things') has also fallen in love with this skirt. Rachel, if you're reading this - it's at Reiss! I've put their website up under nice things, too. But please don't buy the last one!

hello, cupcake!

The cupcake cafe - the South Ken branch of the Notting Hill 'Hummingbird Cafe' - has become something of a scene, and with the Lycee nearby, it's got a whiff of the Parisian about it. There's something about cupcakes that girls love, and where there are girls, the boys aren't far off.. even tho a bloke wouldn't normally be caught dead voluntarily purchasing a cupcake, now would he?
