Los Dos

Hola. Or I guess I should say "well helloooooooooooo daaaaaaaaalings". I swear I will have an English accent by the end of this trip and Y'ALL will just have to deal with it. So today I was awoken by some very rude garbage men that insisted on dumping out the whole block's dumpsters right in front of my window. By the time I finally decided that OK, I'll get up, the whole ruckus stopped. I mean, I was up already and they left! But you know what, thanks garbage men. I got a great start to a beautiful day. After watering Zandra's endless supply of plants and flowers, Jess and I hopped on the Jubilee line to Oxford Circus. I was quite impressed with this thaaang called the tube... very clean, no hobo's asking you for money, and it is c-h-e-a-p. The first thing we did was go to Liberty, the famous department store known for their amazing prints. That's the inside of the store below.

After that we spent, oh just about 2 and a half hours at Top Shop. We literally went to every floor about three times and made sure we didn't miss anything inside this beautiful disaster of a store. Of course I bought clothes, but I also purchased some SWEET temporary tattoos, a la Karl Lagerfeld last season. I currently am sporting a chain bracelet with a heart charm that says "Love", as well as a dotted heart on my right wrist. Jess didn't want any because she has real tat's. I swear I'm cool!

We then headed over to a store called "Vintage Magazine Shop". I love how simple the Brits make everything. There were hundreds of perfectly preserved magazines from the 1950's and beyond. I purchased a Vogue from May 1962 that focused on furs. I also bought two Playboy's, one with Barbi Benton on the cover, and another dedicated to Texas women. Both were from the '70's. I especially love looking at the ad's in all of the magazines - but of course I'm very excited to preserve them for many generations. For dinner we went to a place called Café Rogue in Hays Galleria, which was French and very delicious. After grabbing beers from a pub down the street from our flat we sipped on them watching the London tower bridge which looks a lil something like the first picture at night. Well that's all for now, talk to you lovelies in the morning! xoxoxox
