In announcing MP3, her latest album called florescence, Maisie Peters recruited the one, the only, George Groome, of ‘Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging’ persuasion to help her announce it. If you haven’t seen the video yet, go watch it. I for one have taken it as a sign I need to rewatch this fantastic film tonight.
Growing up in Canada, lululemon was social currency. I’ve branched out to Sweaty Betty and Axelgro, but neither of their leggings are quite like lulu. I’ve come to accept that lulu will remain my go-to for leggings, but I’ve been told that TALA quality is great for a fraction of the price. Well, they’ve been hitting me hard with ads for their cocoon hoodie, and I happen to be in the market for a bat sleeved hoodie since my favourite one has grown just that bit too well worn. So, on pay day I took the plunge and paid £57 (10% off first orders!) for a new hoodie. Will let you know if I think it’s worth it.
PS what’s everyone’s take on Adanola???
It’s a weird food, I think we can agree on that. When I was little my mom would put it on spaghetti to cool it down so we would eat it, so it’s a comfort food for me. Nowadays, I’ll whack it in a bowl with pretty much anything, as long as I have some chilli crisp to add on top I’ll be happy with it. Recent combinations include:
gigantes beans, cottage cheese, and chilli crisp.
beans, tuna, corn (this comes in a little pot like cat food lol), cottage cheese, chopped celery, and chilli crisp.
ravioli, pasta sauce, and, of course, cottage cheese.
It’s SO rare that I scroll through a website or walk through a shop and actually like most of what I see. I’ve chalked this up to getting older, but probably also it’s just that the more recent trends haven’t been for me. Maybe this is changing, or maybe River Island is just speaking to me for some reason. I’m loving the cuts, the earth tones, the plaid and tartan touches — it’s all just so good. Some personal favs:
This check set is what first got me! I already have an almost identical skirt though
A gorgeous satin top; good for a day in the office or unbuttoned on a night out
Studded shoulder bag; love where the studs are on this one! That’s something so many designs get wrong imo
Brown halter top; simple and sophisticated
Court jester (comedian) Ali Wood’s routine on the corporate world made me realise the only thing i hate more than my job is people who don’t have to play the game anymore. not all of us are funny; Ali!!! we cannot all become comedians!!! some of us must keep tapping our keyboards and crying over mean slack messages in order to keep this gorgeous, godforsaken capitalist kingdom going!
Louis Tomlinson’s new album; long may i love this man and his music
the manicurist ‘active’ nail varnish set; gifted to me and i couldn’t be happier about it
chess; for real, like old school chess. angus and i play each other on every night rn.
orange juice; idk why it never occurred to me that orange juice in a glass full of ice is not something that is limited to having in a restaurant at brunch
death in paradise the tv show is back and i believe it’s what people call a guilty pleasure. i love it sm idc what anyone says, i want to be on st marie all the time.
lulu super high rise flared leggings; i can’t call these underrated, so i’ll just say i can’t say how much i love these enough. perfect for wfh days!
pacsun bikinis, specifically this style (sold out sorry) of top; i bought one in the end of season sale last summer and i wore it for the first time this weekend to a sauna, and i LOVE it. unfortunately does not include the abs and ass
aesop face cream; very unfortunately a free sample has worked its magic on me! and the full sized product is expensive!!!! I don’t even really know which cream it was, i’m going to have to go in and ask 😟 p sure it’s the one I linked though
charlotte tilbury pillowtalk lipstick; an oldie but a goodie! I found this in my makeup bag and started using it again and omg I forgot what a classic it is.
my wishlist
fubuki boots; it never snows here so i really have no need, but these do call out to my canadian heart
