A change of season...

It's been a few of those mad weeks again, meaning no time to blog! So much has happened and has changed in these past few weeks, it feels like life has kicked up a gear in way. Here's an abridged version of my end of summer adventures...

The mama crew took on Carnival in the only way we know how - complete with Crabbies ginger ale, Ruby Woo-a-plenty and dancing like we never will again (or have before)...this is how it looked...

See if you can spot us skanking for our lives...

Little Nai Nai and I decided to get some culture in our lives took on the V&A with my brother aka Uncle K. The V&A is surprisingly baby friendly (getting there really isn't) so we had a gorgeous day of wandering round the exhibitions, showing Nai Nai fabulous ball gowns and great British design before hanging out in the garden and splashing in the water fountain. A pretty much perfect summer's day...

My Mothers Meeting crew have taken on an evening at Bliss Spa (facials, reflexology, cocktails, megatron), countless workouts, a whole festival in our name (see post on the the Flyknit Festival) and Shoreditch House lunches. I've slowly but surely started to love running - a sentence I never ever thought I'd say - and I'm now even in the process of signing up for a couple of runs for charity next year. I really will get fit or die trying. Nai Nai and I took a trip back home to Glasgow for a bestie KS's hen do which involved pink limos and amazeballs party bags and I'm so looking forward to her wedding this weekend. What to wear, what to wear.... The Paralympics has been and gone and along with it came buckets of tears whilst watching amazing and inspirational feats and sporting excellence. It's gutting it's only every four years. My TV seems so redundant now...

So the heat in the air has dissipated and fall is well and truly here. In a way I am so glad! I can go back to wearing loads of slimming black mixed with my favourites -  leather, gold and studs. Summer weather is gorge but fall fashion rocks. This also means lots of new threads for little Nai Nai who is channelling stripes, spots, cute cardies and loadsa star prints. It's hard when your daughter's wardrobe is better than yours. We're all caught up and there's loads more exciting things ahead. This fall's looking very fine indeed...
