Anthropologie

White buttons light shade.
Lamp shades made from ripped fabric.
Love the colours in this necklace.
Tea towels.


Yesterday our first stop was Anthropologie in Regent Street. I took lots of pictures so I'll show more tomorrow. This American shop is so different from any other shop. There's a growing wall of plants in the Regent Street store and in their Kings Road shop a waterfall and little stream runs through the shop. Well worth a visit.


 Did I buy anything you are perhaps asking. Well today is my birthday so lovely daughter Amy bought me a really nice top from Anthropologie as her present to me. Yesterday was my birthday treat.
 We also found a great new Spanish clothes store called Pull and Bear in Oxford Street that daughter two recommended. Good quality clothes at very reasonable prices.

I wanted to visit one of the Cabbages and Roses shops but was disappointed that their Mayfair shop is closing down so very little there. We went in Liberty where I wanted to find nice gift wrap but  found it too expensive at £3.95 a sheet so left empty handed. More luck at Peter Jones (part of the John Lewis family) where I found real dried flower petal wedding confetti which will be ideal for including in my wedding invitation collages. We walked for many miles as usual and looked for the Peggy Porschen tea shop. I've seen it online and it looks so pretty. However this wasn't til after 6pm and we failed to find it, settling on CocoMaya instead for an enormous slice of chocolate cake to share and tea from a gold tea service. It was a brilliant day out. More pics tomorrow. Thank you darling daughter.
My other darling daughter and darling son and their partners are visiting after work tonight to take me to Ask for a meal. I am very lucky. Happy Birthday to me!!
