DOTS FOR THE DROPS (of rain)!

I'm back in London now after spending a wonderful few days in warm and sunny Spain, and guess what... it's raining! I couldn't believe it spent all day raining yesterday! So, to celebrate that today was a little sunny, B and I decided to stay away from the Notting Hill carnival and go for a walk around the neighbourhood - it ended up being quite nice and relaxing!

What to wear... Dots! I love dotted skirts, dresses... feels so summery! (and when you live in London all year long, you need to find a way to remember that hey, despite the rain and the 16 degrees... we are in the Summer!)

STRiPES FOR A SUMMER DAY...

Finally, after 2 months of rain, the sun came out! Looks like we might have a bit of a Summer in London after all, and what a better way of enjoying it than going for a picnic?

I was feeling very summery and felt like wearing stripes so grabbed my yellow shorts and striped t-shirt and I was ready to go!

With the kids swimming in the pond and the dogs running in the fields, we made our way to find the guys (don't ever trust a man's directions on the phone - you'll surely get lost). Eating, chatting and laughing, we had a great time. Fingers crossed for more hot and sunny days like Sunday, and many more picnic's to come!


When everyone left we decided to stay a little longer and B took a few pics - some below.

Finalmente, después de dos meses de lluvia, ¡salió el sol! Parece que, al final, tendremos un poco de Verano en Londres, y ¿qué mejor manera de disfrutarlo que yendonos de picnic?


Yo estaba muy veraniega y me apetecía vestir de rayas asique cogí los pantalones cortos y la camiseta de rayas y ¡lista!

Con los niños nadando en el lago y los perros corriendo por el campo, fuimos a buscar a los chicos (nunca os fieis de un hombre dando direcciones... seguro que os perdeis). Comimos, hablamos, reimos, y nos lo pasamos genial. Esperemos que haya más días de sol y calor como el Domingo, ¡y muchos más picnics!


Cuando todos se fueron, nosotros decidimos quedarnos un rato más y B hizo varias fotos - podeis ver algunas aqui debajo.

When one of my work colleagues, lovely Jane, asked me if I would model for one of her photography projects, I instantly said yes! 

'You have to pull 8 different facial expressions, and no hands allowed!'. It was an early start of the day but so much fun that it was worth it! You can see the 8 shots she selected below!

 Cuando una de mis compis de trabajo me preguntó si haría de modelo para uno de sus proyectos de fotografía,¡dije sí al instante!

'Tienes que poner 8 expresiones diferentes ¡y no puedes usar las manos!', me dijo. Empezamos el día pronto ¡pero fue tan divertido que valió la pena! Podeis ver las 8 fotos que eligió para el proyecto aquí debajo!

I'm wearing Mint shirt and studded collar.
