Holiday Pic of the Day

The Sanderson
This weekend I was the most spoilt girl ever because I spent Friday night in a suite at the Sanderson Hotel in Mayfair. It really is a fabulous hotel, designed by Philippe Starck and is totally different to any hotel I’ve ever stayed in before. The style is lavishly modern with baroque twists; all the walls are lined in sheer white curtains and the furniture in reception is made up of multi-coloured, crazily-shaped sofas and chairs. My favourite piece was a clear chair hanging from the ceiling – I want to have one in my house when I grow up!
The Room
The bedroom was also beautifully decorated in wall to wall white curtains and quirky designs, like a framed picture on the ceiling over the bed which was pretty random. Phillipe Starck really is so creative, I especially loved the glowing mirror! The bed itself was huge and was situated at an angle in the middle of the room not touching any of the walls which at first I wasn’t sure about but now I want my room at home the same!
I introduced myself to the General Manager as we checked in and he kindly sent up a complimentary bottle of wine to the room while we were getting ready. I always like it when manners pay off!

The Food
I think the best part of the experience had to be our evening meal. I tried a selection of gorgeous plates including soft shell crab on brioche, seabass in lemongrass with watercress and a gorgeous barbeque chicken dish. For dessert I ate apple tartin with vanilla and basil ice cream and chocolate fondant with pistachio ice cream. (They also have a gym which helps!) We drank champagne and cocktails and had a few drinks in the bar before heading upstairs. Breakfast the next day was more gorgeous food and I spend most of the day at the salon! I left feeling totally spoilt and would totally recommend the Sanderson to anyone who is looking for a lavish hotel experience. The service was exceptional and the decor was really something different.
We heart Double Denim
It's the fashion faux pas you only thought your mum forced on you as an 80's child so she could laugh at the pictures now, but its back for Spring/Summer 2010 with a veangence!
I was pretty wary at first but it worked for me by balancing dark and light denim and colour matching my accessories. I went for dark denim jeggings with a light denim shirt from topshop. I added a black wasit belt, black boots and a black Mulberry Bayswater.......and I quite liked the overall look. Don't be afraid to try it! Here are some examples... (it works for guys too!)

Money talks!
So I've been a bit rubbish at this whole blogging thing, my first was way back in November and it's now February. I've just been so busy! So here's what I've been upto....!!
When I blogged in November I started seeing a gorgeous older guy, we'll call him J for the purposes of anonymity... He was 32, tall, dark and handsome with a fabulous house and car. He seemed like the perfect guy.......Until he made me pay half on our THIRD date.
I was totally shocked and so were my friends. He's older and successful and he invited me to dinner, so why on earth did he think it was okay to make me pay half? Don't get me wrong it's not about whether I can afford it (and for the record it wasn't exactly Nobu!), it would just have been nice for him to even offer. I guess the eternal debate is whether men should be expected to fork out on dates...I think they should. I spend my hard earned pennies on hair, make up, nails and maintaining a fabulous wardrobe to look good when guys take me out for dinner....the least they can do is buy me a pizza?!
