Wooly Jumpers and Winter Wishlists

Hello! It's been an extremely long time since our last post here on the blog which is not good! However, all will soon be well as we are planning to get back into the blogging scene (yes, I called it the blogging scene) and posts will be far more regular! I thought I'd do a quick update...

As winter has finally dawned upon us (hallelujah) the season of tea sipping by the fire, fluffy slippers (which are a huge subject of conversation between Vicky and I), wooly jumpers and tights, christmas card writing and spending too much money has arrived along side it and I for one, could not be more excited!

I'm currently on the prowl for the perfect skater skirt to wear this winter because as practical as jeans may be, they are not always comfortable and can get quite boring which is a shame and I'm obsessed with these two from Olive Clothing .

I'm hoping to test out my self control on some online shops on the 1st of December because Vicky and I set ourselves a challenge called 'No Spend November' which oddly enough I managed to stick too, so I must wait until December to unleash myself on the shops. 

Last week, we went to a Lucy Rose gig in the most adorable place in our town, the inside was decorated with fairy lights which accompanied Lucy Roses voice perfectly. She was truly phenomenal and due to the venue being so small the gig was really intimate which was something I'd never seen before! If you're not familiar with Lucy Rose you should definitely search her up on youtube. I would personally recommend 'Night Bus' or 'Be alright' which, is still in my head and has been since last Tuesday! 

Vicky and I were fortunate enough to meet Lucy (yes, we are now on a first name basis) after her performance and we bought some of her tea (she sells her own tea and jam, how incredible!) which is true to it's word... amazing. It's the perfect combination of earl grey and english breakfast and as a tea fanatic, I approve!

Not the greatest quality, but there was a large head in the way, so that is my excuse!

Anyway, winter is here my dear friends, and I for one am determined to set aside the fact that I have many exams coming up (I wish I could genuinely do this) and make this winter an unforgettable winter (could I be more cliche?)

We have many plans for this winter, Lucy Rose can be ticked off the list, A trip to London to go Ice Skating at Somerset House and to drink tea is coming up, a christmas dinner with friends and an end of the world party, oh, and (too) many christmas shopping trips.

All I can hope for now is a sprinkle of snow to make this winter perfect. 

Goodbye for now!

i seem to find joy in immaculately organized places...

hello, it's kimiya! it's true that you can tell a lot about a person from their room or their home, it shows us a glimpse inside the environment that they surround themselves in day by day. i will be the first to admit that yes, i do have a tiny bit of OCD and yes, my bedroom definitely reflects my personality, but that's just the way that i want it to be, i like to think that if someone walked into my bedroom they could see from the second that they walked in that i like to keep things clean, i most definitely like to keep lists, i like to get creative (although, admittedly i'm not very good at it!) and make collages and from my collection of snippets of new york plastered around, that i like new york...

i cannot wait until i am old enough to have my own home, because i can already imagine it. i often spend endless hours scrolling through interior design websites and drooling over the places that some people call their home. i often see indoor brick walls, stacked bookshelves, crisp white bed sheets, dangling lights, wooden floors, cream walls, fairy lights strung elegantly, balconies, world maps and clusters of photo frames. so, i thought i'd post a few of the pictures that inspire me the most.

i know, it's not everyones cup of tea, so i apologize if this post does not interest you in anyway!

i hope these inspire you in some way or the other!

and i also hope you have a lovely day/evening!

wondering why i don't own a celine bag...

I would just like to admire Céline bags and wonder why i don't own one. The detailed stitching, attaching each smooth leather piece together. The perfect mixture of black, brown and beige, perfectly finishing off an outfit, yet unfortunately not mine. I have for many years, wondered why there isn't a designer bag in my wardrobe, recently my obsession has switched from the Marc by Marc Jacobs collection to this Particular bag. Personally, i think this bag, will forever be an iconic item in fashion such as the Hermes Birkin Bag - which is also a must have, but that is on a complete different scale of wishes (and prices sadly), and in twenty years it will still be in fashion, because can it not be?

If only I owned this, life would be a better place.
