I couldn't think of anyone better to enjoy my first London experience with, other than my best friend Hannah. The weather was obviously on our side for the fabulous few days we were down for, with only one day of rain.
Being able to actually go bare legged for once was such a perk, due to the much more warmer climate. I finally got round to wearing my leopard print skirt which I've actually had for years and years, yet I've only worn maybe once. The skirt is made from a soft and fluffy almost like material making it extra comfy and an ideal kind of material in warmer mild weather.
This particular sunny afternoon was quite a chilled one - wandering around and having lunch at a café called Serpentine in Hyde Park. We also had a wee trip to Covent Gardens, before heading back to the hotel, to get spruced up for the much more exciting nightlife than home.

I've always wanted a black leather biker jacket, although I just cant seem to find the right one. As an alternative I recently spied this black suede one on the ASOS website (shocker) brilliant price and fitting. I also just can't quite overcome the stiffness of the leather jacket sleeves, so this new jacket is much softer and cosier - absolute perfect material for me as I'm such a lazy bed bug.
The zips which have been added on the sleeves also add that little bit of extra detail, but are also real, which lets you decide if you want a tighter or looser fitting at your wrists.
This was definitely high up there with one of my favourite outfits I wore whilst being in London. The red and green stripes on my GUCCI 'CUTIE' top are pulled out with my bold 'Mykilimshop' handbag and are also picked up through my green tassel earrings. Both of these accessorizes definitely brighten up the whole outfit. I also wore my simple St.Christopher, which I am genuinely obsessed with ever since I got it. It also just goes with every single outfit I wear.
Known me I can never ever pack properly, whether it be a weekend away or a holiday. There's always something I forget. Thankfully on this occasion It wasn't too drastic with It only being my sunglasses, even though in my case its worse due to the ones I usually wear are prescription ones. So I had to resort to a cheap pair from Accessorize and rock them blindly (or on the top of my actual glasses) Genuinely people who don't wear glasses do not understand the struggles..
I absolutely adored my time in London and will most definitely go back soon.
