i always find anthropology so inspirational. my first ever visit was in the grove in LA & i was in love ever since. i eagerly awaited the opening of the regent street store & it really doesn't disappoint. i'm yet to visit the other UK stores but they are definitely on my to do list.
if ever you're feeling down, uninspired or find your self at a loose end on a rainy day there is no better place!

7 days to go...

only 7 days go to the London 2012 Olympics. it feels like everyone has jumped on the bandwagon using some tenuous link in their marketing. my stalwart favourite h&m have done a great job of transforming their W1 windows with their sports luxe trend pieces. i managed to get a few clear snaps from two oxford street stores and the flagship on regent street- i think you'll agree they are super! well done h&m!

kinda kale crisps

after trying kale crisps at the whole foods stall at the hampton court food festival i have been meaning to give them a whirl myself. so i thought they'd be the perfect thing to test our new oven...

you'll need:
- kale (i couldn't find any so opted for spring greens)
- wok oil - or olive oil
- salt
- pepper

dinner at wright bros soho

had a lovely catch up with some gorgeous friends on tuesday night & decided to make the most of the pre theatre menu at wright bros soho oyster house.
the menu is an amazing £14.50 for two courses & £16.50 for three.
between us we ordered the oysters, whitebait, whole grilled mackerel & moules mariniere.
we couldn't resist the bargain of £2 extra for desert & ordered the caramel cream, almond & frangipan tart & stilted with onion marmalade. this also came with a coffee- but I opted for a fresh mint infusion! yum!!!

good time had by all!! will definitely go back to sample the lobster & fruits de mare i spied on the other tables.
