Last but not the Least of London

Image
S ince most of you are wondering, I already went to London way back 2005 and I almost don't remember anything from that trip (except living in a flat across McDonald's) so, I was so glad that I got to spend my summer 2013 there plus my internship for school purposes. Going solo for an international internship in London is definitely an adventure, I was the only one in our batch who took the leap of faith by having that independent international internship. Everything just happened so fast!

The Heathrow Look

Image
M y last outfit before I left London! This is actually an airport look and we took these photos 10 minutes before we boarded the plane en route to Qatar and then Manila.Good thing there's just a few people at the terminal that morning or else there would be a lot of photobombers on my photos.

Abbey Road

Image
O n our last day in London, me and my sister woke up very early in the morning just to visit and take photos at the famous Abbey Road (then we went at Madame Tussauds to see 1D's wax figures and then Tower Bridge). Just so you know, I live in the very central of London which means I'm near Oxford Street, Abbey Road, 221B Baker Street (yep, Sherlock Holmes!), Regents Park... so, it was very easy to commute from one point from another.

Ayo GG at London!

Image
T wo days before going back to the Philippines, my sister and I independently roamed around the city of London for a day. From King's Cross Station, we went to Trafalgar Square, Carnaby Street and then Oxford Street to do our last minute shopping on a cold day.

Spring-kles on the Park

Image
T his is probably the very first Spring weather shoot I had when I was in London even though I went there around the last week of April because it's always a very cold/gloomy/rainy kind of weather but on May 28, the weather in London started to be very sunny and I almost felt like I'm back in the Philippines. So, what's the best way to spend the lovely weather? Go to the nearest park! On my part, it's Regent's Park.

Famous in London

Image
When I was in London,  I decided to visit (as much as possible) the famous tourist spots around the city and make it to the point to feature it in a blog post. And so here it is, an outfit post taken in St. Paul's Cathedral and some tourist-y photos when I rode the very famous, London Eye.

Galaxy Defenders, Stay Forever! + Next Press Day AW13

Image
I 'm obviously having a hard time publishing my pending blog posts because of my internship but anyway, I have to finish them up since I'm already receiving packages from shops that needs to be reviewed and posted right away! So this post is all about a blogger event that I attended last May 22 which is for Next's Press Day for AW13.

Harry Potter Studios in Leavesden

Image
T his is a photo diary from my Harry Potter studio tour in Leavesden last May 30, 2013 (yep, it was almost two months ago!). I took a lot photos that day so, it was pretty hard to sum them up and make this post as short as possible. We booked the tour on the first week of May and I was really excited about it so I had to browse random blogs and take a look on what would I see on the studio and so, I wanted to do the same and decided to make this post to help future visitors of the studio have a sneak peek photo tour.

Sneak Peek: Harry Potter Tour in London

Image
A pparently, I won't be posting another blog entry with just outfit and travel photos this time since I wanted to make a special post for my Harry Potter tour last month in Warner Brothers Studios-London. Here's a trailer that will hopefully excite you and wait for the full video and photos from this tour. This was a really special trip for me because I grew up watching Harry Potter movies and been a fan ever since it came out... I'm still waiting for my Hogwarts letter though hahahaha!

Sail away at Ladurée!

Image
H ello everyone! I am so sorry for the lack of posts, I have been so busy with my internship and some school stuff that's why I haven't really got the chance to go online for a while. But anyway, amidst it all... I decided to publish a new post all about my afternoon tea experience at Ladurée when I was in London because I stumbled upon a tea shop in Manila yesterday and it brings back so many memories. between me and the most amazing macarons ever. Hahaha!

The European Dream

Image
I am back in the Philippines after almost 2 1/2 months in London! But still, I am going to posts a lot of travel and outfit photos from the land of double decker buses that will probably last until the end of June. First off, I am going to show you another museum that I visited last May 11 (I think?) and my outfit that made almost everyone stare at my legs for a minute.

Greenwich Video Diary

Image
F inally, a new video diary from my Greenwich, England visit last May 18, 2013 (read about it here) . As I am typing this post, I am currently at the Heathrow Airport waiting for my flight to go back home in the Philippines and also will be back at school 5 days from now, crazy! I still have a lot of outfit posts and video diaries to blog so, I'm sure this month will still be filled with London posts.

I'm a Féline, meow!

Image
H ello folks! I am trying to finish all the posts before the end of the month from my recent trips (including last month) but apparently I just can't. There's just no time for me to stay with my lappy toppy and edit photos, blog, answer all-emails etc. the whole day as I have work everyday and on weekends we are visiting more places here in London. But anyway, I'm really trying to finish them up hahaha!

No Future

Image
H ello folks! I've got four more drafts that were taken for the past few weeks (and I'm really trying to finish them up) but instead I am posting these photos from yesterday because it's my first out of London trip and this is probably the most favorite outfit that I've worn ever since I set my foot in England... so, my mind is telling me to post this up as soon as possible so that I can share it to all of you.

The Not-so-Basic Basic

Image
T hese sunny photos feels like it's been ages ago! Well it is... (sort of like three weeks ago? Haha!) but that's not the point because apparently, London is back to the below 10 degrees weather and gloomy sky again. Hopefully, it's going to be sunny on the next few weeks because I am about to finish my internship, yay! Cheers to a tourist mode once again and everyday shooting of outfit photos.

Channelling through the Garden

Image
R emember when I told you guys that you will be seeing a few more posts of mine with the cherry blossom trees as my background? Well, here's another one! This look was taken last month but I'm only blogging it now just because... I have a weird way of organizing what to post first hahaha!

Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching!

Image
I 've got few more outfit photos to blog that were taken last month but instead, I'm posting this recent shoot and travel photos from last weekend... way to go for organizing blog posts hahaha! Anyway, we decided to go to the famous Portobello market and find out why it's part of the "must-see" places in London.

Almost Spring

Image
T his post has been on my drafts for about two weeks now and I've got more posts coming! Hopefully I can manage my time between my internship, watching endless American TV shows over the net, touring around London, editing tons of photos and blogging.

Boomerang + My week in video

Image
M oving on with my outfit posts that consists of too much girly-ness by wearing dresses and skirt, here's a totally new style that I wore three weeks ago. In the meantime, here's a quick glimpse of the Buckingham Palace where the Queen lives... and no, she wasn't there (too bad!).

A Walk in the Park

Image
I t's finally spring here in London and that means I only have to wear two layers instead of three! Here's an outfit that I wore when the sun was out and the perfect thing to do have a walk in the park and just take photos. Since I started my internship that week, I decided to wear my corporate attire during my first day while we stroll around Hyde and Kensington park.
