Anna Allen

So I'm on a bit of a video kick it seems?! Just wanted to pop in and quickly show this wonderful video for Anna Allen's new collection.
So beautiful! & so sweet that her brother made it for her.


Back soon to show you what I've been busy doing!

Kinfolk






Oh Kinfolk! literally amazing, and some of us (ahem me) only just realised that you can get it pretty easily in the UK from amazon! So as a little reward for myself for this I just ordered myself two issues. SO EXCITED for them to arrive

Here is a very nice place to spend time on the inter webs, my new love for food & I should start saving for everything in the new Rachel Antonoff collection!

Petersham nurseries!

Oh my gosh I have been trying to go to Petersham nurseries and Richmond park forever and a day (as my moms would say) and I finally made it! Boy was it worth the wait. The weather was perfect as was the company and despite its hefty price tag the cake was pretty good too!











Next place I would like to tick off my list is Sunbury Antiques market!

Pressing flowers

I made some flower presses a little while ago, inspired by (& named after) my lovely friend Rhiannon and it's taken me until now to allow myself to keep one and to have a little go! It's been a little while since my Dryad days. How good was Dryad by the way?!actually that should be how good IS - I had no idea they were still going but check it out! Tempting!
Anyway back to the flowers! Rosie left the most beautiful rose in the car after our jaunt and I couldn't resist pressing some of the petals - and of course photographing it! I can't wait to unscrew the press and see how they're doing but I'm going to hold off a little longer to make sure they're dried out completely.

On my plate instagram

I haven't mentioned food in a while - first time for everything! So for those of you who might have been worried that I stopped eating fear not! There's been lots of this;

Baked Camembert (for one I might add- but even I couldn't finish it)

Homemade pumpkin (well butternut squash) pie


Frozen yoghurt with Pistachios & white Chocolate, YUMM

My instagram name is zolaroid are you on there too?

Springtime!

Finally spring is here! Rosie, Virginie and I took ourselves off for the first picnic of the year at Sissinghurst Castle
The weather was absolutely perfect for wondering through the gardens snapping the flora and forgetting all about school stresses and the noisy city!
Just what we needed.

Happy Mothers Day!

To my wonderful and beautiful Mum, who incidentally is also pretty much my best friend







I really wish I was spending it in Wales but hanging out with loads of kids in the sunshine here won't be so bad!
