Olivia Burton enchanted garden watch


£85

I have been lusting over Olivia Burton watches for quite a few months now, in particular the vegan friendly range. I love the look of leather watches, but I hate actual leather, so the fact that there's a whole range of watches that cater for this is super exciting.

Like I mentioned in my last post, I got this from Topshop on Oxford Street. I had actually been looking at this watch, but they didn't have that one so I ended up picking this one after (a lot) of deliberation. I actually prefer this one, because I think the blue toned strap will work a lot better with more of my clothes. I'll definitely be looking at another one in the future though!

I love the size of the dial of this watch, even though it's pretty big at 38mm, especially for my tiny wrists. I don't think I've left the house without wearing it since I first put it on, it's just such a perfect accessory for me!

There's a few other bits from Olivia Burton I'm thinking of getting, there's so many lovely things I want!

mid-week in London


Last week I went to London for a few days to spend some time with Jay, as he was working there for the week. We don't get to spend a lot of time together at the moment, so it was amazing to just explore a bit together. 

While Jay was working I treated myself to a few bits of shopping, though my Olivia Burton watch was actually a treat from Jay after he'd met up with me. I'd seen that they're in Topshop on Oxford Street at the moment, and I couldn't miss out on having a look since I've wanted one for so long.

The next day we went to the Natural History Museum before going to Peggy Porschen cakes. I've seen it all over my instagram the last few months, so I convinced Jay he wanted to have coffee and cake in pink mugs in a pink cafe. I had the brownie and it was so so nice! Later we went to St James' Park while the sun was setting, and even though it was freezing we sat and watched literally everyone stopping to take photos of the blossom tree that I, of course, also got some photos of.

There's still so many places in London we want to explore together, so we love having a few days there together every once in a while.
