[SNAPSHOTS] Insta-Week

Aug 4, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 7 COMMENTS❤❤ TAGS: balenciaga, chanel, food, LIFESTYLE, museum, out and about, persol, scones, snapshots, V&A

Always on the go with a big bag (this week it’s my Balenciaga), filled with a spare set of heels, make-up, book (50 Shades of Darker, of course) and loads of other unnecessary things.

I was served mini Shrimp Gazpacho at an event. Yum.

After-work drinks at Elysse.

My new favourite drink (after red wine) – Vodka, lime-soda and cucumber. So refreshing!

Arthur – Marvin’s new friend.

I went to see the British Design Exhibition at the Victoria & Albert Museum in South Kensington.

Inside the V&A’s wearing my favourite leather jacket from Uterque.

Chanel & Coffee (nicest take-away coffee cup I’ve ever seen!)

I enjoyed afternoon scones and cream from Le Pain Quotidien.

My other half.

[LIFESTYLE] 50 Shades Darker & Freed

Jul 30, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 7 COMMENTS❤❤ TAGS: 50 shades of grey, amazon, book, LIFESTYLE, trilogy

As mentioned, I ordered the remaining parts of the the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy the other day, and I’m already half way through! I’ve rarely been this obsessed with a book series – well not since Harry Potter (yes, HUGE fan) and Twilight.

I’m dreading to think what I’ll do when I’m done… Any book recommendations are most welcome!

From Amazon, from £3.09.

 

[LIFESTYLE] 50 Shades of Grey by E L James

Jul 26, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 5 COMMENTS❤❤ TAGS: 50 shades of grey, book, Holiday, LIFESTYLE, reading

Yes, I’m probably pretty late on this one, but I finally succumbed to all the hype and bought 50 Shades of Grey, by E L James (from £3.79). I don’t care what the critics say; yes, it’s not exactly Shakespeare, but it’s highly entertaining and incredibly addictive. I got it the other day when I went to Italy and I was finished reading it after a few days on the beach! Now that’s saying something…

I’ve just clicked home 50 Shades of Darker and 50 Shades of Freed from Amazon. I can’t wait to continue reading the trilogy!

Get it here.

Here are a few snapshots from my holiday in Italy with the girls. A combination of amazing company, mouthwatering food and delicious cocktails.

[LIFESTYLE] Breakfast Berry Smoothie

Jul 24, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 3 COMMENTS❤❤ TAGS: berries, food, frozen, fruit, health, waitrose

To maintain a healthy summer body, I often make smoothies for breakfasts. For this I love the frozen British Summer Fruits from Waitrose (£3.99).

Breakfast Berry Smoothie à la Anneli:

1 cup of mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, cranberries, rasberries)

1 carrot

Lemon or lime juice

1 handful of flaxseed

1 cup of Almond or Coconut milk

2 cups of ice

Voila! Nutritious and filling, it will keep you going until lunchtime. Enjoy.

 

[LIFESTYLE] Italian Holiday

Jul 18, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 4 COMMENTS❤❤ TAGS: Holiday, italy, vacation

I’m off on holiday tomorrow morning! Going to Riccione in Italy for 5 days with my girlfriends from London. I can’t wait. Nor can my pale skin (well, pale in comparison to what’s normal for me in the summer). I am desperately longing for some Vitamin D.

I have scheduled in some posts for everyday so keep checking in! I have a few more birthday presents to show you (I know, it’s still going!), some outfit posts and a few purchases I haven’t had time to show you you yet. Sorry, I’ve been manic these last few weeks, running a bit behind with everything. Enjoy!

Arrivederci,

Ax

Picture taken on holiday last year in Sicily with my bestfriends from Norway! The most amazing holiday ever.

[LIFESTYLE] iPhone 4S & iPhone Case

Jul 14, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE COMMENT ❤ HERE TAGS: gadgets, iphone, iPhone case, phone, technology

LOVE TALK – how cute! Swapped my tired black iPhone 4 in for a new glossy white 4S. Can’t be bothered to wait for the iPhone 5 – I only use it to text, Social Media updates, Internet and remote blogging. I don’t like too many options!

Celebrating my birthday tonight with dinner and drinks with my girlfriends. Can’t wait! Now, what am I going to wear? This miserable weather makes it so hard to put an outfit together.

 

[LIFESTYLE] #2 Birthday Present: Designers Guild Scented Candle

Jul 13, 2012 by Anneli in LIFESTYLE 1 COMMENT❤ TAGS: birthday, designers guild, gift, home, present, scented candle

Never underestimate the power of a scented candle. It can set and totally change an atmosphere and mood. In my case, it always relaxes me and puts me in such good spirits. I love coming home from a long stressful day, and unwinding with a cup of tea and candles. Bliss.

This lovely candle from Designers Guild (£14.50 for set of 3) is an absolute treat, and what better scent than Peonies, my favourite flowers.

Wishing you all an amazing Friday!
