Models for a day/Vanity Studios

Dear Diary,

Now, I know why people are waiting for Friday to come...
Friday is the day that you can go crazy, be anything but ordinary and do whatever you want!
Friday for me is just another great weekday during which I can be off schedule and enjoy every single minute of it.
Last Friday was awesome! I knew what was about to happen almost a week ago but still I was waiting impatiently for Friday to come. My sweet Balbina asked me a few days ago if I would like to join her to a prof shooting at a photography studio. At first, I was reluctant to say "yes" but second thoughts pushed me into saying "YES"....
It would be a shooting day with my kith, what`s better???
During the week, we hit a couple of stores in order to find fashionable clothes, spending hours trying them on. The fitting rooms? The place where there was a real meeting of minds.
 In the beginning, we were a lil bit disappointed because we couldn`t find what we were looking for but in the end, we went back home with lots of shopping bags crammed full of clothes, accessories, etc.
Finally, Friday came and we met up at Oxford Circus at 9.30a.m. going straight ahead to Vanity Studios.
Welcome drinks and finger food were provided. We merely drunk some juice; hunger was just a word.
We had experts do our nails, hair and make-up. The photographer came and in the meanwhile we were putting on our first outfit. Lights, camera,snaps, laughter and creativity were on!
Beauty saloon, 5 outfits, 5 different concepts in 4 hours! We were running like crazy from the one room to the changing rooms so as to manage to put on everything we were carrying with us....
Our first collaboration was beyond expectations and the result is more than rewarding!
Let the pictures tell what I can`t!

 I wish I had more pics to show you! Of course, there were more but Balbina and I decided that these were the best to take and leave Vanity Studios filled with the best memories!
Our motto? "MODELS FOR A DAY!
Kiss Kiss,

All Things for All People, Everywhere/Harrods

Dear Diary,

Spring has come and I`m so thrilled about it! The more vivid colors, the more positive thoughts! Oh, and no tights girls!!!!The other day, I hit Harrods! I`m simple in love with this place.
Harrods seems to be the best first place to have a look at. Its motto is Omnia Omnibus Ubique—All Things for All People, Everywhere. Several of its departments, including the seasonal Easter department and the Food Halls, are world famous. Harrods is an upmarket department store located in Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, The store has over  90,000 m2 of selling space in over 330 departments making it the biggest department store in Europe. The UK's second-biggest shop is Selfridges in Oxford Street. Yeap, a next post will be at Selfridges. 
Unfortunately, I don`t have  photos from the inner this time since I popped into Harrods to take a few things but I will as soon as I find much more time to spend there.

That1s all for now.
I can`t believe that I made it and the post is finally on.
Good night everyone and sweet dreams!
Kiss Kiss,
Litsiana K.

"The Trembling Lady" in a purple setting/ The Albert Bridge

Dear Diary,

Time passes like water and I feel both nostalgic and melancholic about it. I wish it was September now; a whole year ahead in London. Especially, because it`s the first time after a long time (since my previous studies in 2010) and the last time for me as a student. Then, back to what?!?!?! 

Time will tell!

Anyways. 

That weather, that place,that colors emerged from the sky that day (Sunday) and that music perfectly suited my nostalgic and melancholy mood! Not only do I love parks, I love bridges as well and the Albert Bridge was the appropriate place to be...

The Albert Bridge is a road bridge over the River Thames in West London, connecting Chelsea on the north bank to Battersea on the south bank. Designed and built by Rowland Mason Ordishin in 1874 as a toll bridge, but  it was commercially unsuccessful. Six years after its opening, it was taken into public ownership and the tolls were lifted. The tollbooths remained in place and are the only surviving examples of bridge tollbooths in London (You can see the tollbooth in the pic with the red telephonebooth; all the booths together,hahahaha).

 Nicknamed "The Trembling Lady" because of its tendency to vibrate when large numbers of people walked over it, the bridge has signs at its entrances that warned troops to break step whilst crossing the bridge.

Purple is a mixture of red and blue. 
Red for passion and blue for freedom.
Purple for me!

The year of the horse, China Town

Dear Diary,

你好我的朋友, Hello my friends!

London, as you already know, is a multicultural country since it embraces different cultures from all over the world.

Fancy going to China Town? Follow me please...

The name Chinatown has been used at different times to describe different places in London. The present Chinatown is part of the Soho area of the City of Westminster, occupying the area in and around Gerrard Street. It contains a number of Chinese restaurants,bakeries, supermarkets, souvenir shops, and other Chinese-run businesses. 

As for the bakery part, I couldn't resist buying a cake...Yiammie! 

 看到您的到来, See you soon!
干杯, Cheers*
