instagram update

instagram update.


i'd thought i would do a little update via my instagram posts, you can follow me @livvychristine if you fancy!

my 10k run is coming up on bank holiday monday so i've been running through notting hill after work and stopping to take pictures of the pretty houses (more like catch my breath) which makes people give me funny looks!

it was my birthday on wednesday so this week i have eaten allot of cake and macaroons, have also  brought myself flowers several times (under the excuse of my birthday)  

i have been going on little browses to the shops recently and looking at cute things i can't afford/ pretty dresses that i need to chose from for a wedding i'm going to. 

leave me your instagram names, i love looking at peoples accounts!

today i turned the grand old age of twenty two! 
it has been spent wandering round covent garden with jay munching on macaroons and hiding from the rain (i will be celebrating in style on sunday with cocktails and cake) 
it has also been spent singing taylor swift, its pretty much illegal not to isn't it...
now i'm eating pizza in my pj's because thats how we party in our household!
i also took my new american eagle outfitters jeans for a spin, which i see myself living in for the foreseeable future!

jumpsuit | newlook
cardigan | zara
bag and shoes | primark

normally i go to hyde park sweating and looking like a tomato (basically running, kinda...) however i haven't actually been for a proper look, so on a sunny monday we went exploring and pretty much stalked swans for photos, from a safe distance, some of them are the size of dogs!
this jumpsuit is one of last summers purchases but still a favourite! it pretty much makes me feel like i'm wearing my pj's plus its paisley, which is a dream combination in my book.

the kettle shed.

the kettle shed review 4

just incase you hadn't guessed tea is my favourite thing, ever. 
it seems people have noticed, zoe who runs the kettle shed sent me some of her beautiful tea to review. i have previously reviewed their lovely tea's, but after a little update they are back with new blends and packaging.
if you're thinking 'ohhh these look delish i must get my hands on them immediately, but do i really need more tea' the answer is yes. as for every box of the kettle shed tea is sold the company donates tea directly to homeless shelters across the uk. 
tea and a good deed, what more would you want!

the kettle shed review 3


i will start my favourite blend of rooibos and carrot cake, it is sweet without having to add sugar but its full of good things like carrot, practically salad eh! i like having the option of loose leaf tea as well as tea bags because sometimes you want to feel fancy with your cup, saucer and tea strainer. 

brew time | three mintues
enjoy with | milk or without

the kettle shed review 1


a melon and cherry blend which is right up my street, i am aaallllllll about the fruity tea's hot, iced, in some sort of baked goods, i'm there drinking/eating to my hearts content. this blend has green tea in it which is good if you have like me, eaten too much and feel like that food baby is never going to leave. a little bit of green tea sorts you right out.

brew time | three minutes 
can be drunk | hot or iced

the kettle shed review 2


this chocolate and chilli blend packs a punch, it smells just like chocolate (i have taken to sniffing the cup when drinking this as it smells so good!) the taste is smooth and subtle and then BAM chilli comin' at chaaaa just after you've gulped it down (its good to imagine that sentence with really bad ninja moves). 

brew time | three minutes
enjoy with | milk and sugar

admittedly these are last weekends scenes, but you know....
jay and i popped home as mama and papa have welcomed a new member to our family, after a few months of being dogless we adopted gypsy. she is the sweetest little girl and although a bit shy she fits right in. 
we all know how much i love being back in my bed (especially with my cath kidston sheets) and i admittedly spent a large amount of the time in my bed over the weekend.
and yes, more blossom pictures and no i'm not sorry.

jacket | rare london*
top | johnnie b*
dungarees | ebay
bag and shoes | primark

i won't lie to you, this outfit makes me feel like a five year old (and i love it!) 
i've actually had the dungarees for about a year after i saw them on the lovely rosie and decided i had to have them! 
somehow they never made their way onto the blog until now, probably to do with the fact that i accidentally leave clothes at mama and papa's when i visit....

evening walks round our neighbourhood when the sun is still shining is currently one of my favourite things at the moment! although when we were taking these pictures people kept coming out their houses and i have lots of pictures with my 'is there a person/awkward face' so attractive i know
