spring mattresses

popped out for a bike ride to Westbourne Grove yesterday and went a bit mad maxing the plastic. first i bought some delicious Diptyque Do Son eau de toilette - a fresh sweet fragrance of tuberose and berries - which reminds me of something, just on the tip of my...nose!  they've also created new solid perfumes too, next on shopping list...

then managed to grab a fab scarf from twenty8twelve with a gorgeous owl on it...in the sale basket (but still far more than i should have been spending) - just had to have it.

before stopping for lunch (and a bit of food shopping) at Daylesford with my mate Mandy as we sat and watched the super-rich and surgically-enhanced strolling by (same place i spotted Brigitte Nielsen with a bandaged eye last week!).

jersey royals and fresh eggs from Daylesford - thats dinner & brekkie covered!

on the way home i spotted a mattress in all its green finery and my mate Luke in South London also sent me one he spotted down Crystal Palace way...stripeylicious!

Plum

i just happened to stop off in House of Fraser at shopping heaven/hell Westfield (depending on how you look at it...thankfully today it was quiet, so not too hellish!) on the way home tonight.  there was a promotion of the new  perfume from award-winning makeup artist Mary Greenwell called Plum and i nearly jumped out of my skin when a lady came up behind me and tapped me on the shoulder...who turned out to be Mary herself!  we had a little chat, i had a large spritz of the delicious Plum...and fell in love with this lush sweet feminine fragrance as well as the cute packaging - especially the handbag solid perfume gold ball.  i decided to wander round and see how the perfume lasted before buying any as its not cheap and resolved to put it on my christmas wish list. nearly home and i stopped at the local shop at the end of my road and the shopkeeper commented on how much he liked my new perfume...so i definitely have to get some...just not sure i can wait till christmas....i have a feeling i may have to stop there again tomorrow afternoon!
