tea breaks: fives

fives

I have some news! I'm now contributing to the rather lovely Cellardoor Magazine's blog, hopefully on a weekly basis. I've written my first blog post for them this week on the best place to get a cocktail in London, and would love to hear your feedback! You can have a read of the blog post here. :)

Anyway, back to the weekly fives, which sneakily aren't on a Friday this week. The five photos this week from lovely Flickr user TeresaQ's photostream; such a great photographer - and I love the girl's white lace dress! I'm having a bit of a thing for lace at the moment...

And as for other fives:

Five things that made me smile this week:

Finding a very cute little tearoom and having tea there with one of my besties
Making birthday plans
A very lovely cocktail making session with a very good friend
Fun dancing after the cocktail making session!
Watching the Wimbledon final last Sunday - although am still a little sad that Rafa lost!

Five things I'm looking forward to this week:

My birthday. I am so very excited!
My birthday party next Saturday, joint with one of my closest friends and an opportunity to catch up with a lot of lovely people
Dinner and catch ups with an old friend on Monday
Further catch ups with friends on Thursday
My work's summer party - basically a half day off work and an excuse to enjoy a BBQ - on Friday. How exciting!

Birthday plans are always so fun and exciting to make! I'm sure you're gonna have one fabulous party ahead of you. ;)

TeresaQ's photos are so so beautiful. Love how the light is just shining through the leaves. So amazing. Thanks for sharing, C! xx
