Queen Mary's Garden 

As usual, me and Katrín had our weekly meet up. Yesterday we decided to go for a walk in Queen Mary's Rose Garden in Regent's Park. I can't wait to go back there when it's properly in bloom. 

After that I headed off to lovely Hampstead on a mission, yours truly is on the job hunt again, so you know, if you want to give me a job then I'm all yours! It preferably has to involve being given Sonia Rykiel and Miu Miu clothing, cuddling cute kittens and sampling different types of cheese and wine all day. No? Nothing? 

So whilst marching between stores with my CV, I'm also extremely busy with trying to finish my application for LCF. So far I've got all the documents needed except for 2 pieces of paper which are on their way right now to London (I hope!), almost finished with my motivation letter and got about over half of my portfolio ready! Wow, I think it's so surreal this might actually be happening for me, well, then there's the matter of being accepted.. more on that later.

Here are some shots from our stroll.

I wore a maxi dress from Topshop, this amazing jacket from All Saints (the photos don't really do it justice), and my same old 'guilt' boots from Primark. Also, being a highly important person these days (printing CV's, doing uni applications and what not) I have to carry around my laptop a lot more and I always dress it up in it'sMarc by Marc Jacobs sleeve, you can buy other similar ones here, and they're not too pricey!

My gorgeous headpiece is by the Icelandic designer Thelma, she makes the most amazing headpieces and hats. For you Icelanders reading this, her headpieces are available at Birna, on Skólavörðustígur. 

My necklace/harness is from ASOS, they used have quite a bit of them about a year ago, but here's one similar. These shots are usually my favorite, the cheesy 'oh god there are people walking passed' grin, but they rarely turn out good, haha! 

Well, that's all for now my dears. I've had some interviews earlier this week, and tomorrow I have an interview for a team leader position at Urban Outfitters, I don't really know how I managed to snag that interview, but wish me luck!
