WEEK 30-31: Colour, Spice and All Things Nice


It's safe to say Autumn has well and truly arrived in London, each morning I wander the streets on my way to work and am treated to the beautiful colours of the leaves on the trees and below my feet. 



I'm lucky to catch a bit of day light in the mornings on the way to work, and it gets dark again as early as 4.30 in the afternoon. I've been grateful to not have a whole lot of rain so far, but I'm betting it's just around the corner. 

With the cooler weather comes the desire to stay indoors and keep cosy. With that in mind, on Friday evening a few of us girls got together for our first colouring in a wine night. Colouring in is not just for kids anymore! Reliving our childhood memories, wine in hand and plenty of gossip to boot I think this is the first of many regular colouring-in nights.

Work in progress
Busy at work
With a side of yummy
All done!
While Friday was her actual birthday Ashleigh chose to celebrate on Saturday with a trip to the St Pancras Hotel, where the video for the Spice Girls Wannabe was filmed (amongst many other things). Clearly a long time Spice Girls lover I was more than a little excited to go visit the site. 

The building is so beautiful, both inside and out.

We first had a Champagne (or two) at the bar in the international terminal before getting our Spice on in the stairwell. 

'Press for Champagne' I work in fashion, but thats my kind of button. 
The birthday gal.
Cheers


annnnnd here it is...

Girl Power

See the resemblance...


In the zone from our Spice Girls take-off we went on to find a bar to boogie the night away. Hope you had a great night Ash, my head did not enjoy waking up on Sunday thats for sure. 

This week it's the Rugby world cup final, Australia Vs New Zealand. It's also Halloween - needless to say in a town filled with Kiwi's and Aussies London will be buzzing come Saturday night. Lets see what the weekend brings!!
