This past weekend I made the pilgrimage to London with Sylvia to see her favorite singer Adam Lambert's first performance in the UK. It was an incredible weekend. Here are some of the sights:

Westminster Abbey

Big Ben

The London Eye

St. James Park

Buckingham Palace

A crossing signal for people on horses

A lion fighting a unicorn

The street we stayed on

And a telephone booth

Sounds about right. Hope your weekend was as good as mine!

The Latest Trend in Paris?

Fresh off the runway:

The pidgeon hat!

Every statue who's any statue has one.

Latin Quarter, 5eme

Minnie

Does this scarf remind you of anyone?

I wore this to a cute birthday picnic in the Parc des Buttes Chaumont.

Note to everyone-- faux leather pants, although extremely baller, are also:

a). hard to sit in

b). especially hard to sit on the ground in

c). not insulating at all. so if it's cold wear leggings instead. learn from my mistakes, children!

dress and earrings- Etam

leggings- Silence and Noise (via Urban)

scarf- random souvenir shop in the Latin Quarter

It's getting warmer

Which means no jacket!! And this makes me really happy because I hate wearing more clothing than is absolutely necessary.

I spent today with my two friends (and fellow fashion bloggers) Sylvia and Juliana at a vintage fashion exhibit/auction in the 9ème arrondissement. Here are some creepy pictures I took of the girls while they were admiring the styles:

Springtime in Paris

Yesterday's weather was absolutely beautiful. I took a nice long walk around the city pre-internship and was actually able to take off my jacket. To add to the fairy tale, this particular dress was purchased on the Champs-Elysées. Add a crêpe, a baguette and a glass of wine and there you've got your stereotypical perfect Parisian afternoon.

Spain and Morocco pictures to come!
