it ain't half grey, mum

regent street towards piccadilly circus



·
if it wasn't for the dazzling christmas billboards... i might 've mistaken my london stay today for a trot through soggy moon craters, what with water filled skies, slippery tube floors, and an umbrella short. but what are you gonna do? 
·

leicester square

·
well, what you do is you cross that {water logged vauxhall} bridge, and get on with it. 
·
highlights? pre-rafaelite exhibition in the tate and one hour of bulgarian choir voices in the national gallery. not to mention amazing conversations on the christmas sweater {they are one hot item here.}
·
(remember colin firth in one?), 

st-martin-in-the-fields rehearsals



·
a classic concert rehearsal in st martin in the fields, (notice the terrific off key {un}stained glass window in the back)
·

exclusive shop on regent street


·
and the {thrift} shops. oh! those london shops. 
·
to be continued, and tata for now! 
· 
one. ♥
