Hi Ladies
This week is so exciting! How great is this weather? I LOVE Spring & the feeling of a fresh start. Maybe they should change New Year's Day to March 1st!
So the sun is shining & there are thousands of crocus poking through the grass but Spring is so much more than that, it's the beginning of the Summer. It's the beginning of BBQ'd salmon, long light evenings with fabulous friends, flip flops, sun creams, rose wine (instead of winter red) & the sound of the Grand Prix on Sunday afternoons. There is nothing better than the first time you wear your flip flops outside. I always do it a tiny bit early & my feet freeze!
This week is also Paris Fashion week, Christian Dior Friday 5th, Karl Lagerfeld & John Galliano Sunday 7th, Giambattista Valli Monday 8th & Chanel & Alexander McQueen Tuesday 9th. I'm so excited but so sad about Alexander McQueen's show. I'll be up bright & early 10th to see the pictures on http://www.vogue.com/ :)
Update on the new dvd : It's just great, I LOVE it. I'm not going to pretend that it doesn't hurt because it really really does. It's a good kind of pain though & as soon as it's over I feel fantastic. I've been doing it about a week now & I can do more of the sections than at the start so it must be working :) So, thank you Tracy Anderson!
My vacation is getting closer & I'm thinking about excess baggage again. This Spring I WILL travel light damn it! I love Ibiza in May, nice & quiet (before the tourists arrive) & so very casual. So why is it that I take every piece of summer clothing I own & we end up paying for the extra kilos???? I see girls at the airport with small(ish) holdalls rather than wacking great suitcases & I'm always envious of their packing abilities. So this year I have a new plan. I'm going to buy a small(ish) holdall (leaving the suitcase in the loft) & only pack clothes I am actually going to wear. 1 pair of jeans not 3, a couple of pairs of flip flops (1 day, 1 sparkly) not 6 & I've already saved myself about 3kg!! I probably don't need 3 different kinds of body lotion & every eyeshadow I've ever owned & I'm thinking that if something doesn't fit before I leave, it probably won't fit when I get there so I won't take it :) I really hate the whole capsule wardrobe idea that every magazine comes up with in their May issues. I never want to be THAT organised! Next step is to buy the small(ish) bag & then take it from there :) Really, at the end of the day, I'm going for the amazing sunsets & chill out time with my Husband.
OK, time for the exercise so I look cute in whatever clothes I take with me!
Enjoy the sunshine
