perk

so these past few days have been interesting...

my roommate and i went to Central Perk (yes... the cafe from F.R.I.E.N.D.S) yesterday only to find a line that took up two blocks of city street in SoHo. we decided to walk away from the screaming 13 year olds. instead, we walked through Liberty, had some coffee at cafe nero, jumped on the tube to liverpool and spent the rest of the day at brick lane eyeing the markets. i got to see some Miss Van artwork - i took some pictures - and bought a one of a kind silk blouse with polka dots on it for 20 pounds. it was a pretty decent day... last night i just went to the green man with 2 other girls and sang (over) karaoke. again. ha!

for work on friday, anne sent me to wimbledon to drop some clothes off at another boutique... wimbledon was adorable, but after walking up a bastard of a hill in my 4 inch heels i wasn't all for walking around and taking a peek at the cute little shops. on my way down the hill, though, i spotted an aveda and couldn't really prevent myself from walking in... and buying some aveda comforting tea. i think the saleswoman was surprised as to how much buying the tea really made my day. HONEST. I LOVE THAT TEA! it was cheaper here than it is in the states, which was also amazing!

ok, enough about tea. here are some pictures from this week/weekend. (on Tuesday i went to the national gallery and trafalgar square for class and took a few pictures, too...)
