So last Friday I went to London, and returned on the Sunday. I was gonna do this blog on the Sunday but I was soo tired with all the travelling - I just completely forgot! We arrived at about twelve, and we booked into The Grosvenor Hotel, and it was so totally swish. I was meant to share a room with my mum, but they had run out of twin rooms so we both got our own - I was so happy!
So here's the hotel ^ I was really shocked, it was absolutely hugee, and I had a double bed all to myself :) Where we were situated it was IN a train station which was totally wierd, but good too because it had so many shops like superdrug, m&s, accesorize, whsmith, krispey kreme & mcdonalds close by - so it was super handy. Then we freshened up and got the tube (which was so damn exciting, i'd never been on the underground before, only on regular train lines which just dont compare) to oxford street. I cant even begin to describe how big it was! We had to get a bus to get from topshop to oxford street, absolutely huge. It was also really, really hot. My mum completely died in the heat, but I kind of adjusted so it was cool. I also couldn't beleive how busy London was. I'd been twice before but it was the more touristy side, so I didnt really get a good look at the culture or how many people there actually were, I was reaaally shocked. So I went to Topshop, H&M, Zara, Primark and Urban Outfitters. I saw no American Apparel (gutteeed) but I still got to all the shops I wanted. Topshop was the best basically, Primark was way to busy to see anything and Zara was like middle age shop of the year 2k9, so boring, I didn't remember it being like that... Also SELFRIDGES OMFG. Best shop I've ever been into?! I think so! It was amazing, I absolutely loved it. So, so big. It was celebrating something like its 100th aniversary so it had a huuuuge display going on. I went to MAC and Nars cause were running low on time, but I still loved it. And it was finally the first time I'd been to Nars!
So we got the tubee back to The Grosvenor, and then we went out to see "Grease" starring Ray Quinn, and it was amazing :| literally everyone in the theatre was singing, and Ray Quinn was hot ;) Then we went out to a clubb and stuff like that after.
Then the next day, again more shopping, then we went to the take that tour in the night... AMAZING. Lady Gaga was their support act and she was awesome too. Here are some photos of their act...
So jaaa, so good. Then on the sunday I got up really early as we were travelling back that day, and I went to oxford street and got the tube by myself down there ( I felt pretty awesome I must admit... haha) and did more shopping.
So I absolutely loooooved London, I want to live there, and I so didn't want to leave. I'm gonna be posting a blog on my makeup swatches so check them out :)
