A cheeky Made in Chelsea spot

I've been meaning to post for a while but i've had a lot going on the past few weeks (which i'm sure will be vented on this soon) but i had to do a special post on this:

A few weeks back (9th & 10th February 2012), it's a casual day at work and Amy discovers that some of the Made in Chelsea cast are filming at the McQueens bar which is very close to my work. Being big MIC fans, we had to go and take a look (as you do) and managed to spot Jamie, Caggie and Proudlock. Despite being ever so excited, we attempted to keep our cool and casually walked straight past Jamie as he had a cigerette outside. Once we got back to the office and got everyone excited (no, really!) we regretted not speaking to him so I tweeted him to let him know we had seen him where he then tweeted us back to come back outside for a photo (the power and love for social media!). Getting all giddy and actually being encouraged by our line manager to go back, we went and managed to have a lovely chat with the man himself. I can confirm he is as crazy and lovely (maybe a bit too orange) as he appears on the show. I am in love! I also couldn't believe it when i found out the next morning that Hugo and co were there for their part and anyone who knows me or follows me on Twitter would know that i do have just a slight soft spot for Mr Taylor! I actually managed to spot Hugo as i went for lunch (no, it wasn't planned i promise!) and went over for a chat. I must say, I was a little disappointed. He is as gorgeous and "smooth" as he seems on TV but he wasn't as lovely as Mr. Laing! Nevertheless, it was great meeting them and i'm now Team Jamie more than ever. Plus i musn't forget to mention, this story has managed to get into the office's weekly magazine, photos were in the staff room plus announced by the MD in our weekly sales meeting - my 15 minutes of fame?

Cannot wait for season 3 to begin, in the mean time, here is a photo of Jamie (the one of me with Hugo is too hideous to post, sorry!).




Lots of love xoxo

Gossip Girl's 100th Episode: My thoughts



Have you had a chance to watch Gossip Girl's 100th episode yet? I must say I was pretty impressed with the overall episode. For starters the ceremony was beautiful and Blair looked amazing. I do think Serena looked better but hasn't this always been the case? S outdoes B? Though I've always said Blair looked her best in season 1, if you look back, you'll notice her styling and make up has toned down and “matured” which is a shame over the seasons.

Anyway for those who have seen it (spoiler alert for those who haven't) I was thrilled when Eleanor Waldorf went to save Blair’s happiness and get Chuck to stop the wedding, we finally got to see a maternal side to Eleanor because it’s always been obvious that Dorota has been more of a mother to Blair. I was especially excited to see Georgina back. The number of 'villains' they've had throughout, no one has compared to the Georgina vs Rest of GG showdowns. Also I cannot think of anybody else better to be Gossip Girl than Georgina, makes perfect sense doesn’t it? Speaking of old characters returning, it would be nice to see Carter Bassan make a return. He’s always been one for some drama…

Even though I was upset when Louis showed his new cunning, brainwashed-by-his-mother views, it was good to finally see that he has some backbone (I still don't understand why he didn't act like this when Blair initially tried to elope with Chuck but that can remain one of the many mysteries...) When Blair found her opportunity to run (thank god) I didn't think she had called Chuck (until they showed him calling his car, then some hope lingered...) Dan’s her best friend and despite what he feels for her she's made her feelings clear. Something really big will have to happen for her to break her pact with God to get back with Chuck but I genuinely do not think GG writers will conjure up a D and B relationship from this! I for one cannot wait for next weeks’ episode to watch the aftermath of our favourite runaway bride.. .

Lastly, Nate falling hopelessly in love with another girl?! I guess it was only fair to add it in to the 100th episode. At least there's a twist; mystery girl is the one and only real Charlie Rhodes! This will be interesting! Disappointed that Chuck and Blair didn’t get together even now,  GG writers have still managed to leave us all guessing and hooked till the next episode!

Already excited for next week’s episode! Until then.. You know you love me, xoxo

Gossip Girl celebrates 100th episode!


For those who know me, I am a big Gossip Girl fan and have been religiously watching the show. From the Dan and Serena love fiasco in season 1 to Blair and Chuck's love hate relationship throughout - I have been gripped. With yesterday celebrating the 100th episode of GG, I felt it deserved a special post. For those who do not watch Gossip Girl, it is a gripping drama based on families growing up within New York but living two totally different lives. Those who enjoy the finer things aka teens living off life long trust funds residing in the Upper East Side, Manhatten, and those who prefer the simple take in life living in Brooklyn. We are shown what happens when these two worlds meet and the tangles, complications and secrets that come with it. The writers have done a brilliant job in keeping viewers engaged and certainly left gasping at the end of nearly every episode. 

My main focus for this post has to be on the current situation of the most talked about couple in the show, Blair and Chuck, in approach to Blair and Louis's big wedding day in the 100th episode. I for one have been rooting for Blair and chuck since the beginning but their "relationship" has started to turn from a modern day Romeo and Juliet to something that resembles a Tom and jerry cat and mouse chase. Don't get me wrong, i want them to get together just as much but hasn't this love pentagon (blair, chuck, louis, dan, serena) been going on for just too long now?

Catching up on the new episodes recently, I really do not understand why Louis has taken Blair back with open arms after she attempted to elope with Chuck in the mid season finale? Yet he now has a problem with her apparently having an affair with Dan?! If he had not taken her back, surely this would've meant Blair and Chuck getting together FINALLY... but no, Louis remains to stay a fool and watch his wife-to-be lust over another man.  Or whilst Blair being the believer of signs and God, we all know that her and Louis's baby was the only thing keeping them together, so surely the miscarriage was actually a sign that they shouldn't get married and there's now nothing holding her back?! I guess there are two sides to every story... I would just like Blair and Chuck to finally get together though where does that leave GG writers? Just mundane storylines aka Nate falling hopelessly in love yet again and being taken for a fool, yet again? Who knows but one thing is for sure, Gossip Girl writers do keep us guessing and I cannot wait to see the 100th episode! Apparently with a massive surprise.. I'm excited to see what's in store!

Will report back once watched, in the mean time, you know you love me.. xoxo

Tillie love!

I am a big Mulberry fan and tend to love everything each season. I've had my eye on the Tillie range for ages and finally treated myself to one to add to my growing collection. I went for the classic black because i've recently overdosed on brown and I don't do grey.. well hardly ever. I thought this is the perfect bag; it's big (and everyone knows i struggle with small bags), it has a satchel feel which i adore plus it's Mulberry.

Can't wait to start using my new baby very soon!
