Weekend Scenes

Welcome to Sunshine & Stripes, a place where I will be sharing things that inspire me and make me smile. First up, Weekend Scenes. This is the first weekend of the year when I wasn't working and I was so happy for the gorgeous sunshine. I lapped it up, lounging around on my terrace reading Lionel Shriver's novel Big Brother

Miu Miu sunglasses, Korres sun cream, Paul Smith towel

It wasn't all sun worshipping however. I've teamed up with Simply Swim to do the London Triathlon this summer and as I can't swim properly I've got some serious training to do! (More to come on this).

On Sunday we took a wander to Brick Lane for bagels and people watching, before heading to Columbia Road Flower Market to buy some beautiful tulips.




We also stopped by one of my favourite homeware stores Labour & Wait and picked up these retro drinking jars.

Wanting to make the most of the balmy evening we decided to finish the weekend with our first BBQ of the year, let's hope it's one of many!
