This weekend has been an absolute whirlwind. I travelled
down to London on Saturday to attend the Plus size awards (where I won an
award!! More on that later in the week) and managed to squeeze in a cheeky day
out with the brown eyed crew taking in London in all its Christmas glory.
Just before I left Yours Clothing sent me this #celfie teeshirt £10
which I absolutely love. As an obsessive taker of Selfies or “Celfies” the
irony isn’t lost on me and I’m a sucker for black tees with white logos in.
I
chucked it on with some black snakeskin print Jeggings £22 also by Yours and my white
hightops. My coat is past season Matalan but Yours are selling this jacket which is very similar.
Be warned these photos were taken on my phone and I was very hungover so look a little boss eyed but hey if you want perfection buy Vogue. This is the blog of a fat middle aged mama. Its all good baby.
On our day out it absolutely chucked down in London, torrential rain, a sea of brollys, just the worst kind of tourist weather
really but the one thing about my family is that they will not be put off
course, so despite probably needing a canoe we braved Winter Wonderland at Hyde
park and it was brilliant.

| Winter Wonderland-just pure festive tackiness (I loved it) |
If you need a fix of pure festive cheer I can not recommend it highly enough. Its got a fun fair, stalls, a German bierkeller, little ski lodges selling mulled wine (which we of course partook in, to keep us warm) and just oodles of Christmas inspired tackiness. I loved it.

After a few hours we were thoroughly drenched so went to see
the latest Hunger Games film (amazing) and then wandered up Oxford street and
Regent street, just being totally blown away by the gorgeous Christmas lights.
Nowhere does Christmas like London. Its simply magical.

| Its Paddington |
Highlights for me included hunting out all the Paddington
bears dotted around,seeing Nicky Rockets being like a kid in a candy store in
the Johnny Cupcakes tee-shirt store and the perfection of the creations at choccywoccydoodah
Probably my all time “holidays are coming” moment was taking in the window displays at Selfridges. I was just totally blown away and despite the rain running down my neck, and the people treading on my toes was filled with childlike wonder. Those window dressers are wizards.

I am homeward bound now-tired, emotional with rain in my
shoes and a hankering to dig out my Christmas decorations and spray everything
with glitter. London you sexy bitch, you have put the jingle in my bells.
