After the whirlwind of the past fortnight, this week has been a bit of a… OK not ‘downer’ as such… but just, you know, a very normal one. Getting back from a long trip away invariably means that you have a mountain of work to climb when you return (and emails ahhh so many emails!) so in all honestly I haven’t done much except playing hostage to my computer and make grilled cheese sandwiches for tea (domestic goddess? oh yes!)

This week may not have been a red letter one, but it’s still important to see the small things that are there to make us smile…

♥ long phone convos with my bffs ♥ being proud of my friends ♥ excitable emails from the made u look girls about the nyc shoot results ♥ constantly tweeting, emailing and harassing Gala (and vice versa) aaah I miss ya girl! ♥ Gareth’s honestly ♥ new mac purchases ♥ pink eyebrows ♥ kittens!! ♥ grilled cheese ♥ shopping sprees (for him!) ♥ instagram memories ♥ sushi dates…with myself! ♥ designing new shoes ♥ submitting my first book foreward ♥ pre-skype nerves ♥ organising a new workshop date! ♥ getting a new copy of Exposed magazine and reading it again, cover to cover (thank you Jasmine!!) ♥ making plans to visit my girls ♥ postsecret ted talk ♥ ordering the best phone case ever (can’t wait to show you) ♥ getting recognised and chatting to blog readers (twice in one day!) ♥ charity lipsticks ♥ fish n chips ♥ sleep…zzzz ♥

So this week may not have been as exciting as some I’ve had recently, but hell, there’s still a lot of stuff to to grateful for. I’d love to know what you’ve been lovin’ this week too…
