Afternoon Tea and a British Bulldog

Saturday I headed up to Goodge Street Station to meet my Aunty for Afternoon Tea. So after a brief browse round the beautiful boutiques (I'm definitely coming back here with money haha) we made our way to the Charlotte Street Hotel.

First of all, I wanted to steal the pretty little tea sets (unfortunately my bag was too small booo), second of all the English Rose Cocktail is AMAZING - 'Fresh Strawberries, shaken with strawberry and rose syrup, topped with rosé Champagne' - I felt like a proper 'Lady' for a few hours (I don't even think I lasted that long to be honest hehehe). Thirdly, get the Bloomsbury Afternoon Tea. So Good! And last but not least, when looking for the ladies, don't walk into the gym like I did - makes you feel VERY guilty about stuffing your face with cake and cocktails!

I am definitely coming back for another Afternoon Tea, followed by shopping in the boutiques when I have just been paid! I feel a girls day out brewing...

We then headed to Liberty's. No reason. But its Liberty's. You kind of have to go don't you? Again, I'm coming back for a proper look because my goodness I want the shop. 

Sunday we took my Aunty and Uncle's British Bulldog Alfie for a walk round Hampstead Heath (so pretty) and then a trip to a cute little book shop (I absolutely love old book stores) where I found Alexa Chung's book It - and of course, had to buy It.

This weekend has taught me the importance of getting an British Bulldog. Do you know how many people stopped to coo over Alfie? LOADS. I need one!

As much as I love travelling to different countries, it becomes easy to forget London is such a beautiful city and I love how you can find cute shops tucked away down a quiet cobbled street easy to miss. I'm making a promise to myself that this year I need to explore London more.
