Bedtime story - A Little Bit of Champagne Now and Then is a Good Thing

A little bit of champagne now and then is a good thing.

To be honest, being a little bit more honest after having a little bit of champagne, I recently had a very lovely experience on Great Russel Street, London.

So me and E decided to celebrate her visit last Thursday.

We bought some champagne, macaroons and sat in Covent Garden watching all the charming people.

Then E suggested we go shopping. A girl never says no to a new something, even if that's the smallest thing you could find in London.

Knowing how strict all stores are with drinks and food inside, we got to Great Russel Street before our shopping spree to finish our opened champagne bottle.

The day was great. People were smiling and the weather was nice enough to let me wear a dress. But I wasn't feeling excited. To explain how I felt, I'll quote one of my bright friends. 'You know how you feel good and positive but not as happy so you could cry out of happiness? I don't feel like that very often.' So I was feeling exactly like that - comfortable, positive but not like I had my finger tips crossing the sky.

Whilst standing there and chatting, drinking champagne, people were walking by, thinking about what work to do, books to read, lunch to have etc.

I saw one man wearing a suit, sunglasses, long coat. He seemed confident and charming but deep in his thoughts, not paying too much attention to the world around him.

So my mind and champagne's collaboration led me whispering to E:

'Woooooooah, look how perfect he is!'

E just looked, nodded and looked away.

Then, when he was already a few steps away from us, he looked back, looked me in the eyes and smiled.

I smiled back.

That smile, I know, and I just knew, there was something that made me feel happy.

At least for that time, that moment.

Hope it made him feel the same.

So,

A little bit of champagne now and then it is a good thing.

Nighty night, my sparks.

LFW: Jean-Pierre Braganza

(Style pictures)

 Prints, black, white, few other colors and I'm fascinated.

Feminine in its unfeminine way Jean-Pierre Braganza's A/W 2013 collection undoubtedly was one to remember.

'I'm obsessed with the idea that numbers and geometry have symbolic and cosmic value, with the female from being the ultimate cosmic being.'

- Jean-Pierre Braganza

Running out of my hand fingers to name all the reasons to admire this Canadian designer.

Some spare fingers, please.

Goes well with Coffee - Four Tet

I don't usually listen to this kind of music but when challenge "finish educational year, come back home for Christmas, don't give a damn about calories and enjoy mom's food" is completed I allow myself to be... well, just to be me, I suppose. I'm clichéd person sometimes and as that is admitted It seems right to discover such artist as Kieran Hebden (a.k.a Four Tet).

All informative stuff can be found here but I just adore this man for his music.

I've found him when I was looking for more creative version of Stars by The XX. To be honest, that's not my personal favorite of all his tunes but I'm definitely hooked on Four Tet and Burial collaboration's result - Nova.

My 3 last days ended this way and I think this will be no exeption. I just go to SoundCloud, type in Four Tet and play all tunes possible. Honestly fall asleep like a child!

It's Christmas break — perfect time to be honest to yourself and do whatever the hell you want.

Enjoy yourselves, beautiful people.

Cherry cherry tea and sweet sounds now.
