Restaurant review: CHARING CROSS THEATRE PLAYERS BAR AND KITCHEN (Charing Cross)

Adjoined to the theatre is a place where you can treat yourself to a few pre-match snacks and drinks. The bar is very dimly lit, too much so, perhaps, but in doing so, the place does have some ambience, I’ll give it that. And, despite the modest size and set-up of the bar, the food served was surprisingly high quality. 

For starters, I had fish dumplings. They came in dainty settings and whilst not being the most filling appetisers I had, were excellently cooked (I presume on the grill), with just the right amount of sauce accompanying it.

Product Review: CLUBBING COLOURS QUICK DRY NAIL POLISH (Miss Sporty)

I’ve developed a bit of a re-birth in my love for bright red nail polish. This is due to two things – my adoration for Vladimir Nabakov’s Lolita and Dolores wearing red polish, as well as having recently watched On the Road. I wasn’t totally enamoured with the film, but I noticed Kristen Stewart’s character wearing bright red nail varnish, and even though it was heavily chipped, just the fact that Kristen Stewart was wearing it automatically made it a fabulous colour. 

So, taking on some fashion tips from those two characters, I chased some red of my own.

Restaurant review: GBK (Covent Garden)

A colleague at work raved to be about Gourmet Burger Kitchen, and as I love a good burger (I’ve eaten three McDonald’s this week), I couldn’t wait to try the place out. However, the experience turned out to be a massive disappointment, although the quality of the burgers are the least of GBK’s problems.

Seventh heaven.

Seven delicious dishes I've had of late.

Chelsea Girl.

I went to the Bridge a couple of times over the Summer, and here were my attempts to try to ~glam up a laddish Chelsea top.

This top was from several season's ago, and pretty washed out. The hot pink jeans are from Zara (sale, £13). Scarf was from a market stall. Hair is pretty scruffy but ohwell.gif.

The scarf is a gift from an ex (awkward), he got it from Italy. Hoodie is from Sports direct, it was from like 2008 but I still wear it cos it's a nice colour (and matches Maj's gilet, haha!). Yellow bumblebee top from the  2008-2009 season (when Lampsy scored the winner for us in the FA Cup final, just reminiscin').

Bonus pic: this is my top for this season. I got Hazard on the back :p I'm kind of ecstatic in this photo.

Review of the songs in “The Break Up” (S4E4) episode of Glee.

I’ve not blogged for a while, which is naughty, but I’m going to try my best to get back into it now! Despite telling myself I wouldn’t, I got into series 4 of Glee, and some of the songs have already been stellar, so I thought I’d resurrect that thing I do where I review each song as if I know anything about music. ☺️
