So, if you couldn't guess from my "omg scones", "omg nando's", and "omg costa" instagrams over the past few days (fyi, I did do things over than eat, but they're not worth mentioning), I took a quick trip back to the UK. Successfully surprising my mum by casually walking through the front door on Sunday evening, we spent the next day wandering round Battlesbridge, a village which is home to antiques, quaint English countryside, and one of the best presented cream teas I've ever had (and it was only £6!). A rather stark contrast to Saturday's antics which involved picnic-themed cocktails at Purl and shivering for the N550 at an hour I'd rather not think about, I like to think I had a rather well-rounded time at home, rather than spending it entirely in my pyjamas and catching up on lost sleep.

When faced with the prospect of what to bring with me to Germany, I seemed to prioritise teabags over clothes, so opening my wardrobe door was like getting an (almost) new closet. This skirt is an old favourite which hasn't made it onto the blog that often, but I paired it with my new eye-print tee which arrived on my desk the day before heading home - perfect timing! But now I've landed back in Munich, it's about time I stopped putting off heading to the shop and actually prepared for getting back into a routine tomorrow. Thank god I imported over 100 Yorkshire teabags.

There's nothing better than a lazy afternoon spent with friends in a coffee shop. One afternoon saw Rosa (who's blog is about a billion times cooler than I could ever be) and I doing just that - with a little bit of Zara on the side! As we were passing, we took outfit photos in Max-Joseph-Platz, by the National Theatre. As the vast majority of my photos are taken in a rushed lunch hour, it's rare that I'm able to find a location this beautiful within walking distance, but it does make taking photos so much more fun.

By the time you read this I should be back on British shores - I hope Nando's is ready for me. With plans varying from a night out on Baker Street to a good ol' pub quiz to brunch with the best people (i.e. Sabby and Jazmine), I really don't think I could ask for a better elongated weekend. Unless I had a weekend with optimum temperature yorkshire tea and cheese on toast. I reckon that'd be pretty good too.

Yes, you're seeing that correctly, the sunglasses are officially out. With temperatures forecast to soar to 21°C tomorrow, I think I've picked the right time to head home for a London weekend, aka wardrobe swap. I'll be sure to keep my new Little Nell Jewellery easily accessible in Munich, however, as I seem to be returning to a silver jewellery phase. When Penny asked if I'd like to try something from her shop, I gladly accepted having seen her items on plenty of my favourite bloggers, and, as stags have turned into my group's motif, I decided to select this necklace: anything with antlers goes down well in my books.

Anyway, time to dig out my oyster card and reacquaint myself with the DLR (hooray for friends who live next to the magical robot skytrain!). Now, to decide whether I need to pack tights or not...
