HR2 invited a bunch of her girlfriends to head to her neck of the woods, wearing their favorite dresses and heels - then it's off to sip Cosmos and watch the S&C movie. This is as close as I get to home right now, so I kinda need this. I know I have less then 2 weeks left of my year long stay in London but I'm not going to lie, when S&C comes on TV here I get a little weepy eyed.
I pretty much live on Cosmos back home (not so much the heels and dresses), as I don't really like beer and the wine is usually served from a box I have no other choice right? And for some reason cocktails are what NYC does best. It's odd but there you have it. Here in London it is so much a beer culture that I've gotten into wine. At least they carry a variety of wine, in actual bottles, cork and all - unlike my local Brooklyn bar that I swear grabbed a large jug and poured me a glass. In retrospect at least it wasn't in a pint glass.
The sad news is I don't have any heels or dresses with me. Anything that resembled the dress code I brought back home on spring break and left only sweats, some jeans and t-shirts. So today I wandered about Angel, in all the second hand - antique stores looking for something I could pull off, while in one shop some shop girl was going on about S&C to her coworker, spoiling the whole movie! I wanted to scream at her to shut her mouth but I just hummed to myself instead. Guilty pleasures don't come often so when they do I like to see them unspoiled.
Maybe just to spite her I looked and pulled, touched and fiddled with everything I saw in the store - without making a purchase. Ha! So there.
Then again I still have nothing to wear now. I think maybe that one back fired on me. I do have my 'skinny Sarah Jessica' black jeans from the gap with me though. That counts. Right? No heels though. Guess I'll be the Butch one of the ultra girlie group tomorrow- oh I'll be Miranda! Hurrah! Problem solved.
Toast to my faboo Sunday!
UPDATE: (So I put something together - it was fun but the Cosmo's were the smallest in the world - as my facial expression clearly points out. Still I had no problem spilling half of it on my dress right after this was taken)
