Answering your questions...

I was tagged a little while ago by Pretty Young Thing, and after that, several people asked me to answer the same questions, so even though I don't normally do "tags", today I thought what the heck, it is Monday, let's do it. I am wild like that.

I have to apologise to those of you I didn't link to if you sent me the same tag, I just couldn't find the comments anymore!

What is your current obsession?

Fashion wise, it has to be shorts and playsuits (and rompers) at the moment. But it often varies.
As for the rest, my current obsession is undoubtedly travelling and seeing as much of this planet as I can before I die. I am going to Stockholm in 2 weeks and I am very excited about it, as it is one of my top 5 cities.

Good coffee place?

I don't really drink coffee very often, I am more of a tea person. I like the tea in Peyton & Byrne. I am not extremely picky apart from that. I just enjoy anywhere I can sit outside and look at people while drinking a cup of tea.

Do you nap a lot?

I would love to, but I am not really one for power naps. If I do nap, I end up sleeping for 2 or 3 hours, so I don't nap. I am also always busy working, looking after my daughter and doing various other things, so I can't really nap at all!

Who was the last person you hugged?

My daughter, she is really into cuddles at the moment, so that's pretty good.

What’s your favorite dinner?

I love grilled salt & pepper pork chops from this little Chinese restaurant near my mum's flat in Paris. Whenever I go to Paris to visit, I make sure I have dinner there at least once!

What was the last thing you bought?

Some stationery. Princess Poochie and I recently became penpals, and I realised I didn't have any nice letter paper to reply to her!

What are you listening to right now?

Cars in the street outside & sleepy bébé.

What is your favorite weather?

Hot Spring. Light breeze, blossoms in the trees. Blue sky with a few fluffy clouds.

What’s in your bathroom cabinet?

I only keep spare products in my bathroom cabinet, as well as cleaning products. The interesting stuff is on my dressing table, in my room.

What is your favorite tea flavor?

I like simple English breakfast with milk, no sugar. Thanks.

What did you want to become as a child?

A vet till I was about 8, and then a writer or a journalist. I ticked that box on my list.

What do you miss?

My Parisian friends, sunny weather (you know, like back in the days, where there still were seasons?), having a garden or a balcony.

What’s your favorite brand of jeans?

I don't really care about brands for any clothing, so that goes for jeans too. I don't wear jeans a lot either, so I tend to go for cheap ones that look good on me! The one pair of jeans I wear are from Primark and cost me £8.

What designer piece of clothing would you most like to own (new or vintage)?

New, I'd happily take anything from Luella's most recent collection. And vintage... it is hard to say, but a 50's day dress or two would be nice!

If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?

Los Angeles. Although I would probably want to stay for longer than an hour.

Who do you want to meet in person?

David Bowie please.

What is your most challenging goal right now?

To carry on writing this blog, while writing a book and starting a business... and looking after a toddler. My life is a challenging goal at the moment.

What’s your 5 year plan? (summarised)

I don't really have a 5 year plan. As cheesy as it may sound, I am definitely a Carpe Diem type person. So far, so good using that motto as well.

Since I have been receiving a few other unrelated questions, I was thinking of doing a FAQ as well as just replying to this tag. What do you think? Do you want one? Do you have questions? Now is the time to ask!

    I'm pretty shocked and can't believe that you have kids. I then checked your profile and am even more shocked to learn that you're 30. 30's not old, mind you. What shocking is that you look 18!
    What is your secret?

  9. Princess Poochie - I posted your letter today actually!

    Sophie - Tu as la réponse maintenant!

    Tea & Cake - Drop me an email, I will tell you what I can!

    E.K - Bowie... and the WIMMERS was the full answer.

    Puglyfeet - Yes, I am a 30 year old mother! Crazy eh? Sometimes even I don't realise it. I have no secret... Just not too much make up and every day moisturizer. I might write a post about skincare!

    Pangea - I don't think my style is dirty rock at all. And you probably want to rethink that link sharing of yours ;-) a bit in your face, non?

    In Bug's drawers - Thank you, welcome! I will go have a look at your site now.

    Wendy B - I think 5 year plans only bring disappointment. I'd rather have no expectations and happy surprises.

    Pretty Young Thing - A book about vintage fashion... I can't say more a this stage. hush hush.
