The Grand Opening of Eataly London

06/03/21 | Delicious Eats, London, London Eats, London Events, Lonodn

Pink Food and Beverage Options

On my long walks around London Mark and I saw more shops close down than I care to think about.  But on the other side over the course of the last year we have seen a massive store being built nearly the Liverpool Street station in East London.  Every time we went to Spitalfields Market we would check it out out.   I have been a fan of Eataly for eons as they have two locations in New York and ...

Joules Striped Dress in London

08/21/20 | Fashion Friday, joules, Kate Spade, Summer Style, Vanessa Mooney

Joules Striped Dress at London Townhouse

Not every day needs a fancy date night look, nor does every Fashion Friday, especially in the middle of the heatwave.  Sometimes a simple jersey dress and sandals will do, which is where this Joules Striped dress fits in perfectly.  We shot these photos just around the corner from my house - London Town houses make the best backdrops but grey days with shifting light, on the other hand, ...

Red Dress on the London Canals

07/10/20 | Fashion Friday, Ferragamo, Fitbit, John Lewis, Kiss Products, London Canals, Shopbop, Summer Style

Red Linen Dress with Black Leather Nadia Belt 

Many people have bene asking Mark and I if we are board during lockdown and believe it or not, my to-do list is bigger than ever.  Sure, some of that might have to do with wedding planning and needing to reschedule our Fall trip but even with that aside, we have been keeping very busy!  Now that we are allowed to drive places on weekends we have been taking trips to spots like the Seven ...

Loving London in my Fleur Georgette Dress

05/29/20 | Charlotte Tilbury, Fashion Friday, French Connection, Kate Spade, Kiss Products, Spring Style, Stuart Weitzman

French Connection Fleur Georgette Dress

It is true, recently I have been loving London.  Maybe because we have not had a true rainy day in weeks, maybe because the restructions of COVID are slowly being lifted here in the UK, or maybe because I really like the balcony space of my new flat but whatever the reason, London and I are having a moment.  And for the girl who is used to filling up passports that is a good thing because it is ...

5 Things I Have Started Doing Since London Lockdown

05/11/20 | Life Update, London, London Lockdown

London Lockdown - Empty Trafalgar Square

This is a weird time and I mentioned that I am trying to keep both Sparkles and Shoes and my social media positive so instead of complaining or being annoyed about all of the things I can not do during this time, I wanted to share some new things I have started doing since I have been at home:  1 | Started Gardening: With my new flat this was on my list but when work sent around a discount ...

Dalmatian Print Blouse in London

05/01/20 | Fashion Friday, Kate Spade, Kiss Products, Spanx, Spring Style, Vince Camuto

London Blogger in Dalmatian Print Blouse

Happy First Day of May!  I am actually really pleased with how the first batch of our quarantine photos turned out (when I was in these houndstooth trousers) and this second round that we shot 20 minutes later on Easter weekend are not half bad either.   I recently got this  and wanted to make sure I shared it here on Sparkles and Shoes while it is still in stock in every size!  It has more than ...
