Birthday Blues

Ok, so I had a little attack of the birthday blues. Seriously though, I guess I felt down because I feel like I haven't achieved everything I wanted so far in my life....we all feel like that at one point or another right?
I guess the key is to remember that in life, our hopes and aspirations are not set in stone. Things change, people change....and so, plans change!
So, I didn't become a best selling author like I thought I would at age 6, and I didn't become a singing sensation like I believed I would be at age 13....or even a Doctor, as I hoped I would when I studied Medicinal Science at University. But as I said...things change.
 

I've changed, and recently I feel like I have less dreams than I did when I was younger....and even worse-I believe that as I have become older, my dreams are less obtainable. Talk about depressing!

But like the seasons, I'm hoping my sombre mood of late won't last long (and judging by the bipolar seasons here in the UK it shouldn't last more than a few hours!). So I'm taking steps to change my outlook on my future....

Although I had an attack of the blues, I did manage to have a good day, as I spent it with my main man aka my son lol.

We went to my latest favourite eatery Vapiano located on Great Portland Street. The food is amazing!-I haven't sampled everything on the menu (give me time) but I have so far loved the BBQ chicken Pizza, and the Gamberetti (prawns with linguine) I love the fact that you have a choice of pasta, and everything is cooked in front of you as you wait.
My son had a margherita pizza which they shape into a cute bunny! (at least I think it was).

We topped off our meal with two salted caramel cupcakes from Harrods which were divine!...except for the sprinkle of rocksalt on top (?!) which did nothing for the flavour!

Now the outfit-It just so happened that I decided to wear blue on that day also (purely coincidental lol).

I am still in love with these cobalt blue skinny jeans I snagged from H&M, and I decided to wear and equally bright colour on top with the sunshine yellow jumper. Usually I do make more of an effort with my birthday outfit-but as I wasn't in much of a birthday mood, and the weather was crap I decided this was enough effort. I finally got my hands on the YSL Arty ring in Lapis blue-so that cheered me up receiving that in the post on my b-day ;-)

I decided to wear my headscarf in this fashion to change it up a bit. I wore it like this for the first time while I was away in Sicily last month and I love it! I will definitely be doing it more this summer.

Although I could have a lot more at my age, I could also have a lot less....and for that reason, I am more than happy with where I am today :-)
