Breakfast at Le Pain Quotidien

Hello!
So last Saturday I went with my Mum to a french resturant which was absolutely divine, the restaurant's scenrey made me feel as if i was actually in France which if you know me would be an absolute dream, but Le Pain Quotidien was the closest thing could get to France..
In Le Pain they serve a wide selection of breakfast foods which they are actually very known for, they have a wide selection of breakfast foods from every bread you can possibly think of all the way to any omlete you fancy, they have oatmeal and almost every thing there is organic which made it great for a girl who would like to stay away from her refined sugars and avoid the extra unnesscary ingredients!











The food there was amazing, I ordered a omelet with cheese (which was a bit too big) and a latte but the latte was too strong for my liking and they didn't have any flavored ones so that was the only disappointment I had, other than that the restaurant was amazing!




Over-all rate; 8.5/10

ZARA, H&M, MANGO AND EXPRESS HAUL

Hello!
As promised I have made my very first haul post which I am very excited about, I haven't bought a lot but what I bought I was very happy with and instead of buying everything that was on sale I treated the store as my closet and was picking out something to wear, which helped. A lot.
Unfortunately didn't find a coat, the coat I wanted in ZARA wasn't there in my size and the one in MANGO was too expensive and wasn't very good quality as buttons did start to fall out...
I bought a bag from ZARA which is absolutely to die for, it matches with everything and it looks so travel-y; I can just imagine myself jet-setting off to paris with *sigh*.
I got 3 Shirt from MANGO, all black and white which I though was better than buying them in certain colours like pink where it wouldn't go with everything but I the shirt I bought were very summer-y and I was suppose to be shopping for winter clothes (Oops..)
I bought a sweater with gold detailing from H&M which I love and fits perfectly, and it was the only thing I found quite decent there, everything was too flashy or in bad quality to be honest..
Lastly I bough a lace dress from EXPRESS, which is absolutely gorgeous it was quite expensive but worth it because if I didn't know any better I would think its from a high end boutique!
Thank you for reading!

COATS

I think every girl has gone through the dilemma of picking between coats, at least I know I have; and can I say it is just one big hassle: trying to see if they fit right, are they the right color, quality, size and most importantly  "will it look good?"
Im heading over to the mall soon to scoop up a new coat even though were I live it still feels like its 28 degrees (Celsius!) outside, some people say that its going to get colder hopefully, I've stalked ZARA's website for the past couple of days trying to find the perfect coat and when I go to the store I'll try it on and make a final decision!
PROS;      
  • its black so it'll probably go with everything
  • much cheaper than the other coat only $137 
  • Its lands on my knees  

  • PROS: Such an amazing and interesting design and color
  • CONS: It may be quite short
  • It is a lot more expensive than the Black flared one by being  $160
Hopefully my next post will be a haul, and youll get to see which coat i took, so stay tuned!

Shoe Collection: Flats!

Hello!
I have over the past year and a half collected a lot of flats and my collection is still expanding (Oops..).
My favourite brand that I often buy from is Sam Eledman, I have maybe a pair or 2 from different shops but Sam Edelman's flats just make me feel like I walking on a cloud because of the little cushions, they put inside- which make flats 10 times more comfortable and not to mention tolerable!

From Pedro, got this a while ago and cant find the retail price,  sorry!

From ZARA, for about $53

Sam Edelman *swoon* each about $90

Sam Edelmans "Felcia" for about $77


Chanel *swoon again* I got this as a gift so im not sure how much it is
Over all collection!
