My two weeks leave has officially begun. I decided to start my day with an energising breakfast and I have to say that it was berry-tasty. I tried an acai bowl for the first time, not surprised that it was super good. Quite frankly, you can't really go wrong when it comes to smoothie bowls, the toppings are endless and pretty much delicious as a single ingredient, let alone when you combine them together. I decided to top mine with granola and a berry medley, mixed with 100gr acai sachet, x1 frozen banana plus mango and apple juice. Note to self: next time you make a smoothie bowl make sure to have a decent sized bowl, it might not show on the picture but this was actually smaller in size to the normal standard cereal bowls and well despite it looking cuter, it surely was messier. (Yep, you guessed right I spilled quite a bit on my lace table cloth.)

I'm on stop leave in the coming month and that results in me having to celebrate Christmas with my family early, next Friday kinda early. As on Monday I fly to Malta - I only have the weekend to get some 'typical last minute' Christmas Shopping done and to just kick back and relax slightly before I'm on island time. I decided to meet Tom on his work lunch before I stroll the shops. This is what I decided to wear to sport an effortless look yet still look remotely chic.

I told you this wouldn't be the last of my beanie hat, due to its seasonal patterns I am excused to wear it all throughout the Christmas festivities. If I'm honest this is my boyfriend's, I have a tendency to nick his clothes. Also, working at ZARA I own a lot of ZARA clothing so I'm not sponsoring them, I just genuinely give them back quarter of my salary each month. I will link the items that are still available below. (Excuse my tired face I am ready for an afternoon nap so it seems!)

We decided to try the Cheeky Pea Hummus Bar for lunch, and my was it good, I took their falafel wrap & it was so lovely and crispy, I'm drooling at the thought of it. I included some lemon & coriander hummus to mine and this just made the dish even more delicious, it costs £5.50 which comparing to other market places there is not much difference, this is very filling and keeps you going, so in a way the £5 can contribute towards a satisfying meal! I'm not vegan - I just seem to eat like one most days.  I just like to eat healthy and enjoy what's on my plate & I genuinely just enjoy most vegetarian dishes, if you do too then I highly recommend you try this place based in Kingston. I followed lunch with a warm soya cappuccino from Pret a Manger, I don't even know why they ask me if I want chocolate sprinkles on top .. of course I do - who doesn't?

The rest of my day is going to be pretty basic - I need to clear up a few things whilst I start packing slowly. I don't know about you but I prefer to pack than unpack a suitcase!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend and see you in Malta!
