You can shop around all day in Oxford and Regent street so that's exactly what we did. First stop was Primark which was a good idea because already a few minutes after we arrived, the store started to fill up with customers, a little to packed for us.
So after finding some fun, cheap things we moved on to Topshop, Forever 21, New Look, French Connection, Jane Norman, Aldo, Next, Zara, River Island, Uniqlo and many, many more.
In between we went to Leicester Square to see if we could get tickets for a musical for the same night, there were still several musicals available but the choice wasn't too hard: Legally Blonde!
After getting our tickets we realised it was also time to begin looking for a place to lunch, we ended up at The Long Acre where I had a beef burger and my sister a BLT sandwich.
After lunch we got back to Oxford street to shop where later we took a short break at Joe & The Juice
We continued shopping until we had to carry on towards the Savoy Theatre for Legally Blonde.
The musical was a great spin-off of the orginal first movie, just as fun a version but with more music and dance but still with our little friends Bruiser and Rufus (Paulette's dog).
Unfortunately I couldn't find any good quality videos of the musical with the cast we had, but still OMIGOD you guys!
The next day we had lunch planned at Jamie's Italian at Convent Garden, so after a goodbye visit to Hummingbird Bakery we took the underground there.
This time I chose a black bottom cupcake and coffee to go and since it was still a quiet morning, we could still make some pictures of the bakery and talk to the staff. I miss you already Hummingbird!
Naturally we did some more shopping around Covent Garden since it wasn't by far time for lunch yet, but then we ran into a dear friend.
If you suddenly see this kind of friend you can't just pass by and ignore, so we had some tea and macarons (praline and caramel).
After a while we headed to the location of the restaurant and luckily, there's no way to miss it.
We had a table in the corner of the restaurant, at the window, so there's always something to see and the style of the restaurant was exactly right for Jamie Oliver.
We started with some anipasta followed by panzerotti and risotto, sooo good!
Basically these meals would be more than enough for lunch but there is just no way you can leave Jamie's Italian or even London itself without having a taste of one of the deserts.
Good thing we chose to share a tiramisu because never in my life have I seen such a enormous piece, but it was certainly delicious. Almost like Pim's (small cookies with chocolate and orange) because of the orange zest on top!
After our amazing lunch we had to be on our way to catch a train back to the Airport to be in time. Time went by way to fast so I was sad to leave but since I love London even more now, I'll be back soon.
Love x,
Noes
