links for Sunday

I've got to plan my outfits and do laundry and get stuff for work lunches - do you do all that on a Sunday?

Remember when we drank Ribena in Barbados because it was hard to find anything to drink in Barbados? It's strong stuff so we'd water it down - sometimes with gin. In London I bought Ribena Light thinking I wouldn't have to water it down. Wrong. Gosh it's strong stuff. Good ads though.

I'm not good with an umbrella partly because of my hand. A rain hat would be perfect (I hate hoods) and I love this one. Muji used to have a good one but it's gone.

Mysterious stacks of books.

I read a lot of skin-care reviews whilst I was away and had a puffy face. I've always used things I get for free from my friend at Chanel...but I think it might be time to learn what I really require to take proper care of my face. Good thing I'm going to see Poppy in few weeks. She's brilliant.

I've streamlined my makeup look. Foundation powder, bit of blush, black eyeliner, fill in brows and dark lipstick. I tried black lipstick in London but it wasn't the right formula and I'm a little bit afraid of looking like one of those old lady kooks. But very dark wine looks very good on me and I'm determined to try one of these. Probably from Sephora in Chicago!

I've just sold my bicycle. I'll probably not ride one again but look how lovely this Ikea one is.

Please can't someone paint our horribly dingy bedroom?

I've read that some people fall asleep after just a couple of minutes on this site.

Middle sat down on the airplane last week, noticed they were doing a James Bond film festival and realized he had chosen his airline wisely. Then he showed me this.

Do you know I am infatuated with sponges? Now I want these.

Happy Sunday to you.
