Hello friends. It's Friday! Hurrah! This week's been a bit mad so I lost all concept of time and kept asking people what they were doing with their weekend on Tuesday (really) but I'm almost 99% sure it's Friday and I'm feeling good about it.

I was down in London at the beginning of the week for the launch of the Balmain x Specsavers range, wait till you see it! If you're a glasses wearer (or even if you're not a glasses wearer, I won't tell anyone) you're going to love it, it's so different to any range I've seen before and every single pair is v v cool. I've got a wee charity ball this Saturday, which I'll tell you more about soon, and then the Scottish Baftas on Sunday which I'm thinking is when me and James McAvoy will become best friends. I've got my friendship bracelets in my clutch ready and waiting anyway. And then on Tuesday I'm off to Iceland, hurrah! You may or may not remember - it depends how long you've been reading and how good a memory you have - but I went a few years ago and it was one of my favourite trips I've been on (people very quickly tired of my 'Iceland this' and 'Iceland that' stories but GUESS WHO'S BACK WITH MORE GUYS) and I'm so excited to go back! It's looking like it'll be roughly -1 the entire week, which is cold even by Scottish standards, so the plan is to wear everything I own all at once*. So, yes, an exciting week, but the one downside is that I've really struggled to fit in Stranger Things time which is a sad admission. I'm still only on episode two... tragic, isn't it?

Anyway, the outfit! Some more snaps taken by my wee Michaela T down in London town. It's a very... stripy outfit but I love it. The trousers aren't to everyone's taste - someone on Instagram literally just commented 'awful trousers' which made me laugh/cry a little inside - but I love um. I'd originally planned to wear them with a black t shirt but then I found this wee cropped jumper in my wardrobe from last year and thought, 'why not'. However, the main talking piece here is the hat, the glorious hat. I'm a huge, huge fan of Tommy Hilfiger anyway and the hat did not disappoint. Plus it gives me at least an extra inch in height which is always welcome.

Ok I'm off. I have an hour to play with and I can either use it to hoover or to watch Stranger Things. I think we know what it'll be (sorry Henry).
