On Saturday 22 May 2010, I turned 24. Happy birthday to me! To celebrate me and my birth, the Boyfriend and I had a night out in Kings Cross: piles of Spanish tapas and tempranillo at Kika (I cannot recommend that place enough) and cocktails with a view at the rooftop bar of the Kings Cross Hotel.


I wear a lot of men’s tshirts. I’m an XL or XXL in women’s tees and they always fall too short on my torso, whereas I’m a M in men’s tees and they generally fit like a dream. This PLUR-esque tee by Religion was a perfect addition to my wardrobe.


Jacket: LA Vintage
Men’s tshirt: Religion from Asos
Skirt: Supre
Bag: Asos
Tights: We Love Colors
Socks: Holeproof
Boots: Dr Martens

Happy Birthday to you, and many many happy returns! <3
Happy birthday, girl. That outfit is fantastic, and it sounds like you had a great, great night.
Happy Birthday.
You always look great.
Happy Belated Birthday!
Happy birthday! I wish you a lot of joy in your new year!
Your bag is a pineapple. My mind has been blown. IT’S A PINEAPPLE!
Happy Birthday Frances.
I KNOW. Isn’t it the best bag ever?! I missed out buying on an equally kitschy parrot bag a few months ago (seen on a wonderful fat Finnish blogger here), so when I saw the pineapple I pounced. It’s so fantastic.
You are so adorable!! Happy belated birthday!!
Happy Birthday Frances!
I LOVE your blog!
Happy Birthday ! you looked gorgeous ! LOVE THE BAG ! x
Thanks for all the birthday wishes, everyone! x
I was going through your blog and found it really cool. You are an amazing person.
Wishing you a very happy shiny belated Birthday and a fabulous year ahead.
Thank you! x
Righteous, as always. And I’m so going to check out Kika. Thanks for the reccy, and I hope you managed to string out the birthday a few more days
I bet those Docs are fantastic for puddle jummping!
Kika is fab. Their seafood tapas is always my favourite – the best dishes we had on Saturday were ceviche and grilled cuttlefish. Deeeelish.
I’ve managed to stretch out the birthday love for over a week! Thursday: Dinner and presents with the fam. Saturday: Dinner with the Boyfriend. Monday: Cake at work. Tomorrow: Belated dinner with my best friends. I’m loving the attention.
When I’m wearing more appropriate attire (read: not white) I’ll definitely take the docs puddle jumping. (What a fabulous idea!)
I’m a bit late but belated greetings to ya and glad you had a good day!
SERIOUSLY YOU ARE ADORABLE!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Adorable I tell ya’!
Oh, thank you! x
Darn, that is a GREAT outfit! It makes me want to skip down the street.
Happy belated birthday! You look amazing, and I have those exact shoes! (And have also been wearing the heck out of mine!)
I know this is an oldish post, but damn girl, you be slamming! Talk about booty deliciousness.
great outfit! love those docs
Just wanted to say I absolutely COVET your bag, I would do almost anything for it! Keep up the good job with the blog, it’s pretty darn great.
Thank you so much! x
