{adventures abroad} london: day three - pretty things

it was gray and gloomy when we woke up on day three of our trip and all i wanted to do was stay in bed all morning. when i finally got up and going, i headed back to south kensington to spend the day at the victoria and albert museum {A was working and i figured he wouldn't mind too much if he missed out on this incredible collection of decorative arts}. sadly for me, the fashion wing was closed, but there was more than enough amazingness to keep me busy!

after several hours at the v&a, i headed over to harrod's for even more impossibly gorgeous eye candy. from the egyptian escalator and the extensive children's floor to the designer dog boutique and the lavish cafeteria, it was overwhelming to say the least! 

thankfully, when i finally reached my breaking point, it was time to meet A and his boss for dinner.  we found a sweet little tapas restaurant around the corner from our hotel and enjoyed a quiet {and delicious} dinner before heading home in the rain.
