I know, I know, I've been a bad blogger.
I've been ignoring you, but the last few days have been a blur of sunshine, rosé, swimming & dancing. I just haven't had the time.
Im currently sitting on my balcony watching the rain and listening to a tropical thunder storm rumble in the distance. The girls are reading so I thought I'd take the time to catch up with you.
We befriended the lovely Yelda & her gorgeous little brother, Superman.
We swam and we played.
Refusing to leave the beach, we've eaten lunch on our sunbeds every single day.
We've been drowning ourselves in rosé wine.
We met up with a few of our London girlies, grabbed a little boat and headed over to Ile St Marguerite for dinner.
It's a tiny island just off the coast of Cannes which is home to one of the most romantic restaurants I've ever been to, La Guérite.
It's nestled away in the shadow of a huge château.
The floor is soft white sand, the tables and chairs are made of drift wood and there are candles everywhere.
Miles away from all of the below...
It got our seal of approval.
The rest of our days have been spent wondering around the old part of Cannes, stopping for crepes, waffles and hot chocolates... we're never going to be able to fit onto the plane home.
We combined forces with our friends from Boston and danced until the sun came up.
Gotha is unlike any club I've ever seen.
The sound system and light shows are just mind blowing.
The company was pretty good too.
How's the real world going?
Have I missed much?

well, you shouldn't be blogging when on holiday, just enjoying yourself!
ReplyDeleteReal world stuff is just the same. Doom and gloom, but the sun is shining in England, so you'll be pleased when you return!
I love how you're so free and enjoy every opportunity life offers. Please don't lose that about yourself. By the way, you are just drop dead gorgeous and it seems like your personality is absolutely as beautiful as you are.
ReplyDeleteLots of love
xxxx
Thankyou Anon, how incredibly sweet of you! xx
DeleteLooks amazing!! Where did you met the cute seals?? They are just charming! You're still looking great after all of the crepes and chocolate.
ReplyDeletekelliessmalltownliving.blogspot.com
Ah they were just hanging around at the restaurant, sealing the show! x
DeleteRosie - I have been doing a lot of thinking and I think you should be formally addressed as Rosie THE BODY as opposed to Rosie The Londoner. Well jelly of your holiday - looks like you had a fab time.
ReplyDeleteBest

You're way too kind Morven! Thankyou x
DeleteBy the way... Is that a watermelon bikini?? Love it!
ReplyDeleteYuss! It's from Asos x
DeleteFantastic pictures, as always, you girls look gorgeous! Love your green sandals..where did you get them?? Stay in Cannes forever...the real world is not nearly as fun!
ReplyDeleterosie t!!! i think i love you, i was wondering if you could please please please help me? i just want to be like you in everyway, your looks and personality and your friend looks AMAZING! i love you
ReplyDeleteAnon you are crazy & I love you for it! x
DeleteOk, now I know I must go on holiday to Cannes! Looks like a great place!
ReplyDeleteThe one with the eyebrows is BOOM TING
ReplyDeletePreach!
Delete*Sigh*. I'm going to ask how you did your hair and your going to say "oh, I didn't do anything, I came straight out of the sea, chucked on a dress and some eyeliner and went out". I only ask because my curly hair never behaves like that, sea salt or not. Products?
ReplyDeleteOn other news, I'm pleased to report that it is, wait for it, SUNNY IN LONDON! So yes, rush home, enjoy some more sun here and resume regular blogging (for my sake and boredom).
Enjoy the rest of Cannes, lovely photos as ever.
I'll do a bit about holiday hair later in the week if you like Becca? x
DeleteI just want to share a great recipe I found to get beach hair without going to the beach.
DeleteI was very skeptical at first, because my hair is usually all kinds of frizzy, but as it turns out, it works!
So here it is, in a small spray bottle add:
- 1 tsp coarse salt (you can use regular too)
- 4 to 5 drops of oil (olive oil / jojoba oil, almond oil, whatever you want)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 tsp of your favorite conditioner
Shake the bottle well before every use and apply on towel-dried hair. Scrunch your hair with you fingers and let it dry naturally. You will get amazing beach hair. At least mine turned out nice, and it rarely behaves :) After every use I keep the bottle in the fridge so it's nice and fresh.
If you try it, let me know if it worked for you.
@Rose amazing photos as always! It looks like you had a great time there!
Rose - That would be fabulous, thank you. You ladies all looked beautiful so some tips would be great (I would like to add that your hair looked amazing with the bear dress, not that my opinion matters but I think I like your hair like that best).
DeletePhoebe - Interesting recipe, I'm writing it down now! Will definitely give it a go so thank you very much.
I LOVE the sign post. Its nice to think a place like that actually exists!
ReplyDeleteI'm from across the pond, don't even remember how I found this lovely blog to begin with, but I must say you are basically my idol. I don't think I enjoy anything more than reading about your fabulous adventures. Cannes looks amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Katie! I'm happy we found each other!
DeleteLet me know if you ever decide to make a blog of your own and I'll pop by! xx

DeleteAh Rosie, myself and my boyfriend are now all set on a holiday to Cannes next summer after seeing your posts! I also love that your friend (Phoebe?) has really statement brows - mine are full and dark but I'm fair-haired, you don't see it very often!

ReplyDeleteWhere did ?Phoebe get her white peplum skirt from?

J'adore! Just arrived in the South of France - not as glam in our small town but perfect and peaceful. Love seeing snippets of you glamorous gals doing it up right in Cannes!
ReplyDeleteYes, you missed some big tragic news from Colorado, USA
ReplyDeleteCute pictures! Looks like you're having a blast. :)
ReplyDeletexo Andrea
You are meant to experience new things on holiday, you can blog (and sleep) when you get home! Lucky thing! xx
ReplyDeleteLooks like you guys are having a fabulous time! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteDear Rosie,
ReplyDeleteAs much as I am a fan of yours - your friend in the white top / pink skirt is seriously stunning.
May I suggest devoting another section of your blog just for her...
I second that.
DeletePerhaps you should do a "meet my friend" series, detailing favourite shops, restaurants, makeup, hobbies, etc. of your nearest and dearest.
You, Rosie, will always be my #1 though!
Love the melon bikini, its very different that for sure and ooh la la those French guys at the club certainly were good company. I would prob be starimg at them the whole night.
ReplyDeleteYou will be pleased to arrive home to lovely sunshine and Olympics madness.
xoxo

The girl in the white boobtube top / also blue dress / and lastly the white dress, SHE IS SO PRETTY!!
ReplyDeleteAnd then, the guy in the purple shirt and stripy belt is so hot!
Hi Rosie, your pics are amazing as per usual, looks like you are having an amazing time! I really love reading your blog, it's so inspiring! I have started my own blog and I have a lot of posts on 'Travel' with only a few posts so far on 'Recipes' and 'Fashion'. As a result, I've got a number of followers who are male and like to travel... which was not my original target audience, i.e. meant to be girlie girls like me!... Do you have any advice on how to continue? Should I turn it into a Travel blog and start a new lifestyle blog? Or continue with other posts and not worry if the male travellers eventually stop subscribing once I stop writing about 'Travel'?
ReplyDeletePLEASE tell me you hooked up with the guy in the blue shirt! he is BOMB DIGGITTY <3
ReplyDeleteCan you pls be so kind to tell me what camera do you shot on all these amazing pictures?
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely do a pre-holiday diet plan post!! Please!!
ReplyDeleteOfficially jealous of your amazing life :) you get Cannes and I get stuck in traffic trying to get the post office lol!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had an AMAZING time. Can't wait to read your next posts (I'm currently heading backwards from your most recent lol)
Rose, I can't believe it, the pics you took in the stripy dress oon the roads, are where I stay every year, in my own small apartment! Did you stay near there? I feel so touched by fame, beautiful pics x
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!!!! I'm sort of like the asian-blogger-hippie--lover-partygirl version of you, lol. YOLO...!!! U make Cannes look so magical!
