Ah, what a month! Between a new mantra, adventures in London, new home purchases and a new hairdo, it was a fun yet productive month. Here are a few highlights of what I got up to!

One of my geeky pleasures is testing new skincare. With so many new products constantly coming out, it’s easy to get FOMO when it comes to your skincare regime and ensuring that you are using the best products for your skin. I recently discovered the Murad Advanced Active Radiance Serum and wanted to share my honest review of the product. Full disclosure: I purchased this product myself.
Every year, London Parks & Gardens Trust hosts a special event called the Open Garden Squares Weekend. During this weekend, you can buy a ticket and explore private gardens throughout the city. These gardens range from beautiful squares to office buildings and a few historic landmarks. As someone who loves parks and gardens, I could not resist the opportunity to peek into some of London’s hidden gardens. Here are the highlights from my day, plus tips on how to make the most of your Open Garden Squares Weekend!
Time for another wardrobe refresh – this time in the name of Spring/Summer! I spent nearly £200 at H&M in London. I ended up keeping about £130 of it and scored some really lovely new pieces. Naturally, I couldn’t resist sharing my fab finds with you too – you’ll see in this post the photos and a mini review below. I’ve also embedded my try on YouTube haul at the end of the post if you want to see in more detail what the clothes look like on me. I’m still getting the hang of these – I definitely need to amp up the energy next time, but that’s part of the process – with each video I keep learning!

New On My London Guide: 108 Marylebone, Fucina, Daphne’s, Mazi, The Bluebird
As someone who loves catching up with friends over a good meal or an innovative cocktail, London has no shortage of wonderful places to visit (and re-visit)! If you’re new to The SavvyBostonian Blog, I keep a massive London Guide which links to allllll of my recommended places in London. From restaurants to places to excellent cocktails, things to do and more, I’ve got you covered. For my latest additions to my London Guide, I’m adding my favorite Marylebone anytime spot, two fabulous Italian restaurants with very different vibes, an incredible Greek restaurant and a trendy Chelsea spot made famous by a certain reality TV show. Read on – but be warned, the food photos will make you hungry!
