I present you with my fairly unfocused photos of Hyde Park's Winter Wonderland courtesy of cramped proxemics and my Samsung Galaxy S2. Yes, if there's one place in the UK that allows you to escape to the magical surroundings of snow-filled Christmas festivities then it's central London. All joking aside, it was a fun Saturday afternoon with my brother and if you exchange the masses of people with snow then you could maybe be mistaken for wondering through a Lapland village. I say that because of the cosy cabin-like stools selling gifts, handmade crafts, sweets, mulled wine and hot cider, their structure reminiscent of those found in a true winter's scene. With that in mind though, nothing beats the enchanting appearance of the South Bank at night (final picture below) with the lighting seeming even prettier this time of the year.
Keeping with the theme, who is yet to see blonde beauty Kate Bosworth performing Winter Wonderland exclusively for Topshop? The single is available to buy on Itunes now but in the meantime you could always watch the short clip below and leave the soothing vocals guide you into a peaceful daydream.
