Calamari & cuteness overload at Columbia road

 Funny fruit stall.
 
Delicious calamari with lemon & chili sauce.
  
Spooked spoon!

Today's style point: Preppy boy

 

I should be cleaning my flat since it looks like it was hit by the blitz at the moment, but instead I'll just head out so that I don't have to deal with it. Mature problem solving.  

 Outfit rundown:
Pea coat & Pussy bow blouse ~ Uniqlo
Wool shorts ~ Benetton
Asymmetric argyle tights ~ Vivienne Westwood
Burgundy fringe loafers ~ Pull & Bear

Comfort food

I've been having a couple of low mood days, I don't feel homesick but at the same time I don't feel at home yet. I'm like a tree without roots, easy to move, unable to settle.
My best solution is, as always, to spoil myself.
Brunch with eggs Benedict at Valeries and some retail therapy might make things better.

Asian flavour

Out of pure coinsidence we stumbeled upon a Japanese festival on Trafalga square this weekend, this is what I love about living in the city, constantly new things happening! I've missed a lot of Japanese food so I took this opportunity to sattisfy some of my most pressing cravings.

A banquet of beige

A mandatory taster session of British cuisine, rather uniform in colouring.

Change of scenery

I had a bit of a mini break and took the train to Leeds this week, light shopping, food and attempted clubbing. It's my first outing since getting here and there is something about traveling by train abroad that makes me ridicilously giddy. I like the city quite a lot but I've still managed to miss London.

Brick lane

Sunday is becoming my market day, went to brick lane this week with  Imogen and indulged my foodie self with exiting and exotic snacks!
Steamed spring onion and egg dumpling.
