Buys from London

Terrible pictures, but here they are anyway.


Five dresses from Dorothy Perkins' Closet collection and one jacket from Topshop
(yes, my head is gone)

Celtic Lore & Legend + Vintage fashion

Paper dolls and an advent calendar from a store in Coven Garden
(can't remember the name, but they sold old fashioned toys)

I also bought some gifts for my family and makeup for myself

I know, I know, I know. I've been terrible keeping this blog going, and it's not getting better: my exams are coming up, so I'm reading all day long. On Sunday, I will try to take some pictures of the stuff I bought in London, but I'm reading all day long and when the evening comes, the natural light is all gone.

In some other news: I've bought myself some airplugs, and that hopefully means: a good night sleep!

Retro inspired editorials #3

Pictures of the things I've bought in London will be posted later.
In the meanwhile, here are some lovely pictures:

As some of you already know, I'm going to London tomorrow. Since I will only stay there for one and a half day, I've got some limited time to visit all the places I want to. I'm going to spend some money and do some christmas shopping, so I'm sticking to the places I know. These are the essentials:

Govent Garden market and Jubilee market
Spittalfields market and Brick Lane (Absolute Vintage)
Camden
Peter Rabbit and Friends:
christmas gifts for my nephew
Topshop:
clothes for me. I love the ground floor!
Hamleys:
more christmas gifts for my nephew
Harrods:
only a short stop to look for a gift for my mother
Waterstones:
books for me and maybe some gifts
Beyond Retro:
more clothes for me
Vivien of Holloway:
... and even more clothes for me

William

Yesterday, we celebrated sweet little William. He is my 5month-year old newphew and yesterday he had his "navnfest" (translated directly: name party). I'm not sure if it has an English name, but it's like a non-religious baptism; a humanistic celebration of the child and the giving of his name.


with his parents

the happiest and most charming kid in the world

... and he loves his mommy
