Renegade Craft Fair London

One awesome thing about living in London now is having access to more events. I've been wanting to go to the Renegade craft fair for years!

So last Saturday I dragged the grumbling bf to get some Christmas shopping done. 

Now are you ready for a photo-bomb of my favourite things I saw?

Can't remember whose stand this belongs to but it's pretty neat.

All of my money disappeared. But my Christmas shopping has begun!

Have you ever been to the Renegade craft fair?

Outfit Post: Hello Sailor!

Rather than jumping straight into a catch-up post, I have decided to ease you in with an outfit post. Which I have to add is my first outfit post on my new (yes I'm still calling it new) camera!

I'm currently on holiday in Jordan visiting my family so I have to dress modestly and yet still keep cool as it is friggin hot here!

Blouse: Love culture - bought in USA
Maxi skirt: Next
Belt: My mum's (I always forget something when I pack!)
Earrings: Forever 21

I am in love with this blouse. I bought it while I was in Florida earlier this year. It's perfect for just throwing on with skinny jeans or tucking into a skirt. Plus the print is so kitsch. Now that it's gotten warmer, I dress it up for work. This maxi skirt is also a work and casual staple for me. I had been wanting to find a pleated maxi skirt for so long and this one is even more versatile since it has the shorter skirt underneath. The best thing about it is that the under skirt isn't too short for me. The majority of the maxi's I've seen in this style have a ridiculously short underskirt which isn't my cup of tea at all. 

As for my nails, I actually did them the night before we flew over here. I couldn't decide on spots or stripes so I did a little of both. It turned out pretty well - especially the stripes. This colour is such a nice shade. You can't really tell in the photo but it's like a champagne colour. And even better for my impatient nature with nails - it dried in an instant. I really need to start writing down the nail polishes I use when I do these posts. I left this bottle at home I think, so if you happen to be curious what shade it is, I will gladly tell you when I return to England. 

Anyway, there's plenty of fun posts coming up as I've been having quite the vintage adventure while I've been here in Amman. Plus I'll have to do a quick catch-up in photos as well. 

How has the past couple of weeks been for you?

Top picks: week 11

Just a few things I've seen this week. I'm trying to find myself more of a summery work wardrobe so I feel a bit more comfortable in the office. I'm either boiling or freezing because of the AC.

This robot shirt from Zara must be made mine! The print is so awesome. It's the kind of print that would make a lot of people I know question my sanity but I don't give a damn. Plus a sheer top will keep me cool. Therefore I deem it a sensible purchase. 

I also picked the printed trousers as I'm definitely considering getting a pair. I usually shy away from printed trousers, but I need something that will both cover me up and keep me cool. They seem like a great way to brighten up an outfit. I just need to work on finding the right shape. These wide leg trousers are a shape I now suits me so they would be a great place to start.

Speaking of getting out of my comfort zone, how pretty is this pastel shirt? It's so pretty I think I might even go as far to try it on! I really didn't think pastels suited me but my gingerbread man dress opened my eyes to pastels. I'll give them a chance. 

What styles are out of your comfort zone?

The adventures of Charles the unimpressed robot

Just a quick one today. A couple of my doodles recently.

Charles made a friend.

Lot's of friends!

Drawing is very therapeutic for me at the moment, especially with work being hectic. I missed drawing, I used to always be doodling while I was at school (usually during lessons!).

What is your therapy?
