V&A museum

I arrived at South Kensington tube station on a rainy morning, but despite the weather place immediately to my liking. All around small cafes not overloaded with people inside, inviting at the first glance in their direction.That time, however, my feet, or rather a map on my iPhone was leading me straight to the Victoria and Albert museum. I wanted to go there a long time ago but somehow, there was no opportunity or good company...
Already from the outside the building was impressive, not to mention its interior!I was truly amazed by the countless number of galleries, exhibitions and exhibited objects from various cultures and eras. Each room was like a totally different story in which you might get lost forgetting all the rest. I spent several hours there and still did not see everything I wanted.Certainly will be back in a few months,xx.

Press days

I attended the press days in London last Tuesday. I went to The Clear Agency in Shoreditch to visit their showrooms and to see some new AW13 collections.The Clear Agency represent various cool brands such as Gina Stewart Cox, Daisy Knights, Brat & Suzie, Delicious Couture, Heart by nAna Judy, and many more.

I had a chance to take a closer look at some beautiful, luxurious pieces of jewellery.I really liked Daisy Knights watches, and the necklaces from Gina Stewart Cox!I would love to see some of those around my neck.

But above all, my favorite piece was the crossbones oversize knit sweater by Heart. I know that summer days are coming but I would want to take it home with me right away.

Heart by nAna Judy makes their debut in the UK this year.It.'s a new brand from Australia. Let's hope we will be able to purchase their edgy yet feminine clothes soon at Asos.

Chelsea

Hello!
I just got back from my holidays, and full of fresh energy I am back to blogging! I realize my blog was a little neglected lately... but soon you will see new outfit posts!
Anyway now I want to share a few pictures that I made a while ago in Chelsea...

I almost forgot about them...I did not do much when I was there...and that's only because I was very very hungry and unfortunately all I could think was food...

I was surprised that next to very expensive boutiques there are so many shops with second -hand or vintage clothing. I believe that by combining the more expensive with cheaper you can get an interesting effect.
