blossoming nicely in Worthing...

Today I woke up to a new and dazzling Worthing!!
The sun was blazing and in my ibuprofen-aided state I practically leapt out of bed as if I'd had actual beauty sleep (not 3 hours of drunken shut-eye after a rumbustious house-mate gathering). After being challenged by my all-male ensemble of house mates that I would NOT in fact be able to get ready in time for a much anticipated/needed breakfast, I decided on this little floral number and ribbon edged socks combo. Toughened up with military ankle-boots
(of course)

After breakfast we headed down to the pier and came across an outdoor market with people selling their various trinkets and trades of choice. The lovely lady below was just calling
out for me to take a photo of her...


Loved her cute little display....its was like I was taking a little peek into her home

'LOOK' at me look magazine!


OMG! Yes!!
I was left a very formal sounding answering machine message 2 days ago from a 'LOOK magazine employee saying that I had won two tickets to 'The LOOK show'.
After its hugely successful debut last season, featuring supermodel Erin O’Connor, the trend-setting LOOK Show returns (and after ringing up to check it wasn't some sort of hoax...) I shall be there to enjoy, marvel and report on it....wooo!


The fashion showcase of the latest collections from the high street’s most iconic brands takes place on Friday 17th September during London Fashion week!!
Can't wait!

Notting Hill...home of Caribbean 'crunk'

End of August Bank holiday I headed to 'The Big Smoke' for the weekend. Swapping local beer festivals for Caribbean cuisine and street-side
mojitos.
Costumes= extraordinary
Atmosphere= AMAZING!!
The Notting Hill carnival is the largest festival celebration of it's kind in Europe. 20 miles of West London streets came alive with the most vibrant smells and sounds that i have ever encountered in the UK. With over 1 million carnival revellers the atmosphere blew me away.


Rooftop parties on every corner
and Caribbean street music and pavement disco-techs filled the overflowing streets.

Favourite spot of the day...khaki satchel worn by a carnival reveller on the tube
