This could be one of my favourite outfits, chunky jumpers and tennis skirts are amazing and I think they go together really well. This week has been terrible. First of all going back to school and then I was really ill, having said that Monday was great, me and two friends (one was Esme from Esme Madeline) went to Carnaby and Regent Street and the Topshop at Oxford circus and I bought some really great stuff, I'll do a blog post on it soon. Anyway I hope you like this look and  have a great week.

China Town and Covent Garden

I love London and all the different things you'll find right next to each other and how much fun you can have there. A friend and I went to Covent Garden and china town and if you wanted to go here are some things I recommend you do.

In chinatown there are two little shops I always go to. One is a sort of mini market where there are tons of cool chinese and japenese snacks and drinks and the other is a gift/ novelty shop.

These are some really cute biscuits you can get there there also little tins of tea which have them prettiest packaging a drink in a really tumblr clear can, and a soft drink called ramune which has a little glass marble in it.

 In the main square next to the carpark there is a gift shop which sells lanterns, lucky cats, kimonos and many other chinese treats. I bought a lucky cat which was £6, but there are some smaller ones for £4, which is much cheaper than I thought they'd be and they are something really cute to take back from your day.

Slightly out of Covent garden in a small shopping mall there is a little shop called art box which sells cute cartoon stationary from all around the world. I bought these little stickers and covered an old phone case with them which looks really cool and quirky.

After all of this we went to covent garden and ate at shake shack. They have the best burgers ever. Ever. You order your food and then go and sit in the courtyard. The queue to order your food is really quick but sometimes you have to wait a bit to get a table as it gets quite busy, we went at 12:30/1 ish and we got a table really quickly, but when we left the queues for everything were pretty big. 

After this we went to all of the shops and watched some of the street performers. Around seven dials there's American apparel, urban outfitters and the vans shop, where there is a really cool graffiti wall. Most of the good shops are spread out and it's worth finding them on a map before you go. 

I hope that if any of you go to china town and covent garden you have a really great time and this post helps you. x

Autumn look book

There may only be a week until autumn officially starts, but in the fashion world it's already begun! With the jam packed style section in the Sunday Times and London Fashion Week  there's no better time to make my autumn wish list!

At autumn time I love to wear pretty dresses with tights and Doc Martens, I think it looks really pretty but not too girly and it's a great autumn staple look. 

Oversized, wooly cardigans are going to be really popular this year. They're so comfy and warm and I can't wait to get my hands on one. The only problem is they're quite expensive ( usually £50+) so you should probably just get one that you absolutely LOVE. 

Another thing I think is going to be big is basketball tops. If you pair one with a plaid tennis skirt from American Apparel a it makes a great casual, preppy look. You can buy these really cheap from New Look or a more expensive one from American Apparel, where there as a massive range of colour.

My last prediction is boyfriend jeans. For the last few years skinny jeans have been a must have, but now it's boyfriend jeans. They are really comfortable and are normally quite high waisted so you can wear some nice crop tops with them.

I hope this has helped you with your autumn looks, and soon there will be an autumn accesories blog xoxo

My autumn wardrobe

.... So far

Autumn is coming too quickly and personally, I could wait a few months before the temperature starts to drop. But what I can't wait for is seeing new ranges from my favourite shops, and double page spreads on autumn looks in magazines.

Most of my autumn clothes are from last year, but over the last couple of weeks I've had a few great additions to my autumn clothes. These are some of my favourites!
