Hello! I went shopping in Portobello Market to celebrate my 16th birthday which was on the 6th June! And I spent all my birthday money aha, it was great! Me and my best friend went up there on the 11th June and had a blast, the weather was lovely and sunny also and I found the most amazing items.

Things I bought:

Vintage Ralph Lauren denim shirt • 2 vintage silk shirts • vintage denim Levi shorts • 2 vintage bags • long black with red roses vintage skirt • MARY-KATE OLSEN tee!!! • heart shaped red sunglasses • black tights with cats on them - super cute.

Afterwards we went up to Oxford Street but by then I had no money so couldn't buy anything else, but it was nice to look around... and watch my friend buy stuff...!

I'm nearly done with school for good now, only one more exam to go, whoo! Which is on 20th, then I am free! Bring on Summer baby. Also, I'm going to a Kaiser Cheifs gig in Camden Highstreet on Thursday, pretty excited for that! Will take pictures! ;-)

Love .x.x.x

So as you may have seen in my last post I had gone to Camden for some well needed shopping! I promised to show you the items I bought so here they are. Apart from my hoodie, everything else is vintage. The shirt and jumper I bought in a popular shop in Camden called Rokit. The shorts I don't remember the name of the store, but it was amazing inside! They had great costumes, satchel bags, other bags, shoes... everything. And there was this rale of shorts all for £10! So I bought 2 :) They are lovely and I find myself wearing them so often!

I also bought these sort of tights but I couldn't find them to take a photo with, oops.
So here's some I found the same online:

9th April 2011

Shirt from H&M, skirt from Primark, tights from Primark, bag off eBay,

necklace from Topshop, ring from Claire's (I think!), bracelets from Primark
[I also wore my Urban Outfitters silver shoes & some glittery black socks but you can't see them here]

Me with my mums Canon AE-1 she's letting me use! <3 (((Photos to come!)))

I WENT TO CAMDEN YESTERDAY!
Bought some lovely lovely lovely stuff which I shall post in my next post when I've taken some photos of it all... But yeah, as you can see, I got some items in ROKIT! It's a popular vintage store in Camden. I bought a jumper which is burgundy red with a cool design on it (don't know how to explain) and I also got a lilac shirt which was in the sale for £5 :)
We went around loads of the cool shops and the markets and looked in the awesome Cyberdog, it's so crazy in there, aha.
We went into more vintage stores and there was this one were they had many vintage shorts all £10 each, a lot of them were small sizes so I was pleased because the ones I wanted fitted me greatly. They are both sort of high-waisted, one is a light blue denim and the other is a slightly faded black denim.
I also got a American Apparel look-alike hoodie, burgundy red also, for £30. It was cheaper than buying one in AA as the ones in there are £40+ so at least I saved a tenner. I bought it in size large as when I went back for it someone had bought the medium I was going to buy and they only had XS and L & XXL... but I'm sort of glad it's a large as I can pull the sleeves over my hands when it's cold and it's really snug.
Oh and I also got some tights like these ones, (middle girl). I fell in love with them when I first saw them shown in an Olsenboye ad and then seeing them in Topshop after but I always waited to see them cheaper so the ones I finally got were £8... not too bad.
Also! You many have noticed I have 'dip-dyed' my hair, it's only done with a spray on so it's not permanent but I felt like trying it out because I just love this style! I bought mine from Superdrug for £3.

Thanks for reading, it's now my Easter Holidays so hopefully there will be more frequent outfit posts for you all!
Much love, Isabella XOXO

Todays Outfit & Day Out

Today me and my friend went to Madame Tussaudes, it was such fun! Really great. For those of you who don't know it's a place where they have wax figures of celebrities. But not only that, they also had a little taxi ride thing where it takes you round the dome (we think) and it just shows you lots of British things. There was also a place a bit like London Dungeons in there with live actors and things, was pretty scary.

Here's me with Kate Moss !



After that we made our way to Regions Park which was near. It was beautiful! And huge. There were gorgeous fountains and trees and flowers.

The weather was lovely so I wore my shades.

TODAYS OUTFIT + TODAYS DAY

Today I met up with my friend Sarah who I only just met (in person) yesturday. We met on Twitter back in September 2009 and we are both totally obsessed with the Olsens. Anyway! We went to London together, I would upload more photos but the uploader isn't working too well so 2 will have to do for now, maybe I'll add more to this post when it lets me more easily. So, we first went on the London Eye, it was both our first times on it. I admit, I was a little scared about the height at first but once I was at the top everything was perfectly fine. Unfortunatly the weather started off nice but when we were at the London Eye it was grim and there were slight drops of rain at times - but nothing drastic. After that we went to Oxford Street and looked around the shops, went looking for Elizabeth and James in Selfridges but unfortuantly they don't do it anymore! Bummer. :( After Oxford Street we went to Trafalgar Square and also Hyde Park! As you can see, in the second picture, me (left) and Sarah are by the Peter Pan statue in Hyde Park.
MY OUTFITYou might not be able to see my outfit quite clearly here but anyway here is what I wore and were it came from: Top - Topshop Skirt - Primark Shoes - Treds Bag - TJ Hughs Pendant Watch Necklace - Topshop
