Rinse, repeat.

Definitely beginning to feel a little stale and repetitive, I'll try and be a bit more exciting soon. Probably not going to apologise for having obvious interests though ♥

Here is a photo of me trying to show you how cool the Barry M glitter I bought the other week is. Although you can't see it very well, I'm actually in love with it, it looks different all the time and even though it's glitter it's not too over the top. I think that should I ever need something over the top it will be a good point of call though.

This is what I wore yesterday, I love this dress but am so sad that all the beads from the neck keep falling out. Pretty glad I got it in the sale, I would be furious if I'd forked out the original £45 price tag. I really like this outfit actually, I was pretty comfy all day without the usual 'omigawd I'm so hot' episodes that often happen when going in and out of places.

As I said, I'm in need of a bit of a change of scenery but it was Vintage Flea Market time over at Spitalfields and it wasn't like I was doing anything else, so I dragged my sister along for an afternoon out.

I managed to nip into Maiden, which was lovely as usual and I spotted these cuties. There are so many adorable salt and pepper shakers around at the moment, particularly on Modcloth, but these are easily the best so far, ever. They're made by Quail Ceramics, the same company that made my pug egg cup and guinea pig money box, everything they do is good as far as I'm concerned, particularly their new goat egg cup.


Maiden is just very good, every one should pop in take a look at all the wonderful things they have to offer.


They were filming some kind of film in a café across from Boxpark, strictly no gawkers, but I managed this sneaky pap.


It was pretty important to pick up some of Cyber Candy's own-brand cola, so Boxpark was on the cards. I've only noticed the great neon underwear signs that Calvin Klein has.




We went to Square Pie for lunch, so tasty. I also loved the packaging for this milk, I'm not really a 'milk as a drink with food' person so I didn't get any, but how sweet are those cows?


We had a wander around the market, as is standard, but there was actually loads to look at that was realistic and affordable, it's just a pity that currently, affordable for me still needs to be free or not at all, but it's a bit vulgar to talk about money so I'll just show you the rest of the snaps.










This is a pretty poor photo but how cool is this vintage luggage?


Here are some cute tiny milk jugs on display in InSpitalfields.





I did manage to get my hands on a can of Cyber Candy cola by the way, it's currently sitting in the fridge though and I've yet to try it, fingers crossed that it's tasty.
It was a good Saturday afternoon, I think it's definitely time to research into other areas to explore though, everything just seems so samey.

Purchases. ♥

As I mentioned in my previous post, I bought a few of nice things on Saturday. In some ways it was a bit of a failure because I had intended to get some Christmas shopping done but it other ways it has made me see how incredibly selfish I am, which ultimately results in my happiness, so I can't complain. Who am I kidding anyway, it's years until Christmas.

The Adventures of Tom the Lion - Tom the Lion.
I'll start off with something I didn't buy. I persuaded Moon to treat himself as he is currently feeling as down about 'the job situation' as I was a few weeks ago - and undoubtedly will be feeling in a few days time. The lion is coincidental and just something I have lion lying around. As it goes, Rough Trade East know how to pick a good album of the month. I quite like it and currently have the first track on repeat on my iTunes. For the price it also came in some of the nicest CD packaging I've ever seen, bargain!
Moon's blogged about it, he can be such a hipster, I can't even.

These two critters are from Maiden, an amazing shop on Shoreditch High Street. They're made by a company called Quail, which make all kinds of other adorable ceramic animal homewares and gifts. The guinea piggy bank is life-size, so cute! It was such a tough decision to go for this pug egg cup over all the other worthy faces looking back at me, I even shunned a panda, I think additional purchases are definitely needed. However, at the same time I need to stop crowding my tiny room with things for my future house, I just don't have the space right now. :(

I'm not sure what spurred me to buy these but I picked them up at the Old Spitalfields Vintage Flea Market. The green matches are the same brand as the only tobacco that one of my uncle smokes so I thought I'd put them in a Christmas card, and get him something else, obviously. They're quite pretty though and different and I would imagine there is a chance I will need matches in my life at some point.

All Lazy Oaf Xmas Pop-up Shop -
Mittens - £1
T-shirt - £10
Tote bag - £5

If I had more money I would definitely have spent more, I'm dying to get these socks and this anorak was amazing and reduced. I did have a bit of a steal though, the mittens would have come in useful today if I had remembered to bring them, hello winter! Best £1 I've spent on an item of clothing, even if they are a little bit big, I adore the pattern and colours.

This ring is from a stall in Brick Lane market, which I have got things from before but forgotten the name of again, I was doing so well as well. I would recommend you get down there though as the jewellery they offer is much cheaper than getting it online. I also picked up my sister something that that's a secret.
What do you think of my nails, they're still here today, I like them, they remind me of Skittles.

Two days left with Ink...
