Graffiti is all over London AGAIN

Graffiti is popping up all over London again , this time not ON the shops but IN the shops . Graffitied items of clothing are a rising trend and you can buy it in high fashion shops from  Topshop to All Saints to New Look.

And so toady  I went for lunch with my wonderful cousins and decided to embrace this trend with a rather eye catching graffiti skirt from a little boutique in Cheltnam (as seen in my last post of buys of the week ) .

I wore with it a black crop top and black tights , some ballet pumps and a studded blue bracelet and In one picture vintage sunglasses from another little boutique in London .

Rising Trend Alert Ear Cuffs

My Simple Small Cuff
 
Ear Cuffs are everywhere this Summer and after seeing loads of celebs and even Cara Delevinge wearing them I went out and got one ! I must say it is quite edgy ear gear and not for everyone but it certainly adds a bad gal attitude to any outfit !

I think that one of the reasons that they have become so popular because you can wear them without hassle and not having to commit to having a hole in your ear for the rest of your days .

There are some seriously flamboyant ear cuffs like these leaf cuffs but there are also simple and understated ear cuffs like mine that is bronze and has little hearts on it .


Leaf Cuffs
You can also buy hair/ear cuffs that connect the ear to your hair like this one . I think that these look really creative and different .

This Summer at Glastonbury is when I predict the wild and feathery ear cuffs will come out and I'm sure they will look very in place with the indie music crowd !


The rest of the cuffs are ones that I really liked ! Including one on Cara Delevinge .

My Week in Instagram Pics

So this week has been one of those weeks where my life is 24/7 BUSY ! So I thought I'd show you my week in instagram pics ! ( @isabellalee101 )



















To start off the week I bought two fabulous graffiti skirts from a boutique in Cheltnam . They are really loud , bright and I think that the skater skirt is going to look quite girly compared to the midi straight skirt that will look quite rebellious ! But either way they are fresh , new and a bit different as well as in keeping with the current print trend !



I went out for dinner and wore this large but not blingy gold collar from Egypt with an emerald green top and Black lace skater skirt.

I wore vintage bracelets from a tiny boutique in London and some dangly gold earrings from Topshop.




I went shopping and bought this bold monochrome stripy jacket from H&M (BARGAIN) for £15 !
My headband is from Topshop.

 I also got some vintage looking sunnies from Forever 21 , yet another bargain and perfect for summer .










I went skiing to Les Deux Alps .......... Sunshine , snow and some good skis are my perfect easter getaway !
I came home and then went to the Shard .
After the Shard I went and had lunch in Borough Market , really recommend the cupcakes !!!






So that's my life this week !

SUMMER ! Beach , Bikinis and Backpacks

SUMMER ! Beach , Bikinis and Backpacks

The sun is starting to peak through the the trees in England , not enough to get the Bikinis out but best to be prepared !

This Summer it's all about fringing , cut outs , monochrome and backpacks . T

he fringing is quite hippy but still very stylish . I love the cutouts in clever places like these bikini bottoms - revealing but not too revealing !
The monochrome backpack I love , it's so practical , pretty and super cute .
Last off I fell in love with this Panda swimsuit . It is just a whole lot of fun on one piece of fabric ! LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!!

Borough Market , Monochrome and Macaroons

Yesterday I went to Borough Market , a market full of colours , smells and inspiration .
I wore
- a monochrome stripy jacket
- a studded yellow t-shit
- skinny jeans
- red Hi Tops

Borough Market is a unique market in the heart of London that is full of flavours , colours and a fantastic place to people watch.

It is not usually as busy but yesterday it was chocka block ! It's great to watch all the different people wandering round , hustling and bustling spotting new styles , fresh fashion tastes and some car crash colour disasters !

People watching is a hobby in which you go out and watch people. The way they act, dress, & talk. Like bird watching except with people. Very entertaining.
 
If you are planning on going there anytime soon , the macaroons are fabulous and the cupcakes are equally delicious !
 
Here are some pictures I took ...
