Covent Garden and Chinatown

I'm back in Oxford again for the Christmas holidays, which I guess gives me time to reflect on my first semester, which definitely ended on a considerable high. I'll miss everyone for the three weeks I'm away, but it is Christmas after all and that is pretty awesome. These pictures are from when Sean, Luke, Bradley and I visited Covent Garden.



Beret is from a vintage shop near where I live, scarf is asos, skirt is Luella, Leather jacket is New Look



Bag is a Cambridge satchel and shoes are Primark.



I wanted to show you what Sean was wearing too, I really like his Smiths t-shirt! He got it from Camden, his jeans are Primark, his blazer is his old school one.



I still feel like a tourist around London. My pictures are often very touristy. But there is so much to see in London I think you remain a tourist for the rest of your life, despite whether you live here or not. I'm beginning to have favorite places though. I love Chinatown, which I visited for the first time last week. It's got some really cool asian food shops as well as some kawaii souvenir type shops which are lavishly decorated. (though they won't let you take pictures, boo) A personal highlight for me was a cake shop, where you could get slices of cake which were as big as your face for a pound. Check out my Rainbow cake:





In Covent Garden I had to drag myself away from a Hello Kitty shop which was selling Sandwich cutters which make your sandwiches look like Hello Kitty's face. It was the best, though probably not the most useful thing.



So soon I'll be doing another tutorial on how to customize your boots with flowers, which sounds pretty self explanatory but hey, I'm running out of ideas. A Christmas post will probably be introduced soon too.
