Kings Cross







Oyster card, check. London A-Z, check. Camera, ipod, check. Good but slim book for the tube, check. Keys, oh buggar... where are my keys? All pockets empty, check. Where the frig...? Ah yes... in the front door. Just where I left them. Note to self: STOP DOING THIS!! Now, after a couple weeks of walking and exploring this here city, all I need is a job. Oh yeah, and my shoes re-heeled! 
This city has an amazing cross section of people and cultures - inspiration could come from every corner. However this week I have mostly been ogling the tiles and mosaics at the tube stations. So far my favourite is the elaborate mosaics of Tottenham Court Rd (pictures to come)  - but this weeks outfit was inspired by the colour scheme of the tiles at Kings Cross (above). I'm a sucker for a simple block colour print. Slurp. Unfortunately all the colours are a bit washed out here... see the chictopia blog for colours in all their glory! Faux fur is lilac - I repeat LILAC!




Super props to Mummy M in her last post. That braid is inspired! And Ze boys look amaZing. Lock up your daughters.



Here is Marijan rocking the headscarf with the TCR mosaic backdrop.


Shirt: Lumberjack, Rokit

This week I have been listening to: Jarvis Cocker - "Disco Eyes" (Pilooski edit)

  4. The addition of the fur collar to the aqua cardigan really makes the outfit. So super cute!! I guess it helps that aqua is my favorite color!
