London Volume 1: Shoreditch, Banksy and a Denim Boilersuit
Oh London! How I adore you! In this first edition of reviewing my London travels I wanted to talk about Shoreditch, a hip part of East London that is oozing with style. We only had the privilege of spending an afternoon here but I am sure I could have spend an entire week there. First, graffiti: this is a pervasive part of London culture and with underground graffiti artists now mainstream this is the cool thing to have in your neighborhood. While on foot in Shoreditch we stumbled across an original Banksy, now covered so that it can be preserved for posterity. We also has a Banksy shop next to…

Dying My Hair Platinum Blonde & Vinyl Pants
Jacket Isabel Marant | Topshop Vinyl Pants (and HERE) | Gucci T-Shirt I have always been a proponent of taking risks when it comes to personal style and your wardrobe. Unless a trend just isn’t my style there are very few things I won’t try. I have been wanting to try an all over blonde hair style for as long as I can remember and after my wedding last year (wedding pictures with dark hair requirement met) I knew it was time. My hair style was accommodating: I cut it every 6 weeks so it would be hard to have it be over bleached and should I change my mind…
