Sorry my first outfit pictures from London took so long but both myself and my boyfriend have been very busy lately. Also, my outfits were not really 'post worthy' as my bf would say. This was probably one of the first days London started to feel like home as we strolled along canals in East London, meet up with an old and dear friend. We walked through the flower market at Columbia road followed by brunch at the Bistroteque, nicely tucked away in the streets of London. My first pictures of London and our new neighbourhood will follow very soon too but I thought it best to share with you the outfit post first.

To say I nearly sold this top. I don't get around to wearing that often but for someone like me who doesn't wear colours too often, it is just perfect. I am also super happy to say that the project I have been hard at work on for the last five months is slowly coming together - and to an end for that matter. I have to say I am filled with both nerves and excitement at the idea of sharing with you guys.

This has to be one of my all time favourite purchases. I love the print and the colours, this print is not something I could wear daily but I really gravitated towards it when I first saw it. I just could not get it out of my head. It reminds me of when I went to Africa nearly 15 years ago now. My mum brought so many dresses and skirts in the most amazing prints and the skirt just brings back great childhood memories. The skirt is also fashion conscience in that it is fair trade and seriously ethical.

If I created a fashion blog it is in part because I enjoy fashion and find the industry fascinating - to say the least. However, with such an ephemeral business, and one that is by nature constantly changing, very fickle and hugely wasteful - I really believe it is important that the wonder and magic associated to this industry is not shadowed by the violation of ethical and environmental policies. It is nice to know that this skirt is both ethical and eco friendly - be it recycled, organic cotton, non-toxic, fair trade, sustainable, vegan or non-exploitative.

As the length was a bit long, I just chopped the bottom of it, and I love it even more with the frayed seam. I just hope I can get to wear it some time soon. You can find similar items here or over at Fashion Conscience.
