She changes the weather in my world, feels like it's never getting cold....

♫ She Changes The Weather - Swim Deep ♫

Hey guys!!
Here is a quick post from when we went to Portobello Market, as you can see, it was about a week ago as nowadays, the weather has converted back to winter again. Don't we love the Great British weather!
As a lot of you know, Paloma and I LOVE shopping and have an addiction to pushing through rails and finding bargins....especially when they're vintage :)
This time, we decided to go for comfortable yet on trend looks with a toile (china) print and a polka dot flippy chiffon dress. Turquoise and blues is our fave summer colour due to both of our eyes being blue, it makes them stand out!

What are your predictions for summer?
Loads of love, Jess xxx
Paloma is wearing - Jeans - Topshop Leigh, Blouse - Primark, Bag - Topshop, Shoes - Forever 21.
I'm Wearing - Dress - TK Maxx, Sunnies - River Island, Belt - Dorothy Perkins, Cardigan - H&M, Bag - Primark, Shoes - Topshop MARTINAS.



P.s - check out this amazing new undiscovered band called Flyte, who were busking in Portobello. They're a group of four lovely guys who are all so talented and whose harmonies are spot on! You will be seeing them around very soon :)

'We Grew Up at Midnight'- The Maccabees


Hey All! This has to be the longest we have gone without writing a post! and it feels awlful! These past two weeks has been crammed with exams and a final push for revision, but, summer has officially begun! and exams are over! YAY, loads more blog posts to come!

Two weeks ago now, me and Jess went to see The Maccabees performing at Ally Pally, it was the most amazing experience and when we came out we were buzzing and literally didn't want it to end! I have never been to Alexandra Palace before, but it was such a  great venue and amazing atmosphere! We were at the very front and really recommend the support acts, Baxter Dury and British Sea Power. The Maccabees were so good live, even better than they are on CD- if thats even possible! There was a giagantic mosh though, so we had to move back a little to have a breather!

Look out for upcoming posts! Hopefully we will pick up some bargains on the weekend in the sales and also in Portebello (we can't get enough of the place!! 

Have a great weekend everyone! I'm looking forward to the football Euro Quarter- finals, who is everyone backing? xxPaloma xx

Portobello Market

My Watermelon inspired nails (just comment and ask if you would like me to do a tutorial :))

Hey all! Sorry for the lack of posting recently! We were both on holiday last week, and lack of internet connection meant that the blog suffered! But we are back now and so happy to be posting again! I have been meaning to do this post for a while, a couple of weeks ago me and Jess went to Portobello market. It is our favourite market in London, we LOVE it so much and I really reccomend a visit. The mixture of vintage finds, bargains, food and a Spanish atmosphere (as you can see from that yummy looking paella underneath!) gives it such a great vibe! and a handful of churros and hot chocolate from one of the many food stalls is a the perfect combination to warm you up when walking around the  market stalls :)

Paella on a giant scale! (I'm in Heaven!)
I want one so much!  <3




Me and Jess both have a soft spot for anything vintage and we fell in love with these retro signs and at a stall on the way to the market, so we had to have a picture by them :)



We also saw some gorgeous vinatge cameras that we instantly wanted! We would really love to get one, but thought they might be too hard to use, what are your thoughts?




Some amazing jewellery that we saw at one of the stalls. I absolutely love these quirky carrot earrings!




Look out for an upcoming posts :) xx Paloma xx
