Visit Notting Hill!
Let’s just say I got a few concerned gazes from people as I held my camera inches from these door knockers. I’m happy that no one opened up the door while I was snapping shots – or on second thought that would have given me a chance to say, “I’m a blogger and [...]

Visit ChartreuseChic!

If I had the dough, I’d spend most of my time in the drape-y, muted, earth friendly offerings from Stella McCartney. But why daydream about unaffordable eco fashion when there are so many green options within reach?
