Clarity in London
March 8, 2009
I feel like I am learning so much about myself in London. This last week has been a little interesting but I feel like I am starting to understand myself and the people in my life so much better now.
I went to Elle Fashion Week yesterday! It was so fun! We got to see a catwalk and look at all of these really expensive clothes. I actually made a couple of purchases, believe it or not. I bought a purse and a wallet by this cute little designer, Kate Sheridan. We actually got to meet her, which was cool. Her stuff was really cheap. A lot of the stuff was actually really cheap, which suprised me. I guess the recission is hitting everywhere. I am tryig to be as careful as I can will my purchaces here. I only want to buy things that feel very London and not things that I can find in the US. This is only because I go shopping blackout on a regular basis in America and I can’t afford to here. So far I have bought a lot of vintage jewelry pieces to bring back to the states. I would like to find a really cute vintage hat to wear. You know, one that doesn’t make me look bald.
The catwalk was amazing and I want to go to more. It is just so cool to see all these amazing avant-garde type clothes. I felt like I was in the middle of a project runway episode. I hope I can figure out a way to see more fashion shows here in London.
I am continuing to have an amazing time and as each day passes I become more and more appreciative of my time here.
