^I’ve been eating a lot of sushi for breakfast/lunch lately..

^OMG I LOVE Hey Arnold! Please tell me you know him! Top right is a pair of monkey socks given to me over Christmas by a friend in Porto. They’re awesome. Bottom pic is my bed where many-a-night I’m spending way too much time reading Men’s Health or Quora.

^Left: Gifts from a friend consisting of some of my favourite things – Vegemite included OF COURSE! Oh and peanut butter pouches.. so good.

Right: One of my breakfasts. Chirashi sushi, baby biscuits, fruit, and chocolate!^

Below: My super bling iPhone case! You can get it for $50 from Casemate.

^Left: Disco ball and my little horse – an old birthday gift from 2013

Right: A card I made using pieces of felt and a glue gun. For a friend whose name began with the letter G^

^This was me in Porto in DECEMBER! Can you believe it. My pom-pom headpiece is by Rosa Bloom.

^Food ‘lunch belts’ that I got from Colette Paris – I love that store so much! And my new Marc Jacobs sunglasses, c/o SmartBuyGlasses.

I was hoping to receive them in time before I went off to Portugal and Spain last month but that didn’t happen. So here are some pics of me wearing them as I enjoyed some sunshine.. at home.. in my bikini! This is something I do quite often during the winter actually – whenever the sun’s out. If you can’t do it outside, why not in, right?

^That’s a sunspot on my hair! Hair cut & colour by Pimps & Pinups.

^HAhahaha ok basically I was so high on sunshine and self-love that I thought it would be a fantastic idea to keep taking pictures of myself wearing my cool new sunglasses. Cos I thought I looked pretty damn good in them (and I don’t care if you think not :p).

They fit great! This particular design also comes in BLUE (I know, the blue is SO ME isn’t it!). But seeing as I’ve given away my RayBans to my sister/mom I might get a replacement for those instead.

Ok, that’s enough of me for now.

And please, if you haven’t already, follow me on Instagram (and say hello)!

The post Instagram – My New Toys! appeared first on SMALLCRAZY.

On a sunny day, all the colours – from the canal boats and kitschy decorations – come to LIFE. I am in love with it. Do you sometimes feel like you can SMELL colours? I think we’re all capable of experiencing colour in every sense..

Here are photos from April, when I introduced the walk to one of my best friends in town, Reena.

At the start of the walk, there are rows of parked canal boats.. I think some people actually live in them. I’m not entirely sure. But outside on the sidewalk you’ll see an assortment of items.. benches, chairs, tables, lamps, flowerpots, etc.

^Just chillin’ out under my blinged-out tree with my laptop and wellies, yknow.. normal

^You must never forget to notice the little details!

^Sometimes you’ll see people picnicking or reading or napping atop their boats..

I picked this set of photos to blog about because, despite it having been sunny and VERY HOT in London over the last 30+ days, it was a bit on the chilly side yesterday and for the first time in AGES, I had to wear a cardigan. I don’t mind the occasional thin jumper or scarf (I have a quite-large collection of scarves.. mostly lightweight or silk or vintage ones).

I was thinking the birdie scarf by Hobbs would be a nice one to add to my collection.. from afar it looks like little stars against a night sky, and then as you go closer, you can start to see that they’re actually tiny yellow birds. I like it.

ANYWAY..

^Patrick Star and my musical toy from Porto

^We stopped by my favourite picnic bench along the way and had some.. fruits.

Did I tell you that I LOVE fruits? I know.. kinda lame but I do. We sat there for a good while listening to Jack Johnson, looking through my kaleidoscope, and laughing at nothing.

If you know me well then you’ll know what I was REALLY doing..

^I really do love Reena! We were born in the same year, only a couple of weeks apart.

^Approaching Camden

CAMDEN MARKET / PEOPLESPACE

At the lip of Camden Market, we stumbled upon this totally hippie set-up called Peoplespace.. a sort of market/community. There were people sat on the ground, singing/playing guitar on the boat, and homemade cakes and biscuits for sale (for v cheap I might add!).

Everyone was enjoying the sunshine.. enjoying BEING there. It was just amazing.

There was a lot of handmade art to be seen and bought too.

And a lot of LOVE 🙂

^Above is my favourite place to sit down with some stall-bought food from Camden Market..

By the water, under a big tree, with lots of happy people. Isn’t it great?

As it happens, the forecast tomorrow is set to be 31 degrees Centigrade and I’ll be heading to Camden Beach with some friends. No doubt I’ll be walking out in my bikini and sunscreen + beach towel in tow 😉

PS – do you like the smell of sunscreen? my favourite is Coppertone as it reminds me of swimming training when I was growing up (I trained as a competitive swimmer) x
