As if I'm Back in China

As some of you might already be aware of, I used to live in Shanghai for 3 years. Since I moved to London, I can't help but keep returning to Chinatown. Not for the atmosphere, mind you. But rather for the- wait for it... Food.. Duh of course.

I might as well use that as the title really 'Where The Food is' but then it is really no better than what it is now anyway. Let me know in the comment what I should have as the title instead if you have any idea folks!

Blame it on Vintage

Right. So I am kind of broke. Well it is the end of the month but other than that I have not been very smart in my spending this month. Like really Christine get yourself sorted out please. Yeah I cant really blame anyone else but me, but I can however also blame vintage stores all around London that brought me to my knees, might as well not go out at all really. Why? because when you see a cute dress, you cannot be sure if you will ever see it again innit? Sigh.

So here are some photos taken by Neil, who is a friend of mine- also a very talented photographer. He was photographer of the month in EyeEm and he asked to collaborate and I said yes because I know it would have been a lot of fun!

I got this dress from a curated vintage shop in Stable Market in Camden, called St Cyr's Vintage. Hat also vintage, so is the vintage 1940s suitcase there. The only thing that is not vintage would be my shoes which are from Max&Co.

Pastel Walkabout

Welcome to this colorful-ish post! Hope you guys are doing well.. You know I am! Well apart from the fact that I am gaining weight but I am enjoying life, very much so at this point. I mean look at that spin.

This week Anisacrament and I met up with The Provoker. He is such an amazing individual that exudes positive energy and it is just very entertaining to hang with him. Check out his blog because not only that he is cool to be around with, his blog is also a source of creative inspiration for fashion styling.

Oh and in relevance to the gloomy weather, I took that to my advantage to wear raincoat, like this one with polkadots on, I cannot say no to that.

Between the Pillars

Hello dears! How are you peeps? I need to tell you that I was beyond happy to find this cool 1970s vintage dress from Peekaboo Vintage! 

So some people from Igerslondon and I were hanging out at Greenwich when I asked my portrait specialist friend Solo to shoot me for a blogpost and he agreed! I really like how it turned out.

The Canal Walk

Another thing that I love for being in the UK is the opportunity on visiting pretty spots and being able to put on dresses that I like and not being sweaty (because it is rather cold here haha). So I met the cool Anisacrament and we had such a lovely time during out visit to Grand Union Canal.

Massive thanks to Anisacrament who took my photos, and with her camera too LOL. It was such a fun photoshoot (heehee).

Hugs and kisses, thanks for visiting.

Floral and Mint

"Full and Starving" had a new studio and we have fun today! Danny wanted to experiment with the lighting and I was more than happy to be an object whilst documenting my outfit. So lucky that my friendly neighbor is a photographer, and a generous person-for he shared so many photography tips!

Is it just me or the monochrome setting from Canon resulted in a grey-ish slightly green black and white?

I think we did wayyy too many of these jumping shots. You will see more of it next time I guarantee it (not even sorry). I like how the birdcage necklace elevated while I jumped.
