To Market, To Market

That box above says 'Blog' alright, with an extra G but whatevs. I thought I'd share with you, as a new Londoner, a few pics I took in Old Spitalfields Market. It's a lovely place, full of what I like to call 'curiosities'but others might refer to as glorified bric-a-brac, haha. 

Has anyone been and do any Londoners have suggestions for other Markets I need to visit? Sunday Upmarket is next on my list but I know there are absolutely loads in London. 

Tonight I'm heading to The Box club in SoHo with some-time Glitz & Grime photographer Ben for Secretsales' 5th Birthday Party. I've wanted to go for ages, it looks like a very debauched club! Right up my street. 

On that note, I'd better dash and get ready, I'm thinking sparkles and a slash of Red lipstick!

Enjoy your evening and if you have the time take a peek at this article I wrote for Noisey.com.

I like the decapitated doll's head.

You deffo need to hook up with my friend Makada for stuff like this. She is the Queen of Cheap Tat. Maybe we should all go for dinner over FASH WEEK.

Cromer is the town that I'm from!! Very famous for its crabs, haha! And I've been to the Henry Blogg lifeboat museum, true story. So looking forward to market exploring in London! :D x

Roman Road Market is great for tacky cheap stuff. And cheap topshop knock offs! Actually Roman Road is just all round great, it's nearest tube station is mile end it's on saturdays, thurs and tues. Saturday is it's main day.

Sunday up-market is good but a bit pricey + some stuff you can get elsewhere cheaper.

Broadway Market is nice too. It's got lot's of nice coffee shops and bars around there as well.

I'd suggest broadway Market in London Fields on Saturdays. Food and vintage, such a great combination.
