Lonny Goes to Londontown II

When I saw this portobello shoot in Lonny, I was blown away by how similiar of pictures I have from my own visits to Portobello almost every Saturday. Take a look at some my favorite finds here, here and here. Ohhh, how I wish I could go explore this infamous antique market right now, it was definitely one of my favorite spots in London! 

Instant Attraction {Kenneth Jay Lane}

(creeping tough on some prized possessions ha)

Saturday I hit up Portobello Markets to soak up all the goodness for one of the last times. This time I had a chance to spend awhile in Hirst Antiques, which is a one of a kind experience if you are a jewelry fanatic like me! It is absolutely chalkfull of vintage treasures and not just cheap costume jewelry, we're talking vintage Chanel, Dior, and my newest obsession, Kenneth Jay Lane. His pieces are the epitome of statement jewelry and all are beautifully embellished with corals, turquoises and crystals. Do me a favor and just google his name, what you will find will amaze you. Here are just a few of my favorites for today :) I honestly love every piece, especially all his coral and nautical pieces...Diiiiivine!!!

I have only one Saturday left in my home sweet London, meaning only one more day trip to Notting Hill, so heartbreaking! I am not ready to leave this fabulous city, especially now the weather is perking up...I am actually wearing shorts today--it's a miracle :)

Globally Eclectic

After taking another trip over to Portobello Market in Notting Hill, this week I realized how in love I am with the 'global-ecletic' style, if that is such a thing. Lately I have been gravitating towards the look of mix and matched antiques from all different time periods and places but together it can just flow so nicely. I love plain walls and a wood floor which is such a great blank canvas to start placing all your lovely finds. This style would definitely need some perfecting over the years but it'd be so fun to be surrounded in such a lively room filled with pieces that are full of such special memories. Antique resourcing is definitely where it is at, I can not wait for the day I can have a client that will send me off, letting me pick out the perfect pieces for their space :)

I really should start on some homework but this is just way more fun, hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
