On Thursday, Kayvan and I were on the look out for a perfect military jacket.  
We started looking in Greenwich Market with no luck.  
We then headed over to Spitalfields market and made a mandatory visit to see Clare of Vintage Heaven (the name of her booth/stall at Spitalfields) 
and as usual her stall was filled with too many lovely items!!!!!!!  
When I turned the corner I met Roberto and Carolina from People of london, 
and they took a few pictures of my outfit, 
I hope to see them around soon!

Mens band uniform or military jacket

Saris mean something to people other than a "costume" to wear for a party. What was the purpose of wearing them? Why take someone's culture and use it as a dress up party?  Answer: Firstly, I would like to thank you for following and enjoying my blog.  I have to wonder though if you really truly have looked at my blog at all, or know what I am about?  I never have and never will claim to be an expert in anything, or exploit cultures.  I do however, always show my love and devotion to what inspires me.
