Out and about: Greenwich.

We tried to do Street Snaps today, swear on our hearts but every time we visit a new area of London we just get distracted by all the pretty things.

 Except this time we got distracted by paella and churros....and more food... 
Below are our pictures of our day:




This guy sells airbrush tees, find him on www.ankh-and-witty.com
It was also really cool to watch him work.
Having churros and a Japanese bento stall in one place is just heaven.

Paella for lunch!

 Our necklaces are cool so stfu.


I bought a tee and a hair bow for school as well as the Twiggy necklace.
One thing I have to say is that the shirt is "free size" and looks like a dress...

Street Snaps: V&A Museum

We apologise for the lack of street snaps on this post because we got distracted by all the pretty stuff in the Victoria and Albert Museum, which ended up in a discussion of where in Asia we would like to live, result: we can't decide :(

Rianna: While walking through the really long infamous subway to the V&A museum we saw this girl. We though that is was the cutest casual outfit for museums in London. The bright coloured dress with the jeans jacket was the perfect combo for the weather that day.
Rianna: Now this outfit we just loved. Every girl should have a black skater skirt in her closet. The boots and the blouse gives it a subtle lolita style. Which just makes this outfit even cooler.
Now when we saw this outfit all we could think of was cute belt. We think that it's a cute outfit for a bike ride around London.

Here are our outfits of the day:
Rianna: I decided to sparkle on a rare sunny day with a gold midi dress 
Rianna: Melissa following trend with the black jacket and ponytail.

Our fantastic find for today was Chinese Actress: Fan Bingbing's "Dragon Robe" which she wore for the 2011 Cannes festival which is on display at the V&A. The dress was co-designed by the Chinese designer Laurence Hsu and Fan herself. The dress features two leaping dragons and crashing waves on the hem in the bright yellow colour that only emperors could use in Ancient China.

Below are a few more photos from our day over at the museum~ 

 Melissa: I want a teeny tiny waist like that =.=
Rianna:Our immediate thought was Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy from Pride and prejudice. 
Rianna: This was the beginning of the collection. The dress is by Topshop in 2009 and that stunning Necklace is Christian Dior.
Melissa: We should've come here earlier for our textiles homework that we were given over the summer~
Rianna: This section was cool because it was the return of the fashion houses in 1947 after WWII.

Street Snaps: Chinatown

Today our goal was to buy stationery for the upcoming school term but we just found a few extremely cool people who kindly let us take pictures of their outfits today.

These two girls are from Japan and they were so sweet that I have somehow grown attached to them. Yet I didn't ask for their name. Their outfits were so cute, I like how the girl on the left is working those dungarees.
 Thankfully she stopped for us even though she was rushing, her casual outfit was still a stand-out from the crowd.

 We saw these two girls filming a dance cover for our favourite song right now (I Love You- 2NE1) and the girls were rocking it! So we obviously had to get a picture of these two ladies. We really should get ourselves one of those sweatshirts. And of course with anything involving 2NE1, there has to be a Jeremy Scott item in the outfit.
Her outfit was adorableeee. I love everything about it from the dress to the pearls that decorated the jacket's collar.

Oh and here are outfits for the day:
