It’s been 6 years since I’ve been on UK soil and it feels great to be back in the city of London. If it wasn’t for my 2 year tour in England and traveling all across Europe, I would have never been living in NYC doing my thang. It’s really an amazing city, the lifestyle, diverse cultures, nightlife and of course fashion, It was addicting and the resemblence between the two cities were uncanny and that’s why I’m in the Big Apple today. 

So, before my annual trip to Paris for spring break, I made it a necessity to stop over in London for a day to retrace my old steps and visit a few of my best friends. The visit was long overdue, but we made it happen and I couldn’t be happier to see my old bredrins!! Plus, It was Janine’s first time visiting, so in a day, we toured all of London just for her. That includes stop-and-go sightseeing, shopping and lunch all in a bare 8 hours! 

Jet lagged and deprived of sleep!! Didn’t matter cause I’m in London baby!!! And I got the beanie and the shades on to cover that travel ugly!!!! 

Travel tips: Make sure to carry an extra pair of clothes and grooming essentials in your carry-on, make sure your carry-on’s a large backpack or duffle that fits in an overhead and make sure your carry-on’s as cool as mine! :) Bag purchased at Manhattan Vintage Show.

Big Ben and Channel Logo! Awesome! (not really a Channel logo though)

London EYE

Travel tip: Slippers are the perfect traveling shoe, why? Because you can slip em’ on and off on those long ass plane rides! Plus, there comfy to walk in! Easy does it! Slippers by Rugby.

Harrods and Piccadilly Circus - A mini Time Sq. if you will.

Janine was too jet lagged to show her face, but this snippet of her new vintage skirt will do! Vintage skirt purchased at Tommy Hilfiger.

I’m glad I got the chance to stop by Dover Street Market, this place is like heaven! They have everything I love - COMME des GARÇONS, JUNYA WATANABE, GIVENCHY, the works…….

If your ever in London, you must stop by here! SERIOUSLY!!!!

Here’s a couple pics I snapped of my homie’s little one RiRi rockin these cool bunny ear’d snap backs by Bernstock Speirs - She’s a cutey ain’t she!

These are the only shots I got before they told me to put my camera away :\

Thanks to my sistah’s Zel and Jackie for taking us around! Love you guys and I will definitely be back soon to at least catch the night fall or maybe as soon as the Olympics.
