THE FASHION AND LIFESTYLE: PORTOBELLO MARKET HAUL

Spending my Saturday afternoon at Portobello Market is one of my favourite things to do, never mind the Notting Hill area being my favourite place in London (but don’t tell Camden that.)

Portobello Road hosts the weekly antique market every Saturday and if like me you are a sucker for anything vintage then this is the place to be.

I headed over to Kensington and Chelsea last weekend to see what I could find and I ended up returning with a random collection of goodies.
I like to collect antique cups and saucers and my collection is becoming quite vast, I try and find interesting, mis matched sets, Portobello Market is one of the best places to find them cheap.
I bought a tiny blue and white teacup and saucer for a bargainous £4.
I am currently using it to store my jewellery in whilst I am down here in London.

I also purchased a vintage pair of glasses, now I know there is the whole stigma regarding wearing glasses for fashions sake but there was something about the oversized lense / tortoiseshell frames that interested me.
Finally, I got my hands on the popular ‘More issues than Vogue’ t shirt as I felt it was rather fitting.

Have you ever visited Portobello Market?
