I like to go shopping at least once a week, when I say ‘shopping’ it doesn’t mean I actually spend any money …I love a bargain, I flip through Vogue magazines and search fashion websites like I have been given some sort of mission to find my next target! I analyse the trends from Vogue, see what I like and then find the high-street equivalent adding a bit of a ‘Skeena’ twist to it!
I appreciate everyone’s sense of style, I don’t like the standard plain janes (sorry if you are offended) but as I have previously ranted I love individuality wether you are wearing bright green creepers or a neon spikey hat!
Sometimes I feel the highstreet doesn’t give me that hit that I need (I sound like I am on drugs… I get my ‘hit’ when I find that individual item or piece that no-one else wants to wear! The whole point of IWANTYOURSTYLE is to appreciate the different ways people wear their clothes! …. Back to the point…. I went to Brick Lane on Sunday, I could easily say that its one of my favourite markets.
I get excited when I see these little stores that people have set up to sell whatever they want, a majority of the stalls have some decent products wether that be street style arts…. a new t shirt designer….hand made cupcake (we will get to the food part later)…. jewellery…. weird sunglasses …. whatever you can imagine they have it… they even have a little antiques section with cake stands and gas masks from the war!
If you want to see something different this weekend I would recommend going, sometimes its refreshing to see something outside of the shop that isn’t generic and is pretty unique!
This jewellery stand was situated just facing Liverpool street near the restaurants, the hand made jewellery was designed by the man sitting on his little stool and the way he has visually merchandised his product made me want to buy some! Seriously I get excited about this kind of stuff…. I have a obsession with jewellery and after contemplating bringing out a brand I salute all these little stalls! 
These shoes are handmade in the UK… they are real leather and come in these cute colours! I came a few years ago and it looks like they are doing pretty well… the weather was a bit off so it wasn’t rammed like it normally is!
There were hundreds of little stores selling kitsch style jewellery, little ditsy necklaces and some even selling sterling silver!
This new T-shirt brand SE1 (Supreme Elements 1) had quite a few ‘statement’ t shirts with some interest slogans…. I couldn’t resist taking a photo! Check out their website 
This just made me laugh, after speaking to quite a few stalls this is what quite a few people do in their spare time! A majority of the t shirts are well prices starting from £20! 
The gas mask freaked out my cousin but I haven’t actually even seen one before (besides the pictures etc) … pretty cool stuff.. and yes this is part of their brand concept! 
The food…. where do I actually start….. IT WAS AMAZING!!!! We ate before we came and then we walked into the food section, literally every type of cuisine you can imagine… desserts… crepes…. sushi… chinese.. falalfel… polish… indian food… Pakistani…. steak…. everything! A little juicing bar… I got really excited and devoured about 3 cakes with the help of the family! I recommend that when you do come here …. be hungry!
I had such a random time and ended up buying these John Lennon look a like sunglasses with a metal gold frame…. looked pretty East London for me but I am sure I can style it out (well we hope)!
I can’t wait for the summer when the sun is shining and its great to spend an afternoon there… they have quite a few bars and about 50 curry restaurants! For more information check out their website! Hope you love the pictures and I can’t wait to street style some of these fashionistas!
