I heart everything chunky jewellery ... After the king of costume jewellery Kenneth Jay Lane, i think Mawi  is fast become the rebel princess. They recently opened their first London boutique in trendy East London ,11 Calvert Street, Shoreditch.

Mini Sunray Bangle £230 - Farfetch 

Spike Tube Ring. £193 in Gold.
Also Available in Hematite  (which is  like a gun metal) @ Mawi Store

The store is pretty close to their studio, so if your ring size isn't available in your size one can be made for you in an hour ! Now that's excellent customer service eh !

Staying in East London check out Noemi Klein, edgy , haunting but ironically delicate. She has quite beautiful Earrings at quite affordable luxury prices...

Culture Vulture...

I've been meaning to blog about this for ages ...contemporaray african clothing !

a style that goes on forever... In light of this summer trend with mix prints, I think the use of various african batik style prints give a twist and elegant way of doing this trend without looking to much like one has gone through one too many charity shops :/

Sika Design is one of my favourites, advertised in glossy such as Vogue & Grazia  i may have mentioned on daily site Rubinubi Splendia about her before.All her clothing handmade in Ghana, I purchased a shirt of hers which has certainly stood the test of time..

Cherry Jumpsuit £89.00 by Sika Design

Bubble Dress - Hand Made in Ghana . £130 by Sika Design.

She has an online boutique which contain adorable african cloth dress, skirts and shirts. What is distinctive about her clothing are that they excellently executed, has great tailoring and fierce contemporary design. Outfits that can be worn in day and take you to the evening.

I recently came across amazing designer Max Osterweis film maker turned designer is the chief executive and creative director of the fair-trade clothing line SUNO. His home is in Brooklyn, his home away from home has become Lamu in Kenya. Which you'll see has inspired his amazing collection - where is incorporates vintage Kenya materials and new.

now ALDO is doing it for the high street !!

I saw these wicked wedges in Aldo today £65 not bad eh ?!

Ciao for now :)
