chalk festival!

 
 

 

Every year in London we have a chalk festival called Imadon. This is my first year being able to attend because previous years at this time I was at my cottage. I am really glad I got to go.The talent was just incredible and my friend Megan has been participating in it for quite a bit so it was nice to see her piece in person. So much time and effort was put into these pieces and I just could not believe the detail in them. These pictures are the ones that were my favorite.

Shirt: urban behaviour , Pants: Bluenotes, Shoes: Spring, Purse: Winners,  Umbrella: Dollarama 

This is the outfit I wore to the chalk festival. We took photos at the market,. It was kind of a muggy day but since it rained I though it would cool down. It didn't really cool down and I was quite hot in my pants! My bangs were being all funky too so don't mind me hair. I never would have thought that I would wear printed denim but these floral jeans won me over. Oh and you also can excuse the fact that my bra is showing but hey its black and I waaass in direct sunlight. When looking at these photos I wish I could re-live this past weekend. I am currently in bed with my face swollen like crazy and only drinking milk products and oatmeal.....fun! I really wish I did not have to get my wisdom teeth but I know it will be for the better. I cannot wait until my face is normal and I can show myself in public and perhaps eat something that doesn't contain oats or milk. I will now leave you with some photos of me at the beach that I forgot to post on the last post.

Polka dot shorts...not the 90s kid tv show ;)




Shorts: Urban behaviour, Shoes: thrifted,
Shirt: Walmart, Necklace: gift, sunglasses: Forever 21


This outfit was quite cheap, which I love. There is nothing quite like getting a whole outfit for say under 30 dollars. The shirt was 14, shorts were 5, shoes were 6, necklace was a gift, and sunglasses were a 1.50. I wore this outfit to the home county folk festival. It is a festival with folk music, food and vendors selling very pretty ( and expensive!) art and jewelry. It was a fun time and for once I was able to listen to the performances ( lately when Mike and I go to festivals we don't stay too long because it has been so hot out and we don't want to waste money on drinks). This time we were smart and brought drinks with us :). The shoes that I wore are my most comfortable pair I own which makes them perfect for festivals. I call them my granny shoes :). Since summer is going very quickly I decided to make a list of things I wanted to do before it ends. It includes:
-have campfire with mike ( done once)
-rooftop screening of a movie at citiplaza
 ( roof top screening?! so excited. If you are in the london area check it out!)
-drive-in ( done 2X)
-blueberry picking
-beach (done 3X)
-ride bike more often!
-casino slots!
-beer festival
-paint pictures with mike and then swap them :)
-go out for breakfast













What is on your bucket list for summer?
