Kamakura ♡ 鎌倉

On Monday we visited the beautiful seaside place Kamakura with our friends Owain & Yuko and their adorable daughter Maira, about an hour from central Tokyo. It felt like a completely different world, there are trees and small mountains surrounding the town and it stretches out to the seaside. There were so many beautiful temples and old buildings and cute little shops, we enjoyed a big wander around and went and got our fortunes done at one of the big temples, which felt so spiritual! We also went to a ridiculously cute restaurant which had about 3 tables and was run by these two little elderly ladies and the majority of which was vegan - very exciting! I had a mixed plate of all sorts of goodies! Here's a few photos from our adventurings ♡

I'm really a mermaid ♡

Completely obsessing over Wildfox at their summer collection at the moment, feeling super inspired by the idea of the sea & mermaid and sparkles and shells <3 Watching Ariel in the little mermaid and wanting to be by the sea!

 Going to Falmouth tomorrow so think I'll probably do lots of drawing/designs based around the sea and a beautiful mermaid style girl. Wildfox never fails to amaze me with their lookbooks, and this one is just a whole new level of dreamy. Charlotte Free is so perfect! It's all so free & fun (: My wishlist from the collection is getting enormous! Here's an illustration I've been working on over the past week <3 

& some of the images from the lookbook, pink hair and pastely mermaidy long skirts and baggy tops - too perfect for words......

Hope everyone has nice weekend and sunshine plans! Hope you like! Lots of Love x x x x
