Local Colour: Summer Accessories Mini Haul

Our suburb in London is really village-y, which I love. We're so close to the city centre, and yet it feels like we're one step from the country sometimes. It's the best of both worlds. We hit a local fete over the weekend, and bought a slice of homemade cake and took a look at …
