Portrait de Martin Luis Guzman, Diego Rivera, 1915

Unique Form of Continuity in Space, Umberto Boccioni, 1913
I chose the 1910's decade for inspiration to Menswear because I didn't know much about the time period.  Looking at late Cubism art and the Futurist ideas made this decade rather contemporary than dated.

Ghanaian food is SPICY; All Saints controversy


Portobello Market is swarming of tourists and locals who dig around for antiques, hand-made crafts, various fashions, knick knacks, food, etc.
I always follow the smell of amazing food; and this time I've discovered the most delicious food in the market - Ghanaian food. It is served as a stew form and in this summer weather, the chillies will numb your mouth. According to TimeOut magazine, there are few others around London worth giving a taste!


While trying to swallow the mouth flaming food, I discovered another reason why I love London markets...look closely.

On an ending note, if we want to reserve Portobello Road for its markets, we will have to battle the likes of All Saints and other retailers from taking it all away.
