When traveling I always bring back gifts for my mates. I always try to keep it simple and coming from the heart as I don't think it's important that you bring something big and expensive but something personal.
This year for example, I brought a bracelet for my mate, with three coins on black leather, a leather book for another friend, bracelets and handmade candles, DVDs, toffee, tea, a silk kimono from Camden Market with matching earrings for my girlfriend and a big box of Ben's Cookies.
But of course, I always buy something for me, as especially London has such a vast variety of brilliant stuff.
So here's an overview of popular things right now.
- The Inbetweeners Season 3
- a vintage British military jacket from WW II from Camden Market
- red and white braces from Covent Garden
- a golden and leather spyglass from Portobello Road Market
- 2 for £10 Tees from TOPMAN
- a feather ring from Covent Garden
- EMPIRE magazine
- HMV's 3 for 2 CDs and DVDs
- an Abercrombie & Fitch sweater
- I <3 Camden Buttons
I especially love my new military jacket! It's absolutely awesome and it was really really low priced!
So, whatever it is you like to bring from your travels just post them!
