A day in Camden is definitely up there as one of my favourite kind of days.
Last time I went, I rocked up on my Boris bike before heading to Nobu Unplugged!
It’s not an hour jobby Camden. There so much to see and do, and thats without eating and people watching… which i can say, reaches A PEAK in Camden.
We ventured no further than The Stables Market which, as usual, provided all the entertainment we needed.
First things first, we were hungry.
(Standard.)
People usually have a lot to say about the stall food in Camden…
‘You just don’t know what’s in there’ blah blah.
But seriously, we don’t know what goes in half of the food we eat, half of the population eats McDonalds anyway. We KNOW what’s in that – and yet we still eat it!?
As long as you don’t eat it everyday, that’s my rule!

We then continued the bad (but yummy) food spell and headed to one of the crepe stalls…

Meet Alan…
Apparently he is a Guinness Record Breaking ‘Town Crier’.
Whatever that is!… Anyway such a happy man, and I LOVE HAPPY PEOPLE.
We then headed to CACTUS LEATHER, the leather shop just down the stairs from the food court (by the statue horses).
Here they custom design pretty much anything leather.
They have gorgeous gorgeous bags, wallets, purses, jewellery and you can even choose your own leather and buckle and have a custom belt made!
I think the belts were only £25 and the leather was beautiful (i love the smell of fresh leather!!)
I then bought me my first ever christmas jumper!!!
They are literally the CUTEST here! They are the kind that look like they should be worn in an old christmas film all curled up by the fire!
Super cute and mine was only £18!

One of the main reasons I love Camden so much is that there is yummy food e v e r y w h e r e!
Doughtnuts, crepes, homemade sushi, mulled wine, hog roast – you name it!
Annoyingly, we were still full from the chinese and crepes, but the smell was yummy enough!
Okay so eventually we gave in and had some doughnuts! 🙂
We got a selection for £2.50, one caramel topped, one chocolate topped, one vanilla and the other a fresh sugar doughnut!
As you can see, I picked up some wonderful new glasses from the market…
Like the kid that I am, I headed home wearing everything I had bought!
Bracelet, glasses, bobble hat and my new christmas jumper!
Another lovely day with my best friend in Camden!
P.s. Stay tuned for Christmas party outfit!
