Another great opportunity was given to me. Zalando asked me to be a part of their Share Your Style - campaign. I get to share my personal style and pick an iconic style item to award my #TeamJon with ( You guys deserve it ) . You know how much I love rocking stunner shades to complete my outfit right ? Well I went for some classy Burberry sunglasses.
I was not the only one to support this epic campaign. Other known personalities like Christina Hendricks ( from Mad Men), my girl Nathalie de Schepper ( fashion blogger ) , Caroline de Maigret (singer/model), Lucky Blue (model) and Binx Walton (model) have been sharing their styles and stories too. The purpose of this campaign is simple: Share your style, your story, your experience. ( More details about the #ShareYourStyle campaign here )
The main reason I started blogging 4 years ago was to share my style and to be an inspiration to many with my stories, style and advice. Today , not only am I sharing my London style with you but I'm also sharing my 'London Story'.
Before heading to my 'London Story' I'd like to launch my #ShareYourStyle - Giveaway first.

My London Story
Last week I went to visit my bestie, homie and fellow blogger Trudy D. from It's True Blog in London City. Trudy and I used to be classmates and since then we became family. She graduated and moved to London to study a Master in Fashion Management. I hopped on my train to explore the great city of London. Too bad at my arrival in St-Pancras, I lost my wallet with all of my cards and money. So my ID, passport, bankcards, ... I basically was a nobody with no money, no identity...nothing. As they say in Drake-tongue : " Started from the bottom".
Luckily I had family , friends and my clothes ( thank god) and we had the best time. Once I arrived at my aunts house in North Finchley she gave me a budget to spent. First of all you have to know that the English currency is way up nowadays that means you'll receive only half your euros. However we managed to explore London to the max.
My friend Trudy's new place is in Canary Wharf ( a new upcoming borough in London ) . Her borough is so modern and full of skyscrapers. Honestly I'm still impressed. I shared my style with the pedestrians but not for long as we were running a bit late for London Fashion Weekend at the Saatchi Gallery near the Sloan Square station. It's neighborhood is magical too.
Here I am at Saatchi Gallery at Sloan Square where Trudy & I attended the London Fashion Weekend event. I also stumbled upon Cosmopolite Style , a London based menswear blogger I follow on Instagram. That encounter was so random, it's kinda funny when I think back.
Here I am sharing my style on Sloan Gardens
I was wearing : RABBITHOLE LONDON blazer | THRIFT STORE gilet | TIGER OF SWEDEN shirt | H&M pants | DR. MARTENS boots | BURBERRY sunglasses | RIVER ISLAND backpack
