Circus is the best description of this street. The crowds compare equally to Disneyland, making me not only claustrophobic, but also very less likely to want to shop. Topshop has some great finds, but do I really want to look like every other girl on the street? And then there's Kate Moss' collection, but I find myself unwilling to spend 150 pounds on a sweater just because her name is on the label. I must sound rather hard to please, but it is just that I am more interested in London's outdoor markets and would rather spend my money on something special. I am still looking for that great London boutique, full of adorable dresses and one-of-a-kind items, and I'm thinking my best bet is to look East.
On a different note, before Hannah and I managed to catch the bus one stop from it's ending point only to realize we were the only ones left and the driver had been yelling profanities at us without our noticing, we did find a great little spot to eat on Carnaby Street called "Leon." While it is a chain (like pretty much every other cute and delicious London find) I had what must have been the best, and only, sweet potato falafel wrap I've ever had. It was to die for, and I will most definitely be back, especially because it was not only delicious, but quite inexpensive as well.
