What I Wore On A Day Out In Camden: Dress: H&M
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things of what you’re doing
In my head I paint a picture- Why don’t you come on over Valerie. Amy Winehouse.

Why Don’t You Come On Over, Valerie?
Amy Winehouse was a British singer-songwriter known for her unique voice and blend of various musical genres, including jazz, soul, and R&B.
Some of her most popular songs including Rehab, Back to Black, and Valerie. All are such amazing songs.
A few weeks ago at work, my name tag broken so I had to grab a spare one quickly. They had no spare Claire’s and one of the names really suited me so I picked out Valerie.
Ever since I have not been able to get this song out of my head.
A few weeks ago when we visited Camden (Rainbow Crossing In Camden London, UK Travel). I took these photos with an Amy Winehouse statue.
Great timing, eh?
Don’t you just feel on top of the world when the sun is shining? The sun was shining when we visited Camden. Watch my fun Reel here: Camden Reel.
Don’t turn around. Don’t look back. Keep moving forward. Keep pushing. The pot of gold is at the end of the rainbow, not the beginning. Motivational Monday.
Loving the zebra crossing in Camden it has been years since we last visited and was so pleased we went. Lots of amazing street art here too. You can see them on Instagram: Rainbow Crossing.
