Here's what's included:

Meet My Korean Friends ^^

I want you to meet some of my little friends here in Korea. No, I'm not talking about children or unusually small people, I'm talking about my sock friends. Here in Korea almost every pair of socks I see has some kind of super cute cartoon character or funny face on them. I'm actually so used to seeing them that I'd totally forgotten that's not really normal. It was only in conversation with a friend from home that I realized just how lucky I am to have these little guys smiling up at me each day. Yep, that's how we do it in Korea!

If I really think about it there's probably a lot about Korea that isn't 'normal' that I've come to think is. Posing in photos with peace signs and hand hearts is definitely one of those things. See the photo above, that's what I look like in 90% of the photos that get taken of me by friends here. No-one bats an eyelid if you pull a silly pose. You can take and re-take a photo of yourself, by yourself, ten times in the middle of a crowded starbucks pulling a different face (from sultry and pouty to downright silly/cute) for each and people won't even look twice. Okay, that's not entirely true for me; because I'm blonde amongst a sea of black and dark brown hair I draw a couple of looks whatever I do. But, what I'm saying is, here it's cool to pose. Being self-absorbed isn't...well...self absorbed. It's just normal. Cartoon socks for adults aren't silly, they're just normal. Korea is very very cute.

In fact, I should really be doing this kind of thing to all my photos if i want to truly embrace the cliche of Korean cutesy!

Would you like my blog more if I did that to all my pictures?

Silver Metallic Jeans - H&M. Black Hooded Cardigan - Zara.

My froggy friends - Available at all good Korean stores.

I'm not knocking it in any way. I love this stuff about Korea. In all honesty I adore my sock friends, I have lots more. I might have sort of named them too... 

I'm not crazy I swear! But now you know my secret. So the next time you see a photo of me and you think my outfit looks chic or glam you'll know what's or should I say who are hiding inside my boots!!

Love me? Love me not? T-shirt - ASOS.

Oh and if you're wondering what the ^^ is in the title - it's big smile eyes!
