Do- A Perfect Day.
I work from home most days but it can often feel like I am on the go and moving way too fast, even though I am sat at my desk or in bed, writing or photoshopping or email back and forth with designers etc. Add moving house to the other side of the country into…

Blackheath.
Sometimes London surprises me, in the best possible way. The City itself is brimming with culture in all corners and beautiful neighbourhoods to sojourn. I happened upon one of such neighbourhoods a few weeks back. Blackheath. In the South East of London. And I fell in love. The South East has a bit of a…

Tim Walker @ Somerset House
I saw the Tim Walker exhibition when it was on at Somerset House, its no longer showing, but this was sitting in my drafts so I thought I’d share it. It was an exhibition of the most extraordinary things and a life size dolly. A vision through his lens, fashion, lifestyle, art, quirky stuff, bugs,…

See- Somerset House. Valentino Master of Couture.
I’ve just rekindled my romance with Somerset House, the hallowed grounds of London Fashion Week. It’s one of the most beautiful places in London with its vast grounds and nooks and crannies of intertwining buildings and the very large bare square where the tents will be erected for the fashion week onslaught. Somerset house is…

Eat- WAFFLES!
My instagram is filled with food shots, primarily dessert because that is my main food group; I never met a dessert I didn’t immediately love. So imagine my sheer joy when I found the perfect waffle in London, at one of my favourite department stores; why Harvey Nics of course. Wafflemeister make the best waffles…

Some argue if he is the ever elusive Banksy even. All that aside, his first European exhibition; Life is Beautiful, held in London…

Off the beaten track London; Cocktails and more eats
So we’ve gone to the market in Borough, stopped by for some jerk chicken on the Kings road, had dessert in Lola’s Mayfair, had a wander through the Royal Parks, enjoyed some of the best sceneries and gone to the galleries. Now, let’s have a cocktail or two. The London Cocktail Club is where its…

Off the beaten track London; More of Borough
Besides the wonderful Borough market is the surrounding itself, the brownstones and mewses, cobbled streets, nooks and crannies. Your curiosity will lead you on, like it does me whenever I’m there. Pop into Paul Smith around the corner from the market, my favourite branch because its so typically english, with a country manor charm if…

Off the beaten track London; Borough Market.
Possibly the best market in London, it is to me, a destination in the East End of London with everything at your finger tips and at a perfect price; where else can you get gelato right after coffee, authentic italian gelato, freshly made? right next door; Gelato 3DIS, Turkish delights and olive, English wine from…
