…the dressing room of Margaret Howell in Fulham Road.

…where I was considering a couple of knits (I still am): one is a boat-neck from MHL and, in the background, a ballet wrap cardigan.

…suede wedge sandals from Kork-Ease, stripe socks from Tabio.

Today, I’m mixing elements from America, Britain and France, whether by provenance or by cultural influences. It doesn’t seem to be a natural harmony but… well… all three flags celebrate the blue, white and red.

Nuria, and flowers pick themselves, lucie, Bonjour Juliette, Tofu and busma: We have been so fortunate; the weather recently has been glorious. I think it shows in the pictures!

mat: I’m finding this documenting process very useful too. I was comparing last year’s blossom times to this year as I don’t want to miss them at St. Paul’s Churchyard. The North London picture, more of the Camden way actually.

Jia: I used to have really bad shopping karma…

Hannah: I am in love with my Nadinoo pieces too. There will be more, for sure.

Gela: The tourist things can be good too but, yes, London has much to offer.

Sandy: It’s hard to say, there are pockets. I like North London in general but I really dislike Belsize Park, for example.

Yen: 160NC, it’s my favourite now. I changed branches of Snappy Snaps too. I realised no matter how much I tell them not to do corrections, they were still doing something dodgy to the pictures…

SophieTakes Pictures: I stumbled upon a messy bit and it felt like something was about to kick off so I had to leave in a hurry. I remember Tartine and nice bookshops before I left, I’m sure it is a very vibrant area!

anni: The one I see advertised a lot is Origin but I’ve yet to go to one. I’ve only been to a ceramic fair this year.

petoskystone: Thanks, it’s always interesting to know others’ favourites.

Soshi: I think the floral Day Packs are sold out. Duffle still available!
