DREAMY MONDAY WITH DOLCI FOLLIE

What could be more perfect on a Monday morning than lacy pastel loveliness? I give you Dolci Follie, a luxury lingerie heaven tucked away in Notting Hill. It's only been open a few months and is already attracting attention for it's exclusive luxury brands, interiors - inspired by an opulent Venetian Palazzo, and quality of service (a glass of Prosecco in the changing suite? Thank you kindly!) 
Needless to say the boutique is rising fast and I can see why when I met the Simona, the owner of Dolci Follie; she told me that there is real TLC lacking from todays luxury lingerie experience, she treats each customer as an individual and builds up respect over time, which is why her loyal customers keep on coming back. 
This boutique really is a girls dream, whether you're looking for dreamy intimates or swimwear for a holiday, Simone has it all! I totally fell head over heels for the silk pyjamas by Olivia von Halle, I've decided they are the only things suitable to lounge around the house in. Also, if any of you or your friends are getting married you simply have to visit, whether it's a special gift or a full set, the range is SO BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you to Olivia from Bryan Morel for spending the afternoon with me, I'm sure I'll be back before you know it! 
You can find Dolci Follie on 28a Hereford Road, W2.

CELEBRATING WITH CHOPARD


Last week I was invited to the launch of Chopard's Happy Mickey collection, held at the Electric Cinema on Portobello Road. Children were invited to the event along with their fashionable parents (Jemma Kidd strolled in with a twin on each hip looking incredible). It was so much fun; we watched Mickey Mouse cartoons from the 1930's, drank milkshake and nibbled popcorn before heading upstairs to celebrate with champagne and a giant Mickey Mouse cake. The collection itself is insanely beautiful, I have so much Disney nostalgia, I can't help but love everything.
 Thank you so much Gaelle for inviting me and sending such a lovely letter and photo today! I will treasure it always.

ATALANTA WELLER AT THE CONVENIENCE STORE

Wearing: Burberry trench coat, Helmut Lang loose knit sweater, Acne shorts, Alexander Wang boots, Dominic Jones ring.
Wednesday night we celebrated Atalanta Weller hitting The Convenience Store, a little boutique out in what seems like the middle of nowhere of Notting Hill, selling only handpicked exclusive pieces and some quite unconventional ones too. All night I had my eyes on this huge fur hat, a modern twist on the traditional english bearskin. Could I get away with it at parties?
We drank some seriously spicey bloody mary's and headed off into the sunset, which my outfit happened to match perfectly.
