Hide-and-seek

... but not in the case of this outstanding floor-length coat which simply presented itself and said: Buy me! All I know is that it hails from the Parisian label, Pellessimo and found its way across the Channel. Put together with a pair of twisted Levi's, Ras animal-print boots, and an ethnic bag from favourite charity, St Christopher's Hospice, it's a walk in the park. And even at dusk it's likely to startle the former farmlands of south London!

Isabel Marant pour H&M

Last night saw an exclusive shopping event preview: Isabel Marant pour H&M collection, in London's West End. The world, and his best-dressed wife, were out and about in H&M's store on Regent Street, sipping champagne, munching canapés, listening to DJs and making early-bird purchases. To the event, I wore the fakest of furs from the '70s; red leather trousers, featured in 'Double Leather' and 'Artists' Open House'; a pair of Ras boots; and an African woven bag, my latest find from favourite charity, St Christopher's Hospice.

The colours of summer

Popping into my neighbourhood farm shop, Franklins, for some summer 'necessaries' such as tangy tomato relish and delicious dulce de leche. Today, in a simple no-label, linen '60s turquoise shift, bought recently at vintage store: Mabel, Melbourne Grove, East Dulwich. Accessoried with pops of yellow in my Osprey bag and summer wedges. The unusual scarab necklace was a reasonable (and unexpected) find from St Christopher's Hospice on Lordship Lane - today!
