Winter Diary: ’tis the season
Disco, The Bill Bernstein Photographs This photographic show pays tribute to New York’s disco scene and inspires you to go home via a vintage shop and pick up a sequined jumpsuit! We are plied with images of Bianca Jagger and Andy Warhol carving up Studio 54’s dance floor but it’s a breathe of fresh air to…
The Edit: Christmas
Yes, the sales are coming but sometimes patience is really not a virtue. January is a boring month to flaunt your buys, it’s far more fun to wear them in mulled wine and champagne season. Plus, if you’re starved of some gift inspiration…we have you covered. Click here for our Christmas Edit
The Edit: coats, coats, coats!
Chloe fur coat (pictured). Find the right coat (or two) as it will be your outfit for a whole season. Buy a few cheaper ‘whimsy’ ones but keep at least one smart, good quality coat that is a fail-safe.

Autumn Diary: sliding into party season
Impermanence: The Art of Microbiology Killing two cultural birds with one stone, this unique exhibition at Elena Shchukina’s slick and discreet gallery in Mayfair is well worth the visit this autumn. It focuses on the concept of impermanence, that all matter eventually collapses, and this can be seen through the work of Luke Jerram and…
The Edit: September
Summer to Autumn bridge: the ideal time to showcase impractical coats that barely keep you warm inside. Invest in a few staples and don’t go overboard, you’ll end up wishing you’d saved for the winter warmers! NB: ‘Normcore’ has reached saturation point; cue ‘Glamcore’ in time for the party season! Busy patterns/fabrics and a welcome end to beige hues… CLICK HERE FOR…
Meet: stylist, Felicity Landrock-Mettam
Explain your role, and what you do? As a fashion and interior stylist I work on briefs for clients right from the start. They may have a visual they love that I can work from or we can sit down together and discuss mood, intention, etc. and go from there. With fashion this will depend…

These guys will take you on a real Mexican food crash course. I’m talking Veal Cheeks with Creamy Sweet Potato Vanilla and black chichilo to chocolate textures with…
