LFW pop ups.
The B-Store POP IN at Selfridges, Topshop’s offerings, (makeup masterclasses by MAC, hair advice from Kate’s coiffeur James Brown, and stitching with Sew Much Fun), and shoes from Hetty Rose at our favourite frozen yogurt stop, Snog. After that, head over to Anya Hindmarch’s Sloane Street boutique for bags and cupcakes, where The Primrose Bakery pops up on the 22nd.

Selfridges Windows.
With the news that London Fashion Week is under threat and could be forced to downsize to a mere four days of shows, showcasing the capital’s emerging talents and established names seems more pertinent than ever. Decked out in Gothic style, the windows feature Alexis Mabille, who will be stocked exclusively in Selfridges come Autumn, Katie Eary head and body pieces, and young London based designers Fleet Ilya’s elaborate and conceptual "Restraint" collection.
Psssst!
Online shopping is always a good call in our books, especially around Fashion Week. Head over to Koh Samui’s new website for some designer classics, Donna Ida online for all your denim needs, and Koodos and Oli for your Fashion Week must-haves. Koodos has teamed up with four big Vauxhall Fashion Scout names, including Victim fashion street and Hemyca, whilst the Oli Boutique takes stock of On/Off’s talent with Delphine Wilson and Steph Aman.
