LDF
Posted on September 18, 2012
Shoreditch is buzzing with LDF madness.
Now that I’m scheduled to ‘baby-time’ I won’t be visiting the plethora of local previews this eve but I did get a chance to pop into a few places earlier today….
SCP‘s Design Department Store is looking as promising as ever, showcasing lovely new products and ranges that include more quirky creatures and accessories from one of our favourite designers, knit-ware extraordinaire Donna Wilson (circus arm-warmers and a badger cushion for me, please!); the Luna and Curious trio were sporting coordinating outfits (coordinating with each other and, wait for it, …. the store. Totally unplanned, or so they said) – they’re previewing the Drawing Room this eve; and the Crystal Bulb pop-up shop at Lee Broom is totally adorable – a sawdust-covered floor and raw wood fittings showcase hundreds of cut glass lamps (I now want to festoon my ceiling with an abundance of those lovely sparkly things – see last post for more details of this yummy product, coming to Caravan sooooooon!).
Here’s to a fab festival once again!
For further Eastern delights, along with the general festival lowdown, visit the official LDF website here and follow the Icon design trail here.

Bank Holiday Book Signing
Posted on August 29, 2011
I’ve just returned from a quick trip to Amsterdam where I met up with my friend Anna at her shop Het Grote Avontuur and signed a few copies of my books. Regardless of the rain outside, Anna’s shop is always a sunny space.
Even though it was a flying visit we managed to fit in a wander at Nordermarket and enjoy the compulsory apple pie – but of course!
