Carnaby Street

Massive coat hangers for entrance to Kingly Court

Crazily busy laundrette, just off Carnaby street 


Huge plug socket at the top of a building
Graphic and t shirt print shop with unique and unusual designs.

King's Road


King's Road, in Chelsea, can be associated with the swinging sixties and punk seventies. Although the area doesn't have any of its old character, it is still one of the best and most varied places for shopping. Especially the rich and beautiful like to shop in the one-off boutiques and designer stores.


Vivienne Westwood opened her shop, Sex, in 1971 on King's Road when punk was still big. Today, the name has changed into World's End, but it still sells Westwood's Anglomania range.


Go to the Chelsea Teapot if you're feeling like eating some cupcakes and having some tea. The decor makes the place even more welcoming, with its cute cups and pastel-coloured chairs.


Henry J Bean's Bar and Grill has one of the most famous beer gardens in London, and although the drinks weren't amazingly strong during happy hour(5 to 7pm),  the bar is still worth a visit.

If you get bored of the expensive shops down the road, go to the Saatchi Gallery instead. 

Knightsbridge





Harrods, 4th Floor
Vivienne Westwood Dragon Berry Shoes £110


We decided to stop this girl for her individual style mixed with mainstream trends. Animal print is huge this season and her faux fur coat is a must have for any girls wardrobe. The red Dr. Martins compliment her red hair really well and bring together her outfit as a whole. Overall she stood out from the crowd and didn't fit the expected style of a typical Harrods customer.


The superman jumper instantly grabbed my attention when I saw this girl in Harrods on the ladieswear floor. This strong popular graphic is the focal point of this outfit and the rest contributes to the simple and unique style. Her red glasses are really quirky and fun.


There was a huge amount of real fur in Harrords which has always been a strong political topic. I don't agree with the use of real fur.


This small corner cafe named Gran Caffe Londra was thriving when we exited Harrods and the beautiful cakes on display looked delicious but a slice of one wasn't cheap! 



This small hat boutique was hidden down a little alleyway next to a large construction site and is the perfect place to satisfy your needs for any type of hat, from winter wooly to trilby. The amazing white spiral staircase was the main focal point inside the store which added to the white antique style furniture. Marie Mercies' window display was outstanding, with so much going on the attention was still on the beautiful hats. This window is a must see in Knightsbridge! 


Delicious miniature cupcakes were available for as little as £2 (good for round there!) at the Knightsbridge Green Hotel.


We stopped this girl as she stepped off the bus, the orange scarf and teal winter coat clashed but complimented each other at the same time. I loved the over the knee socks and shoes. Overall her style was on trend with a personal twist. The flower in her auburn hair was cute.



New apartment/office buildings on Brompton Road.



The door man at Harrods looked really smart and typically English with his bowl hat and long coat. He was really happy and polite which made a lasting impression on me and my friend.


The doorman at the Sheraton Hotel.


This striking grey layered dress was in the window of Hollie de Keyser on Brompton Road. 



As we were walking towards the V&A Museum, this girl was walking the opposite way. Her necklace was an amazing pair of bright red lips. Her leopard print jacket is very on trend and paired with the necklace and black t-shirt look quirky and unique. She had a gorgeous white Vivienne Westwood shoulder bag which you can't quite see in this picture but was very typical Westwood.
