The lingerie from the small British brand Dora
Larsen is the most delicious – and comfortable
- around (bras from £52, knickers from £30;

Harris Wharf London
is my pick for an
ever-after coat in a
colour that’s either as
classic or as interesting
as you care to go
(£251; harriswharf
london.com).4
Happiness (and endless options) is a crisp
cotton grandad shirt in white or blue. Wear it
casual or dress it up with a statement necklace.
Mine come from Uniqlo (£24.90; uniqlo.com).5
I love a locket and the lockets I love most,
for their clever cross-fertilisation of a
contemporary with a Victorian aesthetic,
come from Kirstie LeMarque
(£595; kirstielemarque.com).10
I honestly don’t know
what I did before I
discovered Me+Em’s
satin track pants (£125;
meandem.com).8
Great quality at a great price, Aurora London’s
Gigi is the bag of dreams for a pretty down-
to-earth £149 (aurora-london.com).6
I live in Russell & Bromley flatform trainers.
All the comfort with a bit of extra lift
(£195; russellandbromley.co.uk).7
Felt is quite simply one of the most special
jewellery shops in the country, for new and
vintage pieces, but its website is well worth
a visit if you can’t make it to London
(£56 each; feltlondon.com).11
Essen’s foundation flats
have a cult following
among the fashion pack
for a reason. Slipper-like
in their comfort levels,
they also hit that sweet
spot between classic
and cool (£154;
essenthelabel.com).2
It’s the question
I get asked most
often: where do I
buy my jeans? And
my answer is always
the same: Raey (£140;
matchesfashion.com).3
I fell in love with the cult
Japanese hosiery brand
Antipast decades ago.
Its socks are works of
art for your ankles (£24;
maryqueenofsocks.com).
