The List
This week’s List is brought to you by tie dye, checks, hand washing and some serious holiday dreaming. Here are the things I’ve been looking at, thinking about, and sometimes even adding to basket.
From left to right:
If you’re a forever fan of tie-dye (and I am) then feast your eyes on this Isabel Marant tee, almost half price in the Liberty online sale. GO! Was £135, Now £70
The nicest flowers I’ve received in a long time. Peckham-based florist SAGE have started a weekly delivery service. If you like Grace and Thorn, you will love what Iona and Romy are doing at SAGE . A small arrangement (pictured), is £30 with free local delivery.
Original choice? No. But is this the only hand soap that doesn’t leave my hands red, dry and sore with all this extra hand-washing we are doing? Yes it is. Resurrection Handwash, Aesop at Cult Beauty, £27
An oversized smock dress in a classic checked print. This would work really well as a non-maternity maternity style also £95, Stories
Hotel Magique in Paris is my go-to for interesting original prints. Even better, you have the option to order online and receive it already-framed. Perfect for a last-minute gift, or if you’re the kind of person who buys prints and then takes 7 months to frame them. Ahem…. Hotel Magique, Black Apple art print, £35.36 or £61.84 framed
I am inexplicably drawn to this lilac open weave cardigan. Part vintage granny, part 70’s bohemian living in a beach house in California. I like it, and I’m not sure why.
Cardigan, Zara, £19.99
A pair of printed linen shorts I splurged on a couple years ago have proven to be one of my most-worn summer buys. These pink hand-dyed ones are next on my list. Faithfull the Brand at Net a Porter, £152
Arket has a knack for making jackets that look far more expensive than they are. This cropped cream denim style would work really well in your wardrobe if you wear a lot of high waisted styles. £79, Arket
For old school paper and post type comms, these personalised notecards from Papier are just the ticket. Also a great housewarming gift, as you can include an address. Personalised Notecards, Papier £20 for 10
This simple black linen tank has a flattering front and back v-neck, not as easy to find as you’d expect. Strap linen top, Mango, £15.99
Anyone else become obsessed with laying the table nicely for these many, many lockdown meals? This linen checked style would make even fish and chips (my personal fave) look fancy. Linen tablecloth,£79.99, Zara Home
This fragrance might just be my new favourite scent. Like a more masculine, and slightly woody version of something like Eccentric Molecules. Perfume, Tom Daxon Sicilian Wood, £105 for 50ml
