Not wanting the dreary weather to dampen our spirits this weekend, we headed over to South Kensington’s V&A Museum to have a look around their recently opened British Design exhibition.
In celebration of all that is brilliant about British design and creativity, the exhibition showcases some of the best architecture, fashion, music and art from 1948 to the present day. From Alexander McQueen’s infamous ‘Horn of Plenty’ collection to original Laura Ashley dresses and Britpop Blur videos, the whole exhibition is a visual feast.
We thoroughly recommend a visit to the V&A, especially if the weather insists on keeping us all housebound! Layer-up and keep warm under your waterproofs with a super-cosy Maddy Beanie, available to buy now at Net-A-Porter.
What will you be doing whilst the weather is more monsoon than May?

It’s another cold and wet day in London. Miserable weather and the sun is no where to be seen in sight, it’s the perfect opportunity to treat your self to a piece of Madeleine Thompson cashmere.
Keep warm in the draped wrap. Cut in the softest cashmere, it’s the perfect everyday wrap. In the choice of two colours, slip this sumptuous piece over your shoulders to go from school run to brunch dates in style…

Our PR team held the AW12 Press Day last week at the gorgeous Soho House in London. Many great fashion Editors attended the press day including Marie Claire, Vogue (Russia), Company, Cosmopolitan, the Daily Express and the stylists for Fearne Cottton, Holly Willoghby, and Tess Day. Everyone LOVED the new collection. Can you see the sneaky peak of the new elbow patches on the second image? Wow! We love an elbow patch, particularly on our favourite Madeleine Thompson cashmere cardi!

We LOVE flowers at Madeleine Thompson. Looking for a gift for a friend’s birthday or for yourself? We have searched high and low for the best florist. Forget those naff bunches of limp petals and head to Scarlet and Violet. Based in north London Scarlet and Violet create the most stunning bunches of flowers. Kate Moss bought her wedding flowers from here so if it is good enough for Kate….

Looking for an alternative place to wine and dine? The PR team recently visited Brunswick House Cafe in Vauxhall. In the midst of main roads and the hustle and bustle of London commuters lies this little treasure. Favoured by fellow south Londoner Florence Welch, the cafe is incredible. Samples fine foods and non fussy wines for the perfect night out. We highly recommend!
