Small and sweet

Sometimes it's great to hit the town and visit all the big stores.

In some of London's most famous department stores you can find practically anything and everything you need under one roof. It may not always be that easy to find what you want but eventually three cups of expensive tea and six buns later you will get there.

On the other hand there is something rather charming about going to buy that special dress for the summer ball in a little (expensive of course) boutique on the high street.

Quite often you will find something a bit different; for example labels that may not be stocked in the big store and which when you put it on you just know that no one else will also be wearing.

Naturally you will need new shoes and perhaps a bag to go...
