Have I told you about...

A nice juicy list of things I like / good things to click on. Quick-n-easy!

I’ve been meaning to start this little series on here for a while, alas TIME is always my biggest downfall - where does it go? Why don’t I have any? Why can’t I put my damn phone down? WHY / HOW is it September already!

With that in mind I know we don’t all always have time to read these newsletters in full - if at all - I do a lot of ‘saving it for later’ for a peaceful moment with a cuppa that sometimes never comes.

So, lets keep it snappy (not my forte I know), this is some quick links (more info less imagery) to click on for all the juicy things I’ve seen / read / consumed / bought / thought / or (been) taught recently.

From fashion to food, all the feels to feel good, interiors to I-think-about-this-all-the-time, reads to recipes to randomness. Grab that copa de vino and enjoy!

HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT….

— White Rabbit Red Rabbit by Iranian writer Nassim Soleimanpour. No rehearsal, no director, a different actor each night and a script waiting in a sealed envelope on stage. Book now it’s selling out!

My friend sent this to me and we’ve got tickets for Ralf Little’s performance end of October. Really reasonably priced too at £30.

— Bonnie & the Gang, the coolest jeans for small… or tall. A kidswear brand but I ordered these for myself in an age 16 😂 (which are slightly too big, I’m 5’4, size 8 and yes, 36 years old. I knew I should have gone age 14!).

— Julius Roberts chicken sandwich, this sauce was transformative. And so easy. If you don’t follow him already, DO, you won’t regret it (an angel in the kitchen, a devil in the… isn’t there a saying along those lines?).

— Zara’s Fish Comb. If I needed a comb this would B it.

Though she’ll have a fishy…. for £12.99.

— Soma’s Leaf, one of my very best cocktails (like a gimlet, but smoother, spicier). So good I even venture to Soho on a Saturday night for this, which, if you know London, is saying something (the Saturday night crowd getting home on the tube becomes a game of ‘avoid the glass, vomit, discarded clothing’. Although we often have so many Leaf’s we end up staying until it has to be a taxi home).

— Mulberry x Rejina Pyo - a genius collaboration; something I think Mulberry have needed to do for a while to get back in the game and appeal to a bit more of a ‘cool crowd’ again (ahh the Alexa days of yore. My era at Mulberry’s buying & merch team).

And I do love this shiny satchel, feels so Mulberry, but slicker, a tad sexier and, well, modern. Exactly what they should B doing.

Based on a Mulberry archive piece (not the infamous Roxanne bag which it reminds me of) updated with that contemporary Rejina style - there’s something so classic cool about it. Although at £995 it is pricey compared to Rejina Pyo’s other bags / some of Mulberry’s smaller satchel styles. I feel £750 might have been the sweet spot.
