I started watching #thesubstance last night but I had to turn it off as I knew it would give me nightmares (which it did!) but it’s a really beautiful film 😱

Adore this gate into China Town. It was made by traditional artisans in Beijing in the style of the Qing Dynasty and was installed in 2016. Looks so cool in the surrounding architecture🏮 #chinatown #architecture #wardourstreet #soho #london

Sad to hear that W.J.Frecklington passed away earlier this month. The Australian carriage builder had made 2 State Carriages for the British Royal Family, including the Diamond Jubilee State Carriage which was gifted to Queen Elizabeth II in 2014 👑 #wjfrecklington #theroyalmews #buckinghampalace

Incredible evening last night where we got to see B Åkerlund being interviewed by Daniel Lismore at Joe Corré’s Light House. Hearing about B’s amazing career styling everyone from Madonna to Beyonce to Ozzy Osborne was fascinating and inspiring. #bakerlund #daniellismore #lighthouse #lfw

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Lily Savage Mince Around Vauxhall. We had a wonderful time telling stories about the incredible life of Paul O’Grady and his alter-ego Lily. We plan to bring the walk back next year 💖 #lilysavage #paulogrady #lambethtourguides #vauxhall

A wonderful feature on Beryl Cook last night on C4 News who was born 100 years ago this week. Reminded me of this print I saw recently called ‘Dining In Paris’ at our favourite Soho French Restaurant, L’Escargot. Bon anniversaire Beryl! 🐌 #berylcook #art #lescargot #soho #london

Adore the Victorian tiles at the entrance of Durning Library, Kennington. Built in 1889, it’s a fascinating bit of architecture designed by Sidney Smith who was also the architect of Tate Britain 📚 #durninglibrary #victoriantiles #architecture #lambethtourguides #kennington

This is the moment that inspired us to create our Lily’s Mince Around Vauxhall walk, the unveiling of the new Rainbow Plaque for Paul O’Grady on Victoria Mansions where he used to live. The plaque was unveiled by Paul’s widow André Portasio and the project was created by the 1/3

A very sad day yesterday for Harvey Nichols. I worked there for almost 10 years and generally had the best time. To hear that they haven’t made a profit for 7 years is actually heartbreaking. I fear for the staff and business under the new ownership. Rest In Power HN 😎 #harveynichols #hnfamily

Adore this painting of Ellen Terry as Lady Macbeth by John Singer Sargent from 1889. Spookily enough, Jo and I were wandering through Tate Britain talking about Sargent and his paintings when I spotted this painting in a side corridor. A poignant moment 💚 #johnsingersargent #tatebritain
