90th Post - October Overview

Finally, here are my recommendations for September, hope you enjoy them and find them interesting to watch, listen and eat. In the meantime, October has a lot to offer especially in London, so head this month and take in all the best new events, exhibitions and best events in the capital.

How do you look today? You know image is everything. But under those perfect clothes and perfect smiles, everyone has their not-so-perfect secrets. Lucky for me, nothing can stay hidden forever. Whether the truth's in the diary or the Daily News, once it's out it will change everything. Let the chips fall where they may. Along with the husbands and boyfriends.  The French say, "plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose." Sounds romantic. But all it means is the more things change the more they stay the same. Outsiders remain on the outside. At least for now. And the wild cards just keep getting wilder. But even the same characters can start to play new power games. And old stars can cease to shine. What did I say about letting the chips fall where they may? See you soon -- N

Kew Gardens is already a pretty banging place to while away an afternoon. It was, lest we forget, voted best garden in the whole world quite recently. You don’t win such accolades by accident. You win them by being fucking great. And that’s what Kew is.

The Richmond plant precinct (hard to think of synonyms for ‘gardens’ tbh) is about to get even more fucking great. Throughout the month of October it’s embracing autumn with a festival simply called ‘Japan’. For dedicated ‘Nihonophiles’ like myself, that is great news.

But, if you feel like relaxing this month then put your feet up and enjoy Vogue magazine, full of celebrity gossip, style and secrets!! Hope you all enjoy my recommendations and have a great time in October...

See you in November, when I'll be sharing style secrets for Winter, places to go and things to do and buy and get you ready for this Christmas season. Have Fun... xxx
