How gorgeous is this dress? It’s one I wore in t How gorgeous is this dress? It’s one I wore in the charity fashion show a few weeks ago. It’s by Toulouse-based @kali_yog which is a lovely ethical brand that I hadn’t heard of before. There is only one, yes one, UK stockist and that is @piccadillymainstreet in the beautiful West Yorkshire village of Haworth (home to the Brontës). It means it’s highly unlikely you’ll meet/see anyone else wearing this dress either in real life or here on Instagram.

What a weekend! We saw the King and Queen on their What a weekend! We saw the King and Queen on their way to and from the abbey. In the carriages behind were the Wales and Edinburgh families with the Princess Royal following on horseback. We couldn’t believe how close we were to the balcony- to actually see the Royal Family and to see the fly past was just amazing. 
A weekend we’ll never forget! 🇬🇧👑🥂

Yesterday- for the first time- I went to Haworth, Yesterday- for the first time- I went to Haworth, famous of course for the Brontes. I chose the outfits from @piccadillymainstreet that I’ll be modelling in the charity fashion event at @cobblesandclay on Friday night (details in my previous post). Piccadilly is such a fabulous shop- beautiful independent clothing and accessory lines and the loveliest staff. I’m really looking forward to the fashion show but also to spending more time in Haworth- definitely worth a day out.

We dined at @cheftomshepherd’s Michelin Star restaurant @rest_upstairs. (Tom happens to be their son). If you watched the latest series of @greatbritishmenu you’ll have seen Tom and his stunning dishes. We had the most amazing time and it was a privilege to meet Tom and his team. The food deserves a blog post and a grid carousel of its own. Coming soon…
