Front row: The party girls' go-to Geiger
Lovers of fabulous footwear, rejoice! This weekend sees the opening of the first Kurt Geiger London boutique (the fashion-forward upscale line from the KG brand) at Selfridges Oxford Street in London.
SHOES, £129, Kurt Geiger London, kurtgeiger.com
Some styles will be exclusive to the new store, including these embellished flats (above), which I’ve had my eye on for while. I’ll be wearing mine at summer celebrations or to jazz up jeans and a tee. If you’re in the area today, pop in and join the opening-day celebrations, which include readings from the Psychic Sisters (if you dare!).

JEWELLERY WITH A CONSCIENCE
New brand Lark & Berry is putting the sparkle into sustainable. It uses only conflict-free diamonds and gems (identical to your average stones, but cultivated 100 per cent ethically – not mined – and with some of the highest clarity ratings in the business) without losing any of the glamour that should come with fine jewellery. Its offerings (utterly desirable to say the least) hit the sweet spot between luxury and fashion jewellery – so a well placed hint pre-birthday or anniversary wouldn’t be out of the question.
RINGS and BRACELETS range from £300 to £20,000 for premium; more affordable styles between £300 and £600, larkandberry.com
