Heritage Prints & Iconic British Design
This is the heart of the Liberty aesthetic: beautiful prints, craftsmanship and that slightly nostalgic British charm that never goes out of style.
I always end up coming back to Liberty London when I want something that feels a bit more special. The prints are just so pretty and it’s one of those places where even a small purchase feels like a treat.

I feel like you can’t go wrong with Morris & Co. The prints are just one of those things that always look good, no matter how you use them.

I always forget about Sanderson and then come back to it and remember how good it is.

I’ll always have a soft spot for Cath Kidston. It’s not really the same anymore and most of the shops are gone but the prints still have that really nostalgic, cosy British feel.

Somehow always end up with another Emma Bridgewater mug. They just make everyday things feel nicer.

British Lifestyle & Gifting
These are the brands I always go back to when I want something that feels a bit more special or giftable.
I don’t use Jo Malone all the time but when I do it always feels like a bit of a treat. The scents are just really easy to like.

What I like about Molton Brown is it just does the basics really well. The scents are clean, not too strong and it feels a bit more considered than most everyday products.

If you struggle to switch off in the evenings NEOM is worth it. The sleep range is genuinely calming and the scents are strong enough that you actually notice them.

If you want that hotel-style bedding at home The White Company is one of the easiest places to get it. The sheets are soft, the colours are simple and it just works without overthinking it.

What sets Bamford apart is the focus on natural ingredients and sustainability. It’s one of the few brands where you feel like the whole thing - product, sourcing, packaging - has been thought through properly.

Effortless British Fashion
Simple, wearable and never overdone.
Barbour is one of those things you end up keeping for years. It’s not about trends, it just works, especially when the weather’s a bit rubbish and you need something reliable.

I don’t buy loads from ME+EM but when I do it’s usually something like trousers that I end up wearing all the time. The fit is just better than most.

Whistles is where I go for easy, everyday pieces. Things like knitwear, dresses and simple staples you don’t have to think too much about.

Reiss is where I go when I need something a bit smarter that still feels easy to wear. Things like blazers or dresses that look polished but don’t feel too formal.

I don’t buy loads from TOAST but when I do it’s usually something I keep for ages. It’s things like linen dresses or knitwear that just feel really nice to wear and a bit different from everything else.
TOAST
Quintessential British Home & Gifts
Cosy, thoughtful and very British. These are the brands I always think of for easy gifts or things for the home.
If you’re not sure what to buy someone Fortnum & Mason is a safe bet. The tea and biscuit tins are especially good.

If you want something a bit different from the usual gift, Biscuiteers is a really good option. The iced biscuits look great and feel more personal than standard chocolates.

If you want classic tableware that still feels relevant, Wedgwood is a good place to look. It’s elegant without being too delicate to use.

If you want tableware you can use all the time without worrying about it, Denby is a really good option. It’s durable, simple and it still looks good on the table.

This is my “I’ll just have a quick look” shop that somehow turns into leaving with three things I didn’t plan to buy. Very good for gifts that feel a bit more fun and not obvious.

Missoma feels a bit more trend-aware than classic jewellery brands but still wearable day to day. Good if you want something slightly more styled.

This is my “I don’t know what to wear but this will work” jewellery. It just goes with everything and saves a lot of effort.

If I want to buy jewellery that feels like a proper piece (not just something I’ll wear for a season), I usually end up at Astley Clarke.
