Dedicated followers of fashion
Consider yourself a dedicated follower of fashion? Great. You've come to the right place. In the first of our regular columns from our Club of style obsessives, writer and fashion blogger for The Guardian newspaper, Beth Druce reveals what's currently hot in the lives of London fashionistas
The fashion hangout
Since the world's most famous fashion school Central Saint Martins moved here last year, Granary Square in King's Cross has become a hub for the stylish in London. Come for the food, the festivals and an enjoyable dose of trend-spotting.
The quintessential British buy
Tartan dominated the catwalk at the autumn/winter fashion shows; its strong British heritage working its way onto oversized postman's coats and knitwear staples. Check out Stella McCartney's pastel-hued designs; they're the pick of the crop.
The must-have piece
Quirky, irreverent jewellery is all the rage right now, and the perfect accessory to the city's cutting edge cool. Head to Dover Street Market and deliberate over pieces by British designer Hattie Rickards.
The stylish eat
Meat and smoke are the it-words for eating out this autumn, and Soho haunt Pitt Cue Co set the bar high with their seasoned, spicy flavours and rye whiskey cocktails. With just 30 seats, it's permanently packed.
The next big thing
Believe it or not, the Chelsea boot is making a comeback as the go-to shoe for stylish men on the move. Try Alexander McQueen's for size if you want to trend-set, or Church's for a classic, everyday look.
