One of the abiding gems of London, Spitalfields Market is a lovely mix of vintage fashion, art, food and little independant stalls stuffed with shiny trinkets and retro paraphernalia. Favourite purchases include burlesque (obsess much?) corsets from FairyGothMother, Banksy prints from Smudge Gallery, and more sunglasses and headscarves than you can shake a stick at!If you've come over all 'Cor, blimey Guv'nor' whilst trekking through East London, Square Pie offer you sustenance in the form of, well, pies! (however they are closed on Saturday)
If you haven't caught the vintage bug by the time you're done, then there's something wrong with you. But if you have, and it's terminal, then head to Hollywood themed salon Pimps and Pinups on Lamb Street. You don't have to get a beehive, but you might as well...
If you're there this Saturday, raise your arms above your head and shout 'La Vie London!!!!' and we'll have tea.
