Shoreditch in London seems to be the home of all things trendy, so how could I not visit?! There were a couple of highlights, including brunch at The Breakfast Club (technically in Hoxton, but it's as close as makes no difference) and browsing through Labour and Wait, purveyors of old-school homewares you'd imagine the servants in Upstairs Downstairs using on a daily basis. Two items I'd particularly like to own are the enamel coffee pot and milk pan, below (images via the Labour and Wait online shop). Be sure to check it out if you're in the area.
