It would be so great to be in London during that time………….
Yep!
Wow! Would love to see a write-up on NST from someone who attends these…anyone? 🙂
Hopefully Christine (our London guest shopper) is going to write about it…
That would be cool!!!
I will try to get over my dislike of Harrods and visit it. It could be very interesting or totally naff.
If nothing else, bet they have some beautiful vintage bottles on display.
Oh boy! I can’t wait – I am Guerlie girl and the Guerlain event is on my birthday! Will report back- with pleasure!
Oh perfect — hope you can get a space!
Would give my eye teeth to attend a few of these, though my work plans may not permit – I can’t get over the fact that they are free! That is not Roja Dove’s usual way of doing things, as I know to my cost (or my partner’s cost…) : – )
