Fashion month is over. For the past few seasons we have posted playlists with some of our favourite tracks from the catwalks, and this season is no different. In this post we present to you, 15 of our favourite tracks from the Spring/Summer 2011 shows. The songs are as different as the collections – some are edgy, some are classic and some are completely unexpected.
I’ve heard so many people talking about ‘the lovely church street’ around Stoke Newington and now finally I’m living in the neighborhood. A girlfriend and I was looking for a late lunch place and then we landed in this magical mint colour tea house. It’s a mother-and-daughter’s business and simply named as ‘Tea House’.
Beautiful displays…
They have recently expanded their business to next door, so here’s a view of the other room. A group of girls were having afternoon tea and as well as fun with their knitting club…how cute?!
…and this is our side. Where we were sitting was right next to the window on a round table.
…we do need the space of 4 although we were 2, because we were ordering lots of things…Robois tea, Cappuccino, Quiche with Salad, home-made creamy pea soup and bread scone, Cheese Macaroni with Salad… …loose leaf Robois tea tastes so much better than the tea-bag version, highly recommend.

I’m really in love with this fresh mint colour, and later of the day, I saw this Balenciaga little number to be carefully cherished inside a glass box in Selfridges. I hope you’re loving it too?
There’s no doubt that choosing the right music for a fashion show is important. I once read an interview with a designer who said that it can be compared to selecting the right soundtrack to a movie. It not only sets the mood, it also helps the spectators understand the designer’s vision and inspiration. I’ve compiled a list with some of the tracks used by designers for the spring/summer 2010 shows. Listening to some of these songs makes me wonder – what do these songs tell us about the collections? The inspiration? The person who buys them? Or even the label or designer?
