Johnny Rocket
Monday sees the start of the week-long Coutts London Jewellery Week and so if you need an excuse to pop into Johnny Rocket, this is it. The glorious little boutique on College Approach is a treasure trove of finds encompassing traditional and modern designs, pieces from up-and-coming designers and jaw-dropping jewellery from the Johnny Rocket duo, John and Niall, who are Coutts Jewellery Week ambassadors no less.
Pictured here are rings from the 'Cocktails' range - contemporary engagement rings and matching wedding bands using non-traditional precious and semi-precious stones. The bespoke engagement rings start at £500 and wedding bands from £250, making marriage fashionable again!

Hide All
Hide All is a charming, family-run gift shop in Greenwich Market specialising in leather goods.
One of our favourite pieces for this season is the ever-so-covetable Radley signature picture bag 'Without a paddle', showing the popular Scottie dog kitted out a boater and blazer, enjoying a summer's day punting, but doing all the hard work while his owner relaxes with a book...
The beautifully-made, gorgeously-pretty leather applique bag, which comes with a matching purse, costs £175. And this weekend (6-7 June) Hide All is offering 20 per cent off its Radley ranges.
