Recently Lady Worthington and I were meandering around brick lane when we were gravitated to the most wonderous land of wonders that is luna & curious. It’s a menagerie of trinkets, jewelry, clothing and homewares – largely with a distinct ‘crafty but not crafts‘ feel to the pieces.
the Lady bought a feathered something-or-other, and being [...]
