We are the trigger happy sort. This is fact. Theres something rather fun about shopping online, simply pushing a button..and finding a little package of fashion goodies has arrived the next day. But (and this a big BUT!) When we do have the time there is nothing quite like a proper shop. Because the whole process (when performed properly) is a sensory experience, which requires shifting arse from chair, a little communication and actually trying things on. So we’re excited to hear Matches are placing the indulgence of high end shopping onto the pedistool it deserves with the creation of Matches No.23. A Georgian Townhouse in London’s Marylebone which will house everything from private shopping appointments, pop up stores, personalised trunk shows and even art exhibitions. Mr Miles was given a sneak peek yesterday evening for a Jonathan Saunders private sales evening, and left the rest of us reeling with jealousy. When is the next soiree? When oh when can the rest of drop by to No.23? Tell us, tell us, tell us!
