Best shops in London part 1

Being a naturally competitive person, i tend to like to keep amazing things to myself when I find them. However, as it's a Friday, I have decided to share some gems - mainly in the form of Best Shops in London, parts 1-?

The most deserving shop of this title is the fabulous Shop At Maison Bertaux, hidden beneath London's best cake shop - Maison Bertaux on Greek Street in Soho.

The blurb on the website says it all really:

Shop at Maison Bertaux is Soho's best kept secret...but word's spreading fast! We're now one year old and our regulars can't get enough of our APC, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Eley Kishimoto and Obey with jewelry by Vivienne Westwood Yura and Princess Tina. You'll love our taste, you'll taste the cakes upstairs and then you'll be HOOKED!

The owner posts up video clips of the new collections as they come in on her blog: http://www.shopatmaisonb.com/blog/

My recent purchases from their include:
Sonia Rykiel 'Paris' top
A.P.C 60's style coat
A.P.C sailor smock
Sonia Rykiel woolly hat with bow detail.

Now promise me you won't buy all of the great stuff before I get there! Look out for the Spring Eley Kishimoto collection

Below is one of the vids from the blog - new Obey collection, posted Nov 07
