Csee Boutique, Cobham, Surrey
cSee opened its doors in February 2009, led by Cara & Hayley Mitchell and pet Pug Betty aka PIGGY. They each share a vision of creating a concept store dedicated to personal style! It is a labour of love to seek out “the best” in ready to wear and life style collections from established designers as well as up and coming & exciting niche labels. Csee boutique and all thats within is for fashionistas everywhere!“I think the idea of mixing luxury and mass-market fashion is very modern - wearing head-to-toe designer has become a bit passe. It’s a new era in fashion - there are no rules.... It’s all about the individual and personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming designers all together” - Alexander McQueen.

We haven't personally been to this Csee boutique in the flesh, but judging by the designer selection and how thought out the website is were guessing it's worth a try! If you do get a chance to check out 'Csee', then please let us know your comments! Bx

Beautique - Viva Violetta, Rye, East Sussex
Beauty editor Karena Callen (ex-Red, ex-Elle) has opened the kind of beautique that frankly you'd be happy to stumble upon in any corner of our fair isles. In fact, it's in Rye (East Sussex), a convenient hop-skip-and-a-jump from Jo's home town of Hastings - but definitely worth a pilgrimage from much, much further afield.
What will you find? Beautiful Miller Harris fragrances, the cutest discoveries from Sussex-based Juliette at Home (loving the teacup candles and the gorgeously gift-wrapped soaps), This Works skincare and bath oils (we swear by Deep Calm), Adrianne's vintage-inspired jewellery, Max Benjamin candles, Cartolina cards (our favourite), and lingerie from Tallulah Love, which comes in powder-style boxes.
Viva Violetta stoks vintage items too, aswell as Paul & Joe, Narciso Rodriguez fragrances, and - fingers crossed - the amazing perfumes of Serge Lutens, which will definitely be a fragrant Sussex first. If you're lucky, you'll find Karena there, too: as lovely, clever and drily funny a beauty editor as you could hope to meet. And if you're very lucky, she might answer your beauty conundrums.
