It’s my Instagram friend James Gordon’s MIXED BUSINESS and I can promise you you’ll find treasures there like nowhere else. Divine and clever paper sculptures which will take your breath away, illustrations, watercolours, jewellery. If there’s a theme, it’s that everything is beautiful! The things this man creates from paper blow my mind!

Did you know all horses celebrate their birthday on 1 August (in the Southern Hemisphere anyway)? I didn’t, and I’m loving this discovery! To celebrate, The School is putting on a serious show over the weekend of 3 and 4 August. “Even if you have been to a Horses Birthday Fête before, I promise you this one will be different,” says stylist Megan, and you just know she means it!
