The fabric section is amazing. Mostly cottons and silks, which I know is not your style, but the design is pretty inspirational. Have a GREAT trip, if you get to go.

In that order. Wear the most comfortable shoes on Earth, because you will walk your feet off. Oh, how could I forget??!??! Liberty of London, especially for their button selection. And Lush cosmetics for yummy soaps and lotions. I vote V&A, Harrods and tea at the Ritz. In that order. Wear the most comfortable shoes on Earth, because you will walk your feet off.

It would be wonderful meeting up with you. V&A is a must to see. If you are interested there is painting exhibition on during that time in the Royal Academy of Arts where they are featuring French and Russian paintings. Also the Terracota soldiers are on display in the British Museum. For that I however suggest one goes and ques up early in the morning as they sell only 500 tickets per day on the spot which go very quickly as everything else is booked. Anyway let me know nearer the time perhaps we can meet up for a cup of coffee somewhere. Oh wow. It would be wonderful meeting up with you. V&A is a must to see.

I visited London once, a few years ago, and planned to spend my one free morning at the V&A. A train accident paralyzed the station I was to leave from that morning and long story short, my visit was greatly shortened by the time I actually got there. But from my experience, I could plan a whole trip to London based on days of wandering the collections at the V&A. In a word...*heaven*. V&A, V&A, V&A!!
