My Interests
I’m a true Londoner and enjoy many of the wide and varied activities that London affords. I also travel for much of the year and am always keen to explore new cities.
London’s Concierge
I absolutely adore arranging perfect London experiences for dates (Amex concierge has nothing on me!). If you’re new to the city or just visiting, let me be your ideal tour guide. I’ll take you to places you won’t find in the guidebooks or on the usual lists. Let’s get lost in the city together.
Performing Arts
I make it a point to visit the theatre at least once a month, enjoying a mix of classic and contemporary productions. My favorite venues include the National Theatre, Royal Court, and Young Vic.
As a film buff, I can often be found in one of London’s many arthouse cinemas or attending international film festivals. I have a particular fondness for screwball comedies from the 1930s and classic noirs. My favorite film is likely Night of the Hunter. Why not join me in the dark? You can also contribute to my film collection through my wishlist.
Museums and Visual Arts
I love exploring the many art galleries and museums of London and hold memberships to most of them. This often allows us to enjoy time in exclusive members-only bars, which I’d be delighted to include as part of our date. I’m particularly looking forward to visiting Naomi in Fashion at the V&A and Six Lives: The Story of Henry VIII’s Queens at the National Portrait Gallery.
Food
I’m a true foodie, and one of my favorite pastimes is exploring London’s many mouthwatering restaurants. I adore beautiful classic dining rooms like Rules and Hawksmoor Air Street, but I’m equally at home in lesser-known, yet equally wonderful establishments. Whether you’re craving a three-star Michelin experience or a cramped, authentic, out-of-the-way spot, I can recommend the perfect place. Anthony Bourdain has definitely been a huge influence on me. If you’re visiting, I’d be happy to suggest a restaurant that suits your taste. I find it more exciting to discover restaurants before they earn their first star or attract huge queues. I prefer to set trends rather than follow them.
Lingerie and Fashion
I have an extensive collection of lingerie, both new and vintage. Being unusually and naturally well-endowed, I have become somewhat obsessed with collecting beautiful pieces in my size. My collection includes corsets, waspies, suspenders, bodysuits, bras, bralettes, knickers, and thongs. Some of my favorite brands are Scantilly, Harlow and Fox,, Edge O’Beyond, Studio Pia, Katherine Hamilton, and Buttress and Snatch. If you’d like to treat me, my sizes are 30GG or 30H for bras, Large (UK 14/US 10) for knickers, Medium (UK 12/US 8) for suspenders, Large (or 4/5) for hosiery, and 24 inches for corsets.
I also adore beautifully made clothing and have a large collection of Vivienne Westwood and vintage pieces. At the top of my wishlist right now is a made-to-measure suit from G&G, Savile Row’s first-ever women-only tailors.
Current Affairs
My academic background is in Social Science and you’ll be likely to find me reading Private Eye, political memoirs or a history book rather than fiction. Gifts of reading material are very much appreciated. I am also a supporter of many charities and spend a lot of my free time doing voluntary work.
