I loved the Chloe Alberry stand display at Decorex 2011, a veritable sweet shop for the interior design lover with baskets and baskets of goodies lined up for us to delve into.

I had a phone call a couple of weeks ago from a Facebook friend Sue, who owns Modiste, a fab little contemporary boutique I've shopped at in Stockport.

There are certain things universally accepted to give most girls what can only bluntly be described as the horn. Chocolate.... expensive shoes.... champagne.... diamonds..... money......
