London's best shopping events

Moxham Pop-up

It’s all leather and metal cuffs when it comes to Moxham’s striking new collection of jewellery, and we like it. Inspired by Egyptian mythology, Moxham's chunky belt designs turn the idea of jewellery as merely an accessory onto its head. Head to their pop-up shop in Seven Dials, which will be running until May 24.

Seven Dials 20 percent Traffic Free Shopping Night

As summer approaches and evenings become longer, indulge in some after-work shopping in Seven Dials. On Thur May 30 – for one night only – over 120 stores including Urban Outfitters, Orla Kiely, She Uemura and Twenty8Twelve will be open until 9pm. Do as the Italians do and take a passeggiata along the pedestrianised streets, slurping alcoholic ice creams from the Twisted Ice Cream Cocktail Parlour and tapping your toes to Lee Hume’s DJ set. There’ll even be a burlesque display from Coco De Mer where you can see sexy smalls modelled on contortionists. Ouch!

BeautyMART pop-up

The Balcony Gardener

Creating floral beauty in small outdoor spaces is a must for any aspiring city gardener, and luckily for green-fingered wannabees the Balcony Gardener is opening up its first ever pop-up shop. The Balcony Gardener works to help you transform your urban garden, and provides heaps of inspiration to help you do so. As well as showcasing a variety of containers and pots, there will also be a ‘Museum of Terrariums’, ideal for those wishing to grow plants more suited to warmer climes than chilly Blighty.

A Weekend of Blitz Magazine

Nineties grunge might be big right now, but the glitz and excess of the ’80s can’t be topped. With that in mind, head down to the ICA this weekend to celebrate the publication of ‘As Seen in Blitz: Fashioning ’80s Style’ – a new book chronicling the rise and demise of Blitz magazine by former fashion editor Iain R Webb. Founded in 1980 – just as Maggie T came to power and new romanticism began to eclipse punk style – Blitz documented what was happening on London’s streets and within its creative enclaves. Along with The Face and i-D magazine (then part-owned by Time Out founder Tony Elliott), Blitz was instrumental in shaping the style of the era. The ICA’s dedicated Blitz programme includes an exhibition showing highlights from the book and talks with key Blitz players including cover-boy Barry Kamen, Body Map designers Stevie Stewart and David Holah and make-up artist Louise Constad. Cult ’82 avant-garde film ‘Liquid Sky’ will also be playing for those partial to stylised alien invasions. A chance to relive the ’80s for one weekend only.

Set close to the salubrious surrounds of Primrose Hill, shoppers can browse through a selection of period dresses, coats and jackets from as little as £10 and upwards. Speciality stalls toting hats, shoes and jewellery are also on hand to help you find the perfect accessory to complement your unique fashion find.

Camden Lock Fridays

Punks in studded leather boots co-exist with vintage molls at Camden Lock Market and throughout the spring and summer months, We Make London markets will be joining them. Running every other Friday until September, there will be a carefully created emporium of stalls selling candles from M&J London, clothing from statement tee designers Dead Gent and brightly coloured crockery from Dione Sylvester. Operating on alternative Fridays will be the City & Country’s Farmers’ Market, which includes meat from naturally reared livestock and high quality veggies and preserves.
