 
 Lovely purple winter coat by Katherine Hooker. 
 
  
  I love Rae Jones's beautifully simple and elegant shoe designs. She's selling her work on the really impressive new Young British Designers site.

  Long-time collaborators Jessica Ogden and APC's Jean Touitou have produced a really limited range of quilts (in APC shops from 28 October) using up scraps of APC and Madras fabrics from years gone by. Off-cuts of gingham, checks and stripes have been stitched together into seven different designs (with only 30 of each being produced) that would not look out of place in a Colorado log cabin. So up my street.

 These bags from Lost Property of London are made from 100% recycled materials - combining coarse coffee sacks and salvaged leather with delicately pretty remnants of Liberty-print.

  Urban Outfitters have just launched One of a Kind - a small collection of vintage things only available online. Personally, I'd have to be absolutely blown away by a second-hand dress to spend upwards of £70 on it (when I can get something similar down my local charity shop), but I do think they've styled them nicely.

  Sally's silk Somerville Scarves are about a millions times more lovely in the flesh than they look here. Really show-stoppingly nice. I have my eye on one of these spotty ones.

  I love the look of this newish London label, Colenimo. Their recent summer collection was inspired by traditional English seaside holidays - so there were deckchair-stripe prints and sailor-style dresses. Spotted at Couverture.

 Laura Bailey's jewellery collection for Made is really nice. And as it's all made from glass beads, leather and recycled brass (hence it's eco-credentials), it's all affordable, too.

What could be more cheerful on a drizzly day than a bright yellow anorak? I love this one by yummy mens' label Albam (I think it looks awesome on her). Aubin & Wills also did a lovely sunflower yellow Sou’wester, though it's now - sadly - sold out.
