Notting Hill<\/a>. It\u2019s where I bought my first designer pieces when I moved to London. And the Old Cinema in Chiswick for furniture, jewellery and designer handbags. It\u2019s a real hidden gem.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Harris-Reed-lmrl88a7.jpeg\")

Sarah Brick<\/p>\n
What\u2019s the best meal you\u2019ve had?<\/p>\n
Brat. An old friend of mine from the States and I had the soft-shell blue crab, flatbreads and incredible organic wine. That was also the night I realised I was allergic to shellfish because after eating the best, buttery, delicious crab legs, my face broke out in hives.<\/p>\n
What would you do if you were Mayor for the day?<\/p>\n
I\u2019d have a gender swap day where everyone would have to dress as the opposite gender. I think it would make society more forgiving and understanding and people would learn a lot about themselves.<\/p>\n
Who is the most iconic Londoner?<\/p>\n
Zandra Rhodes, because she\u2019s such a massive part of culture in London. She looks incredible and she\u2019s still just being her iconic self. And her apartment is beyond insane.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s the best thing a cabbie has ever said to you?<\/p>\n
One cabbie didn\u2019t realise I was American until the end of a 45-minute trip from the airport. I\u2019m so embarrassed about my Valley accent that I was so happy he thought I was a full-fledged Brit.<\/p>\n
Have you ever had a run in with a police officer?<\/p>\n
In my uni days, I probably ran once or twice from a house party. I have really long legs and what I\u2019ve realised in life is that you don\u2019t have to be the fastest runner, just not the slowest!<\/p>\n
Where do you let your hair down?<\/p>\n
To literally let my hair down, I go to Ayana Spa in Holland Park. They do amazing massages at a great price. I frequent that place probably four times a month with all the travelling I do.<\/p>\n
Who do you call when you want to have fun?<\/p>\n
Florence Pugh. That girl knows where the good drinks are and you are always going to laugh the night away.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your biggest extravagance?<\/p>\n
My Dash water subscription. It\u2019s my obsession. My fridge looks like a Kardashian\u2019s.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s your London secret?<\/p>\n
Dressing up can get you into anywhere. If you look and act the part, you can sneak into any members\u2019 club, party or event. Act the part and don\u2019t let anyone stop you!<\/p>\n
Iman. When I went to the Met Gala with her the first time, she changed my life. Not just because of what it did for my career, but she was so strong, steadfast and iconic. She gave me so much wisdom and insight and strength.<\/p>\n
Vintage jewellery. Especially vintage rings \u2014 Georgian and Edwardian pieces. I\u2019m also a collector of knick-knacks that my husband thinks we don\u2019t need in our house. We have six blown-glass coral table toppers.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s your favourite work of art?<\/p>\n
Anytime they do a Francis Bacon exhibition in London it\u2019s my favourite.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s your top grooming spot?<\/p>\n
Josh Wood in W11. He\u2019s the man who changed me from a brunette to a redhead. Everyone in that salon is like family and they make me so happy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holland Park \u2014 I live there with my husband and it\u2019s our little Oscar Wilde\/Wes Anderson palace.
