When jeweller Annoushka Ducas asked creative polymath Nathalie Hambro to exhibit in her Chelsea shop, the result was never going to be a run-of-the-mill collaboration.

Rather than asking Nathalie simply to show her work at the Annoushka shop in Cadogan Gardens, Ducas suggested that Hambro remodel the entire store and retail space - jewellery cases and all.

And so Nathalie Hambro, whose career of many colours includes being an artist, fashion designer with designs in the permanent collection at the V&A in London and the museum at FIT in NYC, author of five cook books, art consultant for Phillips auction house, opens her show 'Tools' on 4th June.

"The tools that Nathalie uses are also very similar to the tools used at the jewellers bench," remarks Annoushka. "They evoke this wonderful feeling of craft, that is so often lacking in our modern world, and which I try to celebrate through my own work."

For regular visitors to the shop - expect a totally new industrial look, heavy on steel - a favourite material of Hambro's - with site specific works and sculptures.

'Tools' will surely be both an exciting clashing of personal styles alongside a broader meeting of minds.

Calling all Londoners; I've had a sneak preview of Mr Fogg's, the newest bar in town. And it's good.

Tucked down a lane off Berkeley Square, the new watering hole was for years a somewhat dodgy Irish pub. That was until Charlie Gilkes and Duncan Stirling (whose Inception Group also owns Chelsea speakeasy Barts, 80s themed nightclub Maggie's and Battersea pizzeria Bunga Bunga), started bombarding the owners with calls to buy the plot. Testament to the boys' tenacity - after a year they got the keys. Six months later and Mr Fogg's will be flinging it's doors open from 21st May.

Now I like a theme, but Charlie Gilkes has taken his love of Jules Verne's novel to a whole new level. The bar is how Gilkes imagines Phileas Fogg's Mayfair drawing room to look following his 'Round the World in 80 days' tripette. So from the (fake) blue plaque on the façade above a Victorian lantern, you enter a late C19th world with non-stop jokes; a sign that reads 'Beware of the Parrot', Phileas' 'crest' sandblasted onto martini glasses, lamps fashioned from rifle butts, a parrot cage chandelier and a portrait of Pongo his pet monkey.

"I like the idea that however many times someone comes here, they'll always spot a new Fogg reference," says Gilkes, whilst readjusting a (fake) elephant's foot stool.

Unlike the swathe of new Mayfair bars, Mr Fogg's is not members only. So whoever you are, get there early to bag the best seat beneath the hot air balloon for a Gin Fizz served in a world globe, delivered by a waiter in full military uniform (courtesy of Gieves and Hawkes), under the watchful eye of 'Bacchanologist' and former bar manager at The Connaught, Mark Jenner. And of course Phileas Fogg's faithful valet, Passepartout.

This weekend you might notice that London's fashioniest shops look a little empty, the streets are a little low on flamboyant dressers and that generally the city's glamour levels are down.

The simple reason is that any fashion lover worth their salt (white is so now), will be tucked inside the Southbank Centre for the 2nd annual Vogue Festival, attending talks and lectures by the industry's starriest, chicest and most successful names; Victoria Beckham in conversation with Vogue's editor Alexandra Shulman, Donatella Versace, creative director at Lanvin Alber Elbaz, Michael Kors alongside his friend and model Yasmin le Bon, Paul Smith and Alexa Chung, Mario Testino and Cara Delevingne.

And that's just a slice of what's shimmering on the main stages. Because the side-shows are equally twinkly; Dior and YSL beauty booths, a braid bar with some of the hottest hair stylists and very useful mentoring panels for budding journalists, designers, stylists and models.

Tickets are selling lickety-split, but there are a few left up for grabs. Then it's just about pulling together a knock-out look and heading for the Vogue portrait booth - frankly who hasn't dreamed of being a Vogue cover girl?
