Top tea cosies: Super-deluxe style

Love tea cosy, £65, from the V&A shop.

This super-deluxe tea cosy is hand-embroidered by British fashion and interiors designer, Jan Constantine. Keep an eye out for her gorgeous Union Jack designs as well.

I'm loving your week of tea!
Oh the polka dot cardis were a real disappointment. There were loads of Comme De Garcon clothes on Oxford Street even in the afternoon.
