The Marylebone Lifestyle
So, what is it that makes Marylebone so luxurious? Picture this; wake up in your deluxe apartment in The Chilterns and bask in plush interiors, then take a stroll down the majestic pavements of Marylebone admiring the old Georgian houses whilst making your way to Brasserie 108, on Marylebone High Street, indulging in afternoon tea with rosé champagne and strawberries with your friends. Afterwards, why not saunter on down to Selfridges in Oxford Street for a spot of retail therapy, here you can enjoy the extensive collection of luxury labels and the beauty hall of every woman’s dreams, it is only a short walk away so it would be rude not to. If the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street gets a little too much, then the various quaint boutiques in Marylebone itself, such as Huntergather and Oliver Bonas will allow you to peruse the shops without the commotion of Oxford Street. Once you and your wallet have had a nice day out, it is time to get ready to go out for dinner at Chiltern Firehouse, you may even bump into Kate Moss whilst you are in there as it happens to be one of her favourite spots in London.
