Since then, we’ve eaten our way across London, discovered hidden gems, explored exhibitions and built a growing list of father-daughter dates that have completely transformed our relationship.

Some of my favourite memories with my dad have come from simply spending quality time together. Whether that’s lunch in Soho, an afternoon wandering around an exhibition, or stopping for gelato after a haircut, it’s often the simplest moments that end up meaning the most.

The British Social Season Escapes Worth Leaving London For | My Soho Times

What is it about the British summer season that inspires people to embrace the joy of dressing up?

Maybe it is the promise of Pimms in the sunshine, countryside glamour, statement hats, or simply the excuse to escape London for the day. Either way, after recently attending the Royal Windsor Horse Show for the first time, I finally understood the appeal.
