Breathing new life into the world of secondhand shopping, Mary Portas virtually invented the modern breed of upmarket charity boutique with her Living & Giving shops. Diehard bargain-hunters might not thank her for the price hikes, but Save the Children does. All the shops are carefully curated, but the Primrose Hill branch is one of the best for niche brands and fashion kudos. Enjoy a Narnia-style wardrobe changing room, and cross your fingers that your visit coincides with Victoria Beckham dropping by with a bulging bin bag (yes, she donates).
