we love our books

By now our readers know that wonder | wander | women are bookworms who love our reading collections with an insatiable passion.

As independent working women living in urban hubs, our compact living spaces rarely allow for much. Lucky for us we have always managed to find our own creative solutions.

We have an abundance of hacks and imaginative ways to optimize and maximize our way around the challenge of having more books and shelves without crowding ourselves out of our home life.

London Town: oddments and curiosities

Living close to the centre of town eliminates the need for public transport. Experiencing city life at a walking pace changes the way wonder | wander | women see our adopted hometown, revealing little details we would miss if zooming by on a bus or bike.

The Lion and the...horse; the Scottish Unicorn has lost its horn!

oddments and curiosities at Dover Street Market

Dover Street Market is famous among fashionistas. The brainchild of Comme des Garcons designer Rei Kawakubo, the very modern five-story building on Dover Street is nothing like the city's free-for-all markets - it's the most exclusive retail centre for high-end designs fresh off the runway. Comme des Garcons, Alaia, Alexander McQueen and other Fashion Week brands line the racks and shelves.

A sample of the brands available. 

Our friends enjoyed their shopping, but wonder | wander | women ended up doing what we often do - wandering off in a new direction, completely distracted by the charm of Dover Street Market's decor.
