Here's what the stylist and personal shopper had to say—and for a behind-the-scenes look at that sun-kissed tennis event, keep scrolling.

DO
DEBUG: core/paragraph
Ride the Thames Clipper to really take in the sites. Rent a bike. Make an early morning visit to Kempton Market—it’s worth it! Or an early morning visit to Chelsea Flower market. Take a trip to Chiswick for antique shops, have a stroll in Hampstead Heath, ideally with a pooch, followed by a dip in the lido. Have a really long bath—so English! And smile lots.
