Paul Smith Props Sale

We love Paul Smith's Albemarle Store for its interior inspiration. The man certainly has an eye, and now you can too. Whilst this special furniture and props sale may not include any of Smithy's own far-flung finds, there will be plenty of colourful cushions, furnishing fabrics and unique pieces of design from his lovely label to turn your flat into a showcase of style. Fake it to make it.

10th-12 November, 9am-6pm,
37 Kingsway, Holborn, WC2B 6TP

TONIGHT
Buy a Better You

Yes, that was Scottee throwing the first handful of cake as one of Rihanna's rowdy entertainers on the X-Factor. But want to know what he'd really like to swap for a slice? A kiss, a cuddle and some Motherly love – all topics addressed in this exploration of the performance artist's turbulent childhood, as well as the launch of his EP and some insight into what you can do with a rolled up twenty. The Mayor of Camden will be doing the introductions – which beats Simon Cowell and the mysterious man with the booming voice any day.

Bistroteque, 23-27 Wadeson Street, E2 9DR. 8pm, £7.

SMOOCH
Kissing Christmas Tree

Ok, it's a bit schlocky, but if you're looking for a way to demonstrate the electricity between you and your partner without driving us all mental by kissing loudly on public transport, head to Covent Garden. Couples who smooch under the Kissing Tree will activate 50,000 red and white lights which officially opens today, with The Body Shop offering 'Pucker Up' stations to get your smackers in shape, and Pineapple Studio's Louie Spence and dance group PDG providing the entertainment. Pucker up peeps, and light up our lives.

From 6:30pm.

NikeTown London

UJ were lucky enough to take a tour around NikeTown London's revamped space with Olympic hurdler Perri Shakes-Drayton, including the new womenswear floor - and man were we impressed. Working out just seems so much more doable when you've got a good look to change into, so take your pick from the various pants shapes (we like the legging-cut joggers), a bra bar that'll make you seriously reconsider than underwear as outerwear trend, and Dri-FIT hoodies that come with cut outs to fit your ponytail through. Throw in expert advice, gait analysis, a Tuesday female-only running club come the New Year (with lockers to dump your work gear in while you're out) and big spacious changing rooms for an all round win-win; which is just what you'll be doing in your snazzy new sneakers, right? Check out our pictures here.

This week’s hottest foodie destination

Wahaca
Our favourite Mexican opens the fourth member of its family in Soho.

80 Wardour Street, W1F 0TF - 020 7734 0195
www.wahaca.co.uk

Location
At the bottom end of Wardour Street in the old Slug & Lettuce space, smack bang in the middle of medialand.

Vibe
Following the same irreverent path as its predecessors, the atmosphere is buzzy, busy and bright – service is swift, food comes as and when from the open kitchen, and with a no reservations policy people are constantly popping in and out with the tables packed from the get-go.

Flavours
The menu at Wahaca is based on the 'Mexican market' concept – fresh, honest food made with seasonal and locally sourced ingredients served to share. The guacamole and salsa dips to start are tangy and super clean on the tongue, whilst tasting-sized dishes range from the spicy kick in the steak taco (balance with a cooling hibiscus agua fresca) and the velvety, tomato-based marinade of the chipotle chicken quesadilla, to the smoked mackerel tostada and big fat barrel, cheesy burritos. Leave room for the melt-in-your-mouth cinnamon-sprinkled churros, and definitely try with the caramel, rather than chocolate sauce. Or do both.

Décor
Bright, airy and fun, we loved the Chiquita banana chandelier, neon pink park-bench seating and the bright Remi Rough designed wall graffiti. Head downstairs past the colourful beaded curtains to the tequila bar, where hanging cocoon chairs swivel by foosball tables and bold red tables and bar stools make the perfect hangout to swing back the stellar Bloody Marias (a Bloody Mary made with tequila).

Upshot
We feel like Soho needed a fun, sparky place to hit at lunchtime, and this may just be the perfect solution. Sure the no bookings policy might leave you stranded on occasion, but with this kind of spread we wouldn't mind waiting one bit – and there's always the lure of the tequila bar. It makes you happy, don't you know.
