Honouring the Harvest – A Time of Gathering, Grounding, and Giving Thanks

This week’s spotlight is on Notting Hill shopkeeper Katrina Phillips, whose FARLY edit beautifully embodies the themes of Harvest—gathering, grounding, and giving thanks. As October draws near, bringing the Harvest season with it, we embrace a time of reflection, gratitude, and preparation for the winter months ahead.

Her curated collection helps us transition into the darker days of winter, carrying the light and abundance of the season with us, while honouring its cycles.

Katrina, a storyteller and curator of meaningful objects, grew up on the Scottish beaches of Argyle. Her deep connection to nature and storytelling has shaped her journey. She fondly recalls sitting around campfires, listening to stories passed down through generations—one of the most ancient forms of human connection. For Katrina, storytelling is not just a pastime; it is integral to her shop on Portobello Road, where every object holds a narrative.
