Covent Garden.
At the Royal Opera House, they have a big plexiclass container with the discarded ballet shoes from performances. It is also a fund raiser. The dancers can go through more than one pair in a performance. We had pre-bought tickets for a behind the scenes tour. There was only four of us in the group, and they let us watch the dancers practicing in their studio. It was great! I think "ballet shoes pink" has to be my favorite colour.
Lyndon's Stitch and Beads on Portobello Road in Nottinghill.
Unfortunately I think it also has closed.
It was really quaint and had that 60's feel.
Saved the best for last....
