Where: Somerset House

If you’re looking for a spot of cool ice rink fashion, look no further than Somerset House.
Everyone from Penny Lancaster and Trinny Woodall to Alexa Chung and Lily Cole – dressed in warm winter glamour – descended on Somerset House on Monday night to celebrate the start of the ice rink’s tenth anniversary season. Thandie Newton, who turned on the Tiffany tree, looked particularly fab in a feathered black hat with great red shoes and a cool red clutch.
Of course, less stylish were the moves on show at the newly iced rink. While designers Julien McDonald and Melissa Odabash took to the ice like professionals, I was left clinging to my friend Jonathan as I attempted to complete two laps. For a total beginner I think I was lucky my Daniela Besso coat didn’t have a rather icy encounter. Actually, I think I might be back later on in the season for a solo skate!
