An escort's guide to Chelsea
For a long time the London borough of Chelsea had a reputation as the artistic and bohemian centre of London. Nowadays, its most upmarket properties, including many of its gorgeous Queen Anne townhouses, have been colonized by investment bankers, pop singers, movie stars and high class escort girls. A little of Chelsea's bohemian ambience still seems to have survived in Cheyne Row and Cheyne Walk, streets which were once home to creative geniuses like Turner, Whistler, Rossetti and Sargent. The artistic atmosphere of 19th century Chelsea was briefly revived by the 'swinging London' movements of the 1960s, and King's Road has at one time or another been home to Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Elvis Costello and the Beatles, as well as any number of stunningly good looking London escort girls.
These days, the King's Road area, especially Sloane Square and Ellis Street - is the site of some of the UK's best high-fashion designer clothing and footwear shops, and the perfect spot to stop for lunch in Chelsea is the Bluebird Cafe, which forms part of a large complex of gourmet food shops, restaurants and gastropubs.
If your cute escort girlfriend is of intellectual inclinations - there's the Chelsea Physic Garden on Chelsea Embankment, founded over three centuries ago to explore the medicinal properties of plant life. The Physic Garden is open twice a week in the summer, and throughout the whole week of the Chelsea Flower Show, which is held in May by the Royal Horticultural Society. The Chelsea Flower Show is probably the most famous festival of its kind in the world, and is visited every year by around 150,000 people. Its horticulture is answer to catwalk fashion shows, and some of the blooms exhibited will, like London escorts, be breathtakingly beautiful even to non-enthusiasts.
