Live from London! My to do list

I'm in London for work. I LOVE London, my favorite city ever, so happy to be here again! This time I will have Saturday all for me to hang around, shopping, see new things. Here's my ambitious to do list for my free day!

My classic program for a Saturday in London is:
-
Breakfast at Starbucks - ok, this will sound rather boring to some of you, but we don't have Starbucks in Italy, so it's exotic for me! :)
-
Portobello Road market. In the first zone of the street there's antiques, I don't like it so much anymore. Then there's the great food and flowers zone. Finally there's the vintage-crafts-design zone, which is the main reason why I like to go there. It's still one of my favorite markets.
-
Nevertheless, this time I'll change my program (I've done the same too many times!) and I'm going to the Design Museum, never been there and I'm sure it will be fun!
-
In the afternoon I often stop at the discounted tickets booth in Leicester Square and sometimes I take a "random" ticket, whatever is available and promising. This time, for "nostalgia" reasons, I'd like to se Dirty Dancing the musical...
-
Then I typically go to Covent Garden, another of my favorite places for the cafes and the specialist shops and for the Apple Market. But I might skip that to go and discover two shops recommended by my friend Vitto, instead:
-
The Pottery Cafe where u can decorate your own mug...
-
Finally I have some other things to do: the GAP close to my hotel - again this will sound not very original but we don't have GAP either in Italy so when I can I stock up (specially underwear, nightwear and Tshirts, but I'm looking for a new coat too...)
-
Kate Moss is launching her new Top Shop line. I don't like her style so much, but my black leather studded bag from her first Top Shop collection is one of my favorites... So I'm curious.
-
I've seen advertisements of the "vibrating mascara": I want it!
And what would you do on a Saturday in London? I'd love to get special suggestions!
