SUZETTE BATTERSEA SQUARE REVIEW

Located in Battersea Square, this little place is perfect for breakfast or lunch. They are serving French style crepes, galettes, pastries, coffee etc. Also delicious omelettes. It's a tiny place with space inside as well as some outside tables and a take away/ delivery option. The service is super friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. This is a local, down to earth place. Also great place for spotting cute local dogs! Highly recommended, I will definitely be back often. Suzette Battersea Square review brunch places in London brunch in Battersea

OLD FASHIONED GENTLEMAN - A DYING BREED OR STILL WHAT WOMEN WANT?

Are gentlemen a dying breed or are they still going strong as it seems this is still what women want? Let's look at some qualities of a gentleman : 1. He is reliable. Always keeps his word and you can rely on him , he will never let you down. 2. He is always on time, by that I mean actually 10 minutes early, he would never let a lady wait for him especially not in a public place like a restaurant or a bar, that's unacceptable. 3. He always dresses well and is well groomed even for casual occasions. Simple a stylish outfits, effortlessly chic. 4. He always organises a restaurant or an activity and makes sure the lady gets home safely afterwards by booking a taxi especially if it is late at night. 5. He always controls his emotions especially in public. 6. He is always polite to everyone and even charming. He respects everyone and has good manners. 7. He would never allow a lady to pay for anything especially that he is aware how much effort and investment she puts it to look g

DO I NEED TO DRESS UP TO GO TO THE THEATRE IN LONDON?

How to dress to the theatre or a concert in London? That is the question! It is funny as you can often see people who are in the theatre in London or at a concert at Royal Albert Hall for the first time, they simply stand out as they dress up too much. Don't get me wrong, I love dressing up and I definitely encourage it but the general trend is to be wearing something smart casual or even very casual. I sometimes wonder if the real fashion is only worn by the fashion bloggers and influencers as you can hardly ever see anyone dressed up in 'real life' and I tend to be the odd one out. Well, it is a great way to stand out if you would like that. So the short answer is - no, you don't have to dress up , it is enough if you just wear a smart casual outfit and you will blend in perfectly. For a man - jeans with smart shoes such as loafers or brogues and a button down shirt and a blazer, for women anything goes really as long as it is looking elegant and smart. Needless

SHPOCK - APP REVIEW - IS IT WORTH SELLING THERE?

I was very excited about the Shpock app as it allows to sell your old clothes , accessories and anything else like furniture or perfumes. The app has a very secure way of selling the items, you can either selling it directly via the app and post it or you can sell it locally and meet for the sale in person. Both ways have the advantages. The system in the app protects both the seller and the buyer so it is great to sell small clothing items that you can easily post. So far I have sold items like a sofa, shoes, a watch, dresses, clothes, a decorative ornament, handbags etc. The only thing you should be aware is that the important thing is to price your items correctly, you can't expect to retrieve the same amount that you paid for a used item. I think this is where many people have a rude awakening as used items , especially fashion loose a lot of value, even designer items. Otherwise the buyer can just buy a full price item brand new from the store so it has to be a significant d

SOHO HOUSE MEMBERS CLUB REVIEW

London Soho House is a members club that has many varied venues across London , here are some that I have been to and what I think about them, are they worth it? Soho House is meant to be a place for people who work in media and other creative professions. White City House - a massive venue in White City with restaurants and bars and a swimming pool on the rooftop. There is all you need to be entertained, concerts, shows, cabaret, restaurants ( I lived the Japanese restaurant there) and of course the famous swimming pool. Whereas the venues itself is luges , the pool area gets very crowded even on a Monday so it is a bit tricky to really enjoy it. I wish the pool was bigger. Otherwise I love the venue and the service is always super nice and helpful. Little House in Mayfair. As the name suggests it is very small and suitable for drinks after work if you happened to be in Mayfair area. They also serve food and have live piano on occasions. A small bar and restaurant area. It is a cut

BARBIE MOVIE -WHAT IS IT REALLY ABOUT? FILM REVIEW

Who doesn't love Barbie, the blonde blue eyed doll who wears pink? We all do. I went to see the move for sentimental reasons but the movie was not as I expected. I was hoping for some variation of a love story between Barbie and Ken but I was a bit disappointed I must admit. On the other hand I was quite intrigued by the plot and what it means. Let's point out the obvious first, we all love Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, we could not ask for a better couple, shame there was no romance or even a kiss or anything of that nature that we all love in movies! A very aesthetically pleasing movie though. Without too many spoilers , the move opens a conversation about men and women in the modern society. The society has changed a lot in the recent decades and is now completely different with the roles of men and women being slightly reversed to put it mildly. Barbie explores what it is like to live in the real world and experiencing the struggles of real women. Whe

HARRODS TIFFANY'S BLUE BOX CAFE

If you are anything like me and you love the classic film Breakfast at Tiffany's with Audrey Hepburn, you are going to absolutely love this Harrods Tiffany's Blue Box cafe and restaurant. It is located in the lower ground floor of our favourite department store and of course it is beautifully decorated with Tiffany's signature colours. Visiting it is a fantastic experience for the fans of the film and the brand in general, which I am both. I love all things Tiffany's and I saw so happy to have experienced an afternoon tea there. Now we are waiting again for it to re-open so we can enjoy it again soon. The service is excellent and of course the wonderful food and cakes and many types of tea. It is also serving other meals as well. Highly recommended , make sure you book well in advance to avoid disappointment.
