Three high end restaurants to try in London

LONDON’S LUXURY DINING REVOLUTION: 3 MUST-VISIT SPOTS FOR 2026 Whether you’re a local foodie or planning a high-end weekend in the city, London’s luxury hotel dining scene is currently in its "Golden Era." 2026 has brought a fresh wave of glamour to some of the city's most historic postcodes. If you’re looking for a reservation that guarantees a "wow" factor, here are three destinations of the highest caliber to add to your list right now. Mauro Colagreco at Raffles London at The OWO Housed in the legendary Old War Office in Whitehall , this is perhaps the most significant opening in recent years. Chef Mauro Colagreco (of the three-Michelin-starred Mirazur ) has created a flagship dining room that is a masterclass in elegance. The Vibe: Stately, historic, and undeniably grand. The restaurant recently secured its first Michelin star for its hyper-seasonal, plant-forward British menus. Don't Miss: After dinner, head down to the Spy Bar , a subterranean speak...

Luxury summer travels in 2026

For those seeking the ultimate summer escape, the Mediterranean coastlines of France and Italy offer a masterclass in high-end living. From the legendary beach clubs of Saint-Tropez to the dramatic cliffs of the Amalfi Coast , these destinations combine sun-drenched natural beauty with world-class gastronomy and the most exclusive retail therapy. The French Riviera: Nice , Cannes , and Saint-Tropez The Côte d'Azur is the definitive playground for the global elite. June and September are widely considered the best months to visit Villanovo ; you’ll enjoy balmy temperatures of 18–25°C and warm sea water without the extreme congestion of the August "grandes vacances." Nice : Artistic Heritage and Modern Luxury Nice serves as the sophisticated gateway to the Riviera, blending Italianate architecture with French elegance. The Iconic Stay : No visit is complete without the Hotel Negresco . A National H...

Why women spend so much money? Where does it go?

Have you ever been surprised or even shocked how much money women can spend? There are many reasons why this happens and if you were not aware of how much we spend, you are in for a shock. I know that men like to analyse things , especially the finances , so let's dive in deep and find out! First of all, women have to endure tremendous pressures from the society to look good, be fashionable, look youthful and trendy at all times. This has always been the case but now it has been exacerbated by the social media and the pressures to keep up with the influencers and celebrities. And although not all women fall into this trap but this can be really noticeable. Suddenly all women want a Chanel bag whereas before they have been happy with a regular bag that is reasonable priced. Suddenly the young ladies are all fashion victims. But let's leave those for a moment and let's see how much the average woman can spend just on her daily upkeep. I know that some men find those numbers r...

The Lipstick Recession: How Fashion Is Dressing for a Potential Downturn

The Lipstick Recession: How Fashion Is Dressing for a Potential Downturn As the economy teeters on the edge of uncertainty, fashion is stepping up—not to make a statement, but to make a statement . Enter the "lipstick effect," that delightful phenomenon where, in the face of financial doom, we splurge on small luxuries to feel better. It's as if our wallets are on a diet, but our spirits are indulging in a shopping spree. 💄 Lipstick: The Little Red Flag of Recession The "lipstick effect" suggests that during tough times, people opt for affordable indulgences like premium lipsticks, nail polishes, or fancy coffees instead of splurging on expensive handbags or vacations. It's like saying, "I can't afford a holiday, but I can afford to look fabulous while staying home." In the UK, this trend has been evident, with consumers turning to small luxuries such as Estée Lauder lipsticks during economic downturns. 🧵 Recession Chic: Fashion's Subt...

It Ends With Us- Film review

It Ends With Us - new film with Blake Lively. I wasn't expecting much from this film but I was surprised that I actually liked it. It starts with a 'romantic comedy' vibe that brings to mind some of those classic romantic comedies that we all loved in 90s or early 2000s. For some reason those type of moves are not being made anymore so it was giving me a cosy feeling of familiarity. After a while the film develops into more drama but it has been subsided by the way it was filmed which was an interesting take to convey the message but without unnecessary violence and grafic scenes, it was a nice change after so many movies that have too much violence just for the sake of it. Blake Lively was great for the role however I am not sure why they have made her wear so many dungarees, it was a bizarre choice of outfits especially that the other actress who played the sister was wearing the most amazing flamboyant outfits that could have easily been worn by Carrie in Sex and th...

10 Michelin star restaurants in London to try

London boasts an exceptional culinary scene, with a remarkable concentration of Michelin-starred restaurants offering diverse and innovative dining experiences. As of 2025, the city continues to be a global gastronomic destination, featuring establishments that range from traditional fine dining to contemporary and experimental cuisines. Here's a curated list of ten standout Michelin-starred restaurants in London: 1. The Ritz Restaurant – Mayfair (2 Stars) Under the guidance of Executive Chef John Williams, The Ritz has earned its second Michelin star, solidifying its status as a pinnacle of classic French haute cuisine. The dining room exudes opulence, offering dishes like hay-aged Bresse duck and tableside-prepared crêpe suzette, all served with impeccable silver service. In 2025, it was also named the best restaurant in the UK by the National Restaurant Awards . blog.resy.com +1 opumo.com +1 bonvivant.co.uk +3 thetimes.co.uk +3 theguardian...

WHY DO WE SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON FASHION AND BEAUTY?

Why do women spend so much money? Everyone has that friend who is always broke and living from pay check to pay check even though she has an amazing salary... How is that even possible you could ask? It is very interesting when you actually observe how people and women in particular spend their money to always end up in the red. What are the reasons? 1. Keeping up with others Have you even caught yourself wanting the same thing as your friend and even buying it straight aways as soon as she got it? Was it a bag, perfumes, a dress, shoes? Yes, we have all been there. It is peferectly natural to want the same things as your friends if they look good on them. 2. Social media influence A friend who has something you want but on steroid- a social media influencer or even a celebrity, don't we all just want to look like those beauties? And of course we need to have everything they have if we can afford it. Unfortunately we forget some of those things they get as a part of the pro...

TOP CLUBBY LONDON RESTAURANTS FOR A NIGHT OUT

Do you sometimes want to go to a club without going to a club? You want a fun night out but without the clubbing bit. Those restaurants fill this need and here are my top favourite London restaurants that have that clubbing feeling. Tis would be handy if you are just travelling to London and need a night out as London club scene can be tricky, it is easier to get a reservation in a restaurant than getting into best clubs as you have to be a member. First of all we have to mention Novikov, the OG of London Asian fusion restaurants. On Saturdays it turns into a club and has a DJ and of course let's not forget the famous late night bar with DJ. The food is amazing and it is a fun night out if you are looking for that clubby feeling. Another restaurant with similar atmosphere is Bocconcino just across the road, unfortunately the food is not the best there so it is mainly the atmosphere that is fun and they have live music and dj as well. Amazonico is next on the list...
