LONDON ESSENTIALS FOR SPRING

London is absolutely a fantastic place to be in spring but you have to be well prepared to make sure you are ready to face any kind of weather as the transition between winter and spring can be quite surprising. Here are some things you might need. 1. Umbrella. I guess that goes without saying that we need an umbrella here now matter which season. 2. Sunglasses. Sun and rain mixed together and even a bit of snow recently, all in one day, that's perfectly normal for a Londoner. Large tortoise shell sunglasses are perfect or black ones for a stronger look. 3. Trench coat. A great wardrobe essential for spring, perfect in London. The famous London brand that offers a great selection is Burberry , however if your budget is a bit less flamboyant there are many alternatives in H&M, Zara and Mango. 4. Light scarf. Temperatures can rise and drop by many degrees so a scarf is a great way to keep warm. Again an iconic Burberry scarf would be nice but there are many more alternatives to ...

HOW TO START YOUR LUXURY BAG COLLECTION

If I had to start my luxury bags collection again and avoid any potential expensive mistakes, this is the guidelines I would follow. 1. Start with one classic bag that will match everything or at least most things in a neutral colour. I would recommend to start with two bags - one in black and one in nude/ beige colour. Or if just one, start with a black one. You might be tempted with all the trendy pieces in all seasonal colours but it would be a bit tricky when the trends pass and the colour becomes less fashionable or , even worse, you will discover that the colour you chose is very difficult to style with anything else you have in your wardrobe. For this reason. investing in black and beige bags you will insure that this will not happen and you will be investing your money wisely in the bag that you can wear for many seasons to come. and that you can wear the bag often achieving cost per wear. 2. The shapes or brands are also quite important while starting yo...

Chicama - Chelsea restaurant review

Chicama is a hidden gem in Chelsea. Why have I not discovered it sooner is a mystery! Chicama is a Peruvian restaurant just off King's Road, close to Bluebird and Beaufort House. It is tucked away in a corner and is quite small but has an outside space for summer dining. Where do I start, this tiny restaurant is an absolute gem in Chelsea, it serves seafood and Peruvian inspired style. I have already been there twice and really keen to go again. It is perfect for a romantic date or catching up with friends and family. It is very nicely decorated , I want to say it is very cute, but can you actually say that about a restaurant ? Any ladies visiting will know what I mean. Think pink plush chairs by the bar and cute plants on the terrace. The food is absolutely delicious, I have tried a few things but I love seafood so much that I love everything on the menu. My favourite at the moment is octopus as a main course and service as a starter. And of course you have to try pisco sou...

The "Divorce Month" Phenomenon: Why Relationships Face Their Final Test in January

The "Divorce Month" Phenomenon: Why Relationships Face Their Final Test in January As 2026 begins, many legal professionals are preparing for their busiest season of the year. While January is often associated with New Year's resolutions for health and career, it is also colloquially known as "Divorce Month" due to a sharp rise in couples seeking legal advice. Experts identify several core reasons why this month consistently marks a turning point for struggling marriages. 1. The "Last Christmas" Strategy For many couples with children, the decision to separate is made months in advance. However, parents frequently choose to postpone filing for divorce until after the festive period to ensure children have one final "normal" holiday. By waiting until January, they avoid disrupting family traditions and causing emotional distress during a time traditionally reserved for celebration. 2. The Pressure Cooker Effect The intense period of family tim...

Studio Frantzen restaurant review

Studio Frantzen is an amazing restaurant located in Harrods departament store in the top floor. It is quite new and I was very excited to visit it and I was not disappointed. I went there for dinner and the ambiance and decor is very minimal and chic.Lots of wood, dimmed lights, booths. Very modern. As you walk in , it is open plan and you can also see the kitchen which is also nice and interesting to see what is happening there. The menu is great and there is something delicious for everyone. I started off with a yummy cocktail, pink of course, then I had a sashimi selection starter and then baby monkfish main course, all of which was absolutely divine. I can't wait to visit again and sample other things from the menu. I also had a dessert which as delicious, foie gras ice cream. The service is fantastic and the staff is very helpful in choosing the right thing on the menu for your taste, they give great recommendations. I am looking forward to visiting a...
