I promised myself that even though 2020 restricted us from meeting new people easily I wouldn't stop reaching out to interesting female entrepreneurs who inspired me and had a special story to share. I have always been very careful about the skincare I use. I try to keep my routine as simple as possible and [...]
Chapter Coffee was one of the last places I really wanted to visit prior to lockdown, but things closed down so quickly I missed the opportunity. Being stuck at home during the lockdown and trying to motivate myself was difficult. However, brands have become increasingly creative during this time and coffee is one thing I [...]
Perfume is a weakness of mine and I was delighted to have discovered this niche perfume brand during lockdown!
I have spent a lot of time with Victoria in recent months. I used to work with Jo Malone and Ormonde Jayne where I became quite obsessed with quality perfume and candles. In recent years, a lot of friends started gifting me candles. I guess it is one of the most neutral gifts. Those gifts started sparking [...]
Kelly Landesberg's A.O.K Kitchen has a wonderful ethos and concept behind it which will make it a huge success for people looking to relax in Marylebone without any judgment behind what they choose to have and how much of it! When I met Kelly recently she told me about the concept behind A.O.K and what [...]

Bellamy’s is an understated 65- seat brasserie nestled away in Bruton place, Mayfair. The Queen celebrated her 90th birthday here. The restaurant is also home to an extensive French wine [...]
Breakfast at CUT at 45 Park Lane has always been a favourite, especially their French toasts. I was ecstatic when I heard that 45 Park Lane is launching an American version of Afternoon Tea. Personally sandwiches do not excite me, it is usually the desserts that I look out for during afternoon tea. 45 Park [...]
Russell Square holds a special and nostalgic place in my heart. I spent 3 years at Holborn and Fitzrovia whilst I studied at LSE and Brunswick was a key part of the evenings we spent hanging out with friends who lived near there. It is great to see that hotels have considered Holborn and Russell [...]
Pavilion Road holds a special place in my heart. I used to work with a perfume brand many years ago here and back then the street was dead - literally dead. It is good to see a massive transformation of independent food retailers and a wonderful new coffee place called The Roasting Party. The Roasting [...]
