When was the last time you played tourist in your own home town? Over the past couple of months I have had the great opportunity to truly explore my surroundings in London. I've visited neighbourhoods, treasured shopping streets and cherished British events, all in an effort to experience and share the creme de la creme of London life. Today, I bring you a lunchtime look at, perhaps one of my favorite London locations, The Royal Exchange.
I feel it's only appropriate to start with a little background here, as the Royal Exchange could fill an encyclopedia with its role in British history. The Royal Exchange begins its life in 1566, is officially opened by the Queen of England in 1571 and even sees a proclamation of a King on its hallowed steps in 1901. And that's just the Royal...

Style Update: She sells seashells
Ever have the moment when you spot a print and you know, no matter the cost, that the print in question needs to be a part of your life? You're looking at a prime example and a serious investment in a print that will reappear every summer, year after year, as one of my favorite pieces in my closet.
This is the Marina Rinaldi Seashell print for Spring Summer 2016 and, well, it's the stuff dreams are made of. There are matching trousers that set the world right, but for today I thought i'd kick off with featuring the piece de resistance - the silk shirt dress or jacket, depending on how you'd like to wear it. Take my breath away fabulous, right? Now, off to the seaside.

Zara Patch Bag
Zara Bag
ASOS Dress
Zara, girl we don't tend to get along all that well. I find your stuff over priced and sometimes too poor quality to justify the price tag but every now and again you show me how much of a babe you are and come up with something so undeniably perfect I could jump for joy.
This lil' Zara beaut of a crossbody bag has been gracing my shoulder for the better part of the last three months after I destroyed my eerily similar bag from Marks and Spark's while in New York due to my obsession with over stuffing things. I genuinely thought for a moment I was never going to find a bag like it again and then this one came along.
A little on the small side, but perfectly formed for days when I don't feel the need to tote around half my belonging with me. The little patches add a...

The Absolutely Fabulous Diet Coke Red Carpet Experience
So here's the score. A couple of weeks ago I got an email from the ladies over at Diet Coke. They asked if I'd be interested in attending the Absolutely Fabulous World Premiere in London and if I'd like to make it extra fabulous by being dressed, head to toe, in pieces from Liberty London - the famous London Department Store. What do you think I said? You're right, I passed on the opportunity. AS IF! I was straight in there and it went a little something like this.
First, I stopped by the Absolutely Fabulous Diet Coke windows outside Liberty, to pay homage to the ladies and brand, and found myself getting more excited than I would have thought possible. Ab Fab, me, Diet Coke in hand and a red carpet (rumoured to actually be gold) await. Pinch me, no really. These women were half...
