1. Ria’s Notting Hill

Ria's Notting Hill, Coffee Shop and Wine Bar

Good news for the coffee and wine drinkers of London, Notting Hill is home to a new coffee shop by day which transforms into a natural wine bar by night, so it’d be hard to not get the perfect date booked in. If that wasn't enough to entice you, they'll also be cooking up some Detroit-style pizzas for those who love a good deep dish.

2. Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto

Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto, V&A Museum

With Fashion Week SS24 splashing the media at the moment, you might be thinking that’s all the fashion news for this month. But if you’re a fan of Coco Chanel, then there’s one event not to be missed... Following a successful run at the Palais Galliera in Paris, Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto has officially opened at the iconic V&A. Excitingly, it’s the first UK exhibition dedicated to the pioneering work of the fashion designer, taking you back to the beginning of the CHANEL fashion house and the evolution of the couturière's sense of design and style -  a wide-reaching influence that still impacts the way women dress today. 

FYI: Tickets are already sold out until January 2024 so make sure to book yours now!
