Open House
Last weekend I attended several Open House events. For those that haven’t been to Open House before, it’s a London-based event which allows you to visit many buildings that are normally off-limit. It’s a great opportunity to take a look around some of
First on our list was the ex-Daily Express Art Deco-style building located on Fleet Street. Unfortunately, only the lobby that was open to the public (as it is now in the hands of Goldman Sachs), however it was incredible to get a glimpse of the ornate silver and gilt plaster wall reliefs, the silver pendent lamp, oval staircase and snake hand rails.

The St Bride church in the background is also the inspiration for the modern day tiered wedding cake due to its architecture of the same shape.
1 Finsbury Circus was a beautiful example of teaming old and new design seamlessly. The building, once home to BP, is a Lutyens Grade II listed building and has been redeveloped with a contemporary interior and striking roof which allows masses of sunlight through.

Fashion and the Digital Revolution
Digital technology and fashion is a relationship that is going from strength-to-strength in recent seasons. There’s no doubting that the digital revolution is in full swing. As a social media advisor in my professional life and a fashion blogger inmy personal, it is a collaboration that I wholeheartedly support and actively follow.
The Show: Redefinition; has taken inspiration from the autumn/winter 2011 key trends, including gothic and 40s Hollywood. What makes this fashion show even more accessible is that you can buy all of the affordable looks from the shops within the Bullring. It is great to see a catwalk show that is available to the general public. Let the revolution continue!
