Mandeville hotel; located in the hearth of London just off Oxford street. And near to Marylebone highstreet. A charming boutique hotel and for ones not run bij a big chain. The rooms are petite but well maintained, the lobby is a treat, i just adore the e-type on th eglass side table.

Nicolicious on Hong Kong: we love this vibrant city, night and day sizzling and so versatile. It is a real shoppers paradise. We give you the top 5 where to go in Hong Kong. No1: Causeway Bay – a cute area on HK island with lots of small boutiques and restaurants no mainstream chains here. Lots of concept stores. No 2: Soho- very hilly but tinie tiny shops,inspiring. No 3: Ocean terminal mall- On Kowloon, every brand has it store here from Tom Ford to Zara so very accesible for every budget. No 4: Landmark mall, high end shopping, very chique and elegant mall, located on HK island. No5 : Canton road, the epic centre of luxurious shopping, with a jewel in the crown the Louis Vuitton Flagship store. Inside information: The biggest turnover worldwide is made in this shop; do not go here for buying a LV bag but merely for watching the people buy the merchandise, that is off course if you have enough patience to pass the long line outside { mind you there is a back entrance, smaller queue!}.

nicolicious on moldings: Moldings can give a room very quickly a very chique atmosphere, always use them in the same tone as the background. So white background white moldings. Also the pillows in checks and stripes are very delicate and add character and charm.

Elitis, wallpaper at its best. This kitchen is wallpapered with an elegant grey ponyskin wallpaper, to get the best effect do wallpaper all around a room and not only on one wall.

Jo Malone, a very British brand, fragrances ,bath and body products. Only available in England and selected corners in Europe. The fragrances and colognes are very refreshing and made of pure ingredients. Nicolicious recomend Wild fig & Cassis, The best thing is the way they gift wrap, even the tissue paper is sprayed with your favourite fragrance.
