On this month’s fabulous front cover Rolls Royce share with us the launch of their Wraith and Ghost Black Badge, an intoxicating new incarnation of the Rolls-Royce marque. Black Badge is a statement for those who dare to be different. It is for the fearless, the rule-breakers and the risk-takers, see the feature on pages10 & 11 of this issue.....

So it’s a brave new world we live in! Brexit it is! Whilst many may fear the uncharted waters that the vote delivers, Lord Digby Jones gives us all light and inspiration at the end of the tunnel, turn to pages 56 & 57.
What else do we have for you in this issue? How about an interview with the comedy genius that is Adam DeVine? Catch him in his latest movie alongside the gorgeous Zac Efron this month; he’s one of very few naturally funny people – his interview sets the scene!

There’s tons of travel inspiration in this issue too. Let’s face it, you’d turn blue holding your breath for the sunny weather in the UK, so grab your passport and get packing. There’s also coverage of our incredible Ladies’ Day at the Polo in the fifth year that we’ve teamed up with Dallas Burston Polo Club for this special event. The hats and outfits just get better…and some might say bigger (the hats that is)…each year. See our coverage in the People & Places section and on pages 146 & 147.
We hope you enjoy reading this issue as much as we did putting it together! Much love Katie & Team xxx

LI VE 2 4 - SEVEN – THE MIDL ANDS PREMIER LUXURY LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE
As we try desperately to rinse a bit of sun out of that moody looking sky, our attention is still on all things summer related and whilst the football was nearly as disappointing as our supposed Indian summer, at least the tennis made up for it…well done Andy! I had the pleasure once again of being invited into the Members’ Enclosure at Wimbledon, a day I look forward to every year. The Champagne, strawberries, etiquette and proximity to the Royal Box is intoxicating; apart from our annual polo day, this has to be my favourite day of the summer. The action on the court is always as interesting as the tennis, celeb spotting equal to game, set and match! Last month I was also lucky enough to get my hands on a Convertible Evoque – read my review on page 142.
