It has been reported that Jay-Z and Beyoncé are making a big move … to London!

That’s right, the world’s most famous couple will only be a short plane ride away according to sources saying they have purchased a £5.5million townhouse in London.

The couple has been said to be looking for a house in the Cotswolds or Mayfair but went for a (no doubt, amazing) detached townhouse in West London.

A deal for the home was apparently reached four weeks ago.

Perhaps they want a more permanent base when the rumoured Mr & Mrs. Carter tour comes to town.

Ever wondered what London looks like from King’s Reach Tower? Or what Chicago looks like from Legacy Tower? Well, thanks to a group of explorers who call themselves Place Hackers you can.

Place hacking is an actual thing and involves a group of adrenaline junkies that go to dizzying heights and scary edges across the world all in the name of fun. They explore old military bases, sewers, power stations and skyscrapers under construction.

Talking to Mother Jones, Bradley Garrett author of Explore Everything: Place Hacking the City the latest craze is “about going into places that are essentially off limits and, because they are off limits, have been relatively forgotten.”

The thrill seekers don’t vandalise or wreck the place, they simply explore and document so we can see the world like it’s never been seen before.

However, if you don’t have a head for heights we recommend you give these photos a miss…

Just yesterday, Victoria Beckham was welcomed to Condé Nast College in London to speak to students who wish to pursue a career in fashion and design.

During her visit, the businesswoman got the chance to try out a treadmill with a built-in-desk, allowing the user to kill two birds with one stone.

Of course, being the “Posh Spice” that she is, the fashion designer tried on the multipurpose tool with her trademark heels – how brave!

She then tweeted an image of herself on the machine and wrote:

“Every office should have one of these, work out and work at the same time!! Genius!!”

We would love to have a go on this machine – without our heels of course!

The only thing better than shopping, is a holiday – put the two together and you’re in heaven!

For a some destination inspiration, read on:

Milan
It’s expensive, yes, but with Milan being one of the fashion capitals of the world, it needs to be on this list.

Madrid
You may not have thought about this one, but Madrid actually offers budget-friendly shopping. The city is pretty cool as well.

Paris
If you want style then Paris is the city for you. Make sure you bring a credit card or two… chic is not cheap here.

London
It’s one of the more expensive UK cities, we know; however, Oxford Street is a high street shoppers dream of so you can’t go wrong.

Kuala Lumpur
It’s home to three of the ten largest malls in the world, so if your budget can stretch this far you will be in shopping heaven.

Tokyo
Japan is famous for its fashionable shops and high-end boutiques. It’s the fourth cheapest city in Asia, so what you spend on your plane ticket you’ll save on your shopping.
