Dua Lipa is opening a Radical Optimism pop-up shop in London this week
Pop superstar Dua Lipa is returning to London this week for two massive shows at Wembley Stadium. The British-Albanian singer is finally bringing the Radical Optimism tour to her home turf after taking it all around the world during the past year, including a triumphant Glastonbury headline set. Before Dua completes her London victory lap, she is doing something a little extra for the fans in the capital. The 'Houdini' singer has announced she is opening a pop-up shop in the Big Smoke in the lead up to the concerts. The Radical Optimism Pop-Up Shop will open in the city for four days this week, taking place in the run up to and during the Radical Optimism World Tour. The shop will be open from June 19 until June 22, open daily from 11am to 6pm. It will be located at Protein Studios in Shoreditch. The pop-up will be flogging Dua merch, while there will also be photo opportunities and a bar serving 'Dua's favourite drink' (although the drink hasn't been confirmed yet, our guess is on a dirty martini). There will also be an immersive experience taking fans 'inside the music of Radical Optimism '. That's presented in L-ISA Immersive Sound, the ultra-high resolution spatial audio technology from L-Acoustics. There will also be special perks for American Express card holders. See more about that here. Radical Optimism Pop-Up Shop, Protein Studios, 31 New Inn Yard, London, EC2A 3EY. Jun 19-22. Free. A new free lido will open in east London this summer.

Dua Lipa Reveals the Custom Details That Make Her Engagement Ring ‘So Me'
Six months after Dua Lipa first sparked engagement rumors with a shiny new ring, she finally addressed the speculation in British Vogue: 'Yeah, we're engaged. It's very exciting.' The singer confirmed on June 12 that actor Callum Turner proposed—and that the diamond ring she has quietly flaunted on Instagram since Christmas Eve is, in fact, the real deal. Lipa told the magazine that Turner tapped her sister, Rina, and a few close friends for intel before having the piece made. 'I'm obsessed with it. It's so me,' she said. 'It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well.' While the couple has not revealed any exact specs, independent jewelers have weighed in. Bridal experts at Brides estimate the ring features a 'round brilliant or old European cut' diamond set into a wide yellow-gold band, a design that 'most likely cost $65,000 to $85,000 on the low end and $125,000 on the high end." The silhouette lands squarely in this year's bigger-is-better trend of chunky engagement rings, featuring substantial metal, flush-set stones, and a profile designed for everyday wear. Lipa and Turner went public with their relationship last year, and became Instagram-official in July at Glastonbury, where Lipa headlined. The pair isn't rushing to walk down the aisle yet. At the moment, Lipa is focused on her Radical Optimism World Tour and Turner is filming his next projects. 'I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding,' she admitted to British Vogue. 'All of a sudden I'm like, 'Oh, what would I wear?'' Until their schedules align, the newly engaged stars are enjoying the moment—sparkling, custom gold ring included.
