Glossy box review

I have used beauty boxes before, but have been sadly disappointed with my sample sizes the last few times I ordered them, a few packets that I could’ve picked up for free in store were sent to me...

Making Things Club

On Sunday, I sauntered down to the Making Things Club, a monthly craft event held at Cafe Kino in Bristol. Cafe Kino itself is a beautiful, laid back little cafe that serves the most delicious...

Instagram

I’ve just realised I have yet to talk about my holiday or post any of the pictures, I went boating in North Wales. It was actually the coolest holiday I’ve been on! Anyway, I thought I’d save that...

Weekly Photo Challenge: Mine

I always feel a little possessive of quiet moments in the hidden spots of this city.

My blog is terrible!

So, I had flu. That’s brought my story off to a pretty boring start, but it’s really important to the story! I couldn’t attend Bristol fashion week, I missed a seminar today because I lost my voice...

Pre-Bristol Fashion Week…

So, as you may have been able to tell from the little speech-bubble on the side of my blog I am lucky enough to be a Bristol Fashion Week blogger this year. Wahoo, was my immediate thought, but now...

Weekly Photo Challenge: Everyday Life

For me, this wasn’t a hard choice of all the photos I’ve chosen, just this simple photo from above of the Fishermen in Portugal, their job is their livelihood and many of them learnt from their...

Messy Mince and Tatties Recipe

I’m half Scottish, and so my most favourite comfort food that reminds me of my childhood is my Dad’s Mince & Tatties, otherwise known as mince and potatoes, haha. Obviously Mince and mash isn’t a...

Bristol Zoo

I love Bristol Zoo, me and Andre make a habit of visiting every valentines day (not just because they do a deal), and every time we see some reason to keep coming back. The animals are all so...

The New Era of Magazines

I’ve always wanted to write my own magazine, so when I found out that there were magazines out there that actually had all the things I’d want to put in my magazine, I practically jumped for joy!...

Life update…

I have been meaning to post something, just a little filler with some pictures of my life, but I have had such a weird illness, I was dizzy and foggy headed and couldn’t even read a book let alone...

Bristol Balloon Fiesta…minus the balloons

This weekend I went somewhere I have always wanted to go, the Bristol Balloon Fiesta! Situated by the Ashton Court Manor (a place I need to go sometime) close to a fallow deer park, and all in all...

Inspiration of the week

This week I’ve been on a sort of ‘staycation’ in a wonderful house in London, it’s a great feeling living somewhere that is in such a cool area (Evelyn Waugh’s house is close by) and it leaves me...

A little winter isn’t bad…

As you know, London is hosting the Olympic’s this year, and whilst I’m all up for TEAM GB and all that, I can’t help thinking that the weather is somewhat against the idea. Today, we trudged...

Bicester village, chic outlet shopping…

Bicester Village is situated in the heart of Oxfordshire and is described as ‘chic outlet shopping’, it’s filled with boutiques and designer stores and everywhere has massive signs saying “SALE!”...

A foreign love affair

My boyfriend is Portuguese, and as such I have visited Portugal and lived the life of the Portuguese a few times, I prefer this new Portugal I’ve been introduced to, the old cocktail bars and fish...

Etsy finds…

I have to say, since I’ve been reading Regretsy, my view on Etsy has become somewhat cynical, and I quite prefer Folksy for all things handmade and unique, however I’ve been browsing for myself and...

Home!

I’m sorry I haven’t blogged more regularly, I’ve been at home which is a bit of a hectic process in itself!!! I really am trying to be more of a regular blogger but you know, duty calls and all...

Iphoneography….

Yes, yes I am one of those delightful people who own an Iphone. Truth be told I’ve been lucky enough to own one ever since they first came out and I’m so used to the interface now I can’t imagine...

Inspiration this week…

This week there’s been a lot that has inspired me, from pretty colours to inspiring crafty tutorials, and since it’s soon summer I’m hoping to have some time on my hands (since nobody will employ...

What’s going on in my life?

Tomorrow is Bristol’s Vintage Fair, and I am definitely attending and taking all my cameras with me! I hope to pick up some of the magic of the fair, however I’m afraid I might not make any outfit...

Portugal!

So, I’m back from a wonderful five days in Portugal staying at my boyfriends other house, I do love it there! We went there for his 21st birthday which was a Medieval themed party in the grounds of...

Easter inspiration!

A fashionable figure…

So, I’ve been blogging about fashion for a while now, deleting and compiling a list of blogs and tumblr’s that have proven unpopular, or just too slapped together. But here I am nestled snugly in...

The things I do for blogging…

So today I handed in my very substandard essay and in honour of that took a trip to Cabot circus where I was extremely cheeky and spent £56 quid out of the whole £80 quid in my account, now I have...

An Urban Outfitters Day,

Today it is adequately hot, not as hot as yesterday I might add but hot enough! I got an Urban Outfitter’s Spring 2012 magazine through the door and it made me fall in love with them all over...

First day of spring!!!!

Happy first day of spring everybody! It’s official, and it was a gorgeous day here in Bristol, a whopping 14 degrees! Lovely! In honour of the weather we took to the park to explore the river and...

Swimming, Roast Dinner and a new park!

Today I went swimming! It was awesome, still a bit of a nip in the air – though I expect that to change for the first day of spring (fingers crossed) we went to Kingswood Leisure Centre which is a...
