Our first trip to the Vatican was a massive fail. Not only did we miss the Pope’s blessing, we do like a lie in. But Sunday is not the day to visit the centre of the Catholic Church, everything is closed. Not really surprising. Just as well really as my outfit was not Vatican appropriate either, no uncovered shoulders or shorts people. We had time … Continue reading Sunday’s Getting More Bleak
Don’t you just love a long holiday weekend? In Glasgow this is our September weekend, which for me means Friday and Monday off work. If I could work Tuesday to Thursday every week I’d be a happy girl. So what to do with an extra day off work? Day trip of course and first thought is always the beach. I packed Seb up in the … Continue reading She was a Day Tripper
On our first day in Rome we decided to jump right in to tourist central and check out the Pantheon and Colosseum. Our hotel was a short stroll, passed the unfortunately still under construction Trevi Fountain, to the Pantheon. The Pantheon is quite simply stunning. The columned entrance is only a start; the opened domed ceiling, ornate detailing and tiled floors are a must see. … Continue reading When In Rome
During our little Italian adventure we each had something we were looking forward to more than anything else, for me it was the Opera. For the man, in stereotypical man fashion, cars. Not just any cars though, Ferrari’s. Lucky for me I have a little penchant for a fast car too. Ferrari was born in Maranello which is only an hour from Bologna. We got … Continue reading Fast Car
I was in two minds whether to write up this post. We arrived in Bologna around 3pm and starving. After checking into the hotel food was a priority and of course I opted for the towns namesake Bolongese. A massive bowl of pasta, with Brushetta to start, is not the best choice pre photo shoot though. As a result I hated pretty much all the … Continue reading One Day in Bologna
Our little Italian Adventure began in Verona. City of Romeo and Juliet but more importantly for me the most amazing open air opera festival. We spent two nights and had one day to explore. Verona is a beautiful old city and its lovely to just wander around taking in the architecture and surroundings. A day or two is probably enough to see everything. Our Hotel … Continue reading Romeo Take Me

This was pretty much the perfect day. The kinda day you work your ass off all year for. After a long lie and big Scottish breakfast we headed to the beach. Oh and what a gorgeous beach it was, we may not have the warmth in Scotland but we do have the beauty. Lossiemouth beach is nestled on a beautiful green forrest so lucky Seb … Continue reading We Gotta Live For These Days
It’s Sunday and I’m in the midst of a horrific hangover and pile of work to do for tomorrow. That means today’s post will be short and sweet. There’s not a lot that needs to be said in any event. This outfit includes all my favourites for autumn/winter, perfect dress, OTK boots and tartan. Teamed that with my gorgeous boy and this gorgeous sky … Continue reading Through this Iron Sky
It may just be me but a walk along a crisp scottish beach can be just as lovely as warm sunny one. It reminds me of winter days out to the likes of Largs and Helensburgh. All bundled up for a walk and then chips on the promenade before home. Our little cabin is only a short journey from some lovely beaches on the Moray … Continue reading The Cold Never Bothered Me Anyway
