Seinabo Sey is a Swedish pop soul singer who came to my attention last year with her track Younger. Younger was produced by Magnus Lidehäll who created Mapei’s Don’t Wait which I featured a few weeks ago; so no surprise it caught my attention. Last month she realised this new track which has a different feel to it. There’s a definite hint of Mary J … Continue reading Hard Time
Two classics, blue jeans and a white shirt, essential pieces in anyone’s wardrobe male or female. I think these must be the most versatile items of clothing wear to any occasion, never more so than now with all the tailored denim that’s around. This shirt is another freebie from my mum, sorry about the creases mum! I’ve been looking for a good quality white shirt … Continue reading I Did it My Way
This is my new favourite work dress, yes it’s a dress not skirt and shirt. I spied it on the bargain rail in H&M because it was missing a button on the top. A little thing like that is no problem for me and I just added a little stitch to save my modesty. It’s a perfect Friday dress, minus the tights your ready for … Continue reading Hard Days Night
I’ve been meaning to feature Eliza and the Bear on New Music Monday for a while now, somehow they have been overlooked. At the weekend I heard their track Friends belting out of my TV as the soundtrack to a Sky Movies advert, so I thought it was about time. This is in fact the song which introduced me to the band withe that great hook … Continue reading Brother’s Boat
I got a lot of things from my mother and dress sense is most definitely one if them. And although she’s now a Gran she’s still knows how to rock a good outfit, though her taste in shoes is going downhill (a strong sway towards the comfortable these days!) This shirt is a perfect example, I got it from her when was visiting during the … Continue reading I Got it from my Mamma
Last weekend I had plans to get some pretty summer photos in my fab new lime green maxi, Glasgow had other ideas though. With the rain pouring down I had to settle for some in the office, boring I know. This is my Primark outfit I picked up a few weeks ago. I coulda kept it simple with such a bright skirt but stripes are … Continue reading Rainy Day Women
You know I’m a total sucker for a band from my hometown, well these guys aren’t quite from Glasgow but Kilmarnock is pretty close. I heard a track from them last week and I’ve been listening to their abum. I Am and Island, all weekend. Your quintessential rock/indie four peice with two guiatrists, a bassest and a drummer. They create wonderful anthemnic tunes which are just begging to be … Continue reading I Like Not Knowing
I’ve not posted one of these for a few months now but given my recent challenge to get bikini ready I could hardly ignore this months Vogue. The beautiful Kate Upton, now there’s a body to die for, in an even more beautiful D&G bikini. The price tag though is a little scary, £525 for the top and £625 for the bottoms. This 50’s style … Continue reading On the Cover of a Magazine
Summer is fast approaching and I am nowhere near beach ready. For weeks I’ve been trying to get the motivation together to eat healthily and exercise but it’s just not happening. I came across a squat challenge on Pinterest and was thinking of giving it a go during June. Then yesterday a friend of mine signed up to an ab challenge on facebook. From there … Continue reading My Body’s too Bootylicious for you Baby
I had a funky track all lined up for today’s new music Monday, but I spent the weekend watching sport and last night drinking cocktails and didn’t write it up, doh! So here’s a little bit of Paolo instead. I absolutely love him and have done since I first heard, Last Request. His new album is nothing short of brilliant. I’ve been listening to it … Continue reading Numpty
