Foxes is the gorgeous Louisa Rose Allen a singer songwriter from Southampton. I discovered her through my friend Roz who shazamed a background track in an episode of Gossip Girl. The track in question was this one and many months later is finally a single, released 27th October. It’s also featured in the new Debenham’s advert, I’ve said it before adverts are the place for … Continue reading Youth
I’m back from a gorgeous week in the sun, I really wish we’d booked longer than a week now. After a busy year we had a week of doing not very much at all in Marmaris, Turkey. We arrived about 5pm on the first day and enjoyed a Turkish bath that evening, this is highly recommend if you go to Turkey. You’re placed in the … Continue reading Seven Days
My toes weren’t left out of the holiday nail art. I went for a simple bright sunset design. I didn’t take photos of each stage unfortunately. I started with a colour blend with yellow, orange and pink as I did here. I then painted on the palm trees with a detail brush. Simples. Waterloo Sunset – The Kinks Continue reading Waterloo Sunset, I Am in Paradise
You know how your mum taught you never judge a book by its cover? Never has this more applied to a singer. I love the sound of George Ezra’s voice, so smooth and cool. I can’t believe this guy is only 19 and from Bristol. His name and sound suggests someone far older and exotic. He has such a natural and unique folky sound when … Continue reading Budapest
You know people say if you keep something long enough it comes back into fashion, well it’s true. Just like new boy bands pull out classics from the archives and make them a hit again. These jeans are my fashion throwbacks, I’ve had them since I was 16. I’m not really sure how I’ve managed to keep hold of them so long but I love … Continue reading One Way or Another
As your reading this I’m likely on a plane flying away for a week of sun and sand. A whole week of relaxing and sunbathing is just bliss. We’re up early, check in is 5am and have a 4 hour flight so comfort was my main thought when picking my outfit; cropped relax fit trousers and slouchy jumper. I always get cold on flights so … Continue reading Leaving on a Jet Plane
I’m off on my holidays on Friday so I had to get some bright colours on my nails. I decided on leopard print as I’ve not done it for ages. I think it can be a bit much on all your nails so went for this rising effect. It takes some time but it’s not hard. Simply paint your nails the main colour. Add little … Continue reading Wild Thing, I think I Love You

She already had massive success in her native New Zealand and a this track went to number 3 in the US too 100. I first heard Tennis Court earlier this year on Greg James Radio 1 … Continue reading Royals
On Thursday I went along with Roz and Bex to the relaunch if Brel. Brel is a Belgian bar, it’s namesake being Jacques Brel singer/songwriter. A bar named after a musician? Sounds like my kind place. The bar is nestled in Ashton Lane in Glasgow’s west end. It’s had the major refurb it needed and is now filled with personality and adorned with fairy lights. … Continue reading We had Joy, We had Fun
Here’s one, well cowgirl, hanging out in Princes Square, were else? There’s something about the tan leather, denim and pearl pop buttons that make me think of cowboys in this outfit. It should be a bad thing, but I really love it. Can’t believe it took me so long to get a denim shirt, I’ve been wearing this one with everything. These shorts were such … Continue reading Where have all the Cowboys Gone?
