    Fabulous Five #1 | QueenBeady

    I know when I start a “series” type of post they generally fall by the wayside after about a month, like my Mindfulness Monday posts that I started at the beginning of the year. I don’t know why I can’t keep them up, after all this blog has been going for 5 years or so now. I’m not quite sure when I’ll run out of things to say but for some reason I’m never too great at keeping up with these style of posts. With various blogs like this around already written by other bloggers, it might seem silly to add another one to the list, however, I realise it’s a nice little way to document some of the things that have made me smile and I want to capture the small things too. I hope by not putting a huge amount of pressure on myself to post this on a particular day of the week, might ignite more of a passion to write them. I want to look back on my blog and see it as a little diary for me to remember good times! So without further ado, I bring you Fabulous Five, numero uno.

    New Conservatory Leeds main taster

    I was recently invited to review the The New Consevatory, Leeds new menu. I’d seen plenty of other bloggers head here and I had never had the pleasure yet so I was excited to see what was in store. The Restaurant and Bar is situated on Albion Place which is very central within Leeds. A very beautiful building, you head down the stairs to the bustling bar. The décor reminds me of an old-world orangery of a very regal house. The walls are lined with book shelves, with many, many novels and hardbacks adorning them, making it a really unique venue. Spending the night with my BFF was also a massive bonus, ‘cos you know we all need to blow off some steam every once in a while, she probs ate her belly pork quietly whilst getting a little bit of TMI, but who cares? FYI, spoiler alert, the belly pork was to die for.

    I saw something on Facebook the other day that quite frankly, pissed me off. Okay, maybe that is a strong way of explaining my feelings. First it pissed me off, then it made me sad, then it made me question society. All these emotions came from a post that kinda went like this “Omg I’m a size 12 now. I’m so fat!” Whilst I really hope that the person can work on loving her body, it just made me so sad that we are conditioned to believe we should be perfect all the time. Guys, you know what I’m probably at my heaviest (albeit not that heavy at all) and yet I’m still feelin’ sassy with all my perfect imperfections.

    I don’t know about you, but I am 100 billion percent ready for some good weather & I think it requires jetting off somewhere European for a little city break, don’t you? It’s less than five weeks till we jet off to sunny (I hope) Nice for a weekend to check out one of University Room’s accommodations. I’m super excited to wander down little streets, people watch with an iced latte in hand and enjoying the sunshine on the promenade. Nothing beats getting a Summer holiday wardrobe ready and I’ve been looking for some inspiration when visiting this beautiful, sea front, French town.

    What IS Self-Care & Why is it important? | Guest Post by The Good Life

    Cliff Views East Side

    I very rarely accept guest posts on QueenBeady.com, just because I like to be the sole creator of what I put online, but I’ve found that the more blogs I read the more inspired I am and I want to share with my readers just some of the writers that really get my mind ticking & one of those is Cydney from The Good Life. Describing herself as a vegetarian, a multiple business owner, a social butterfly, an online entrepreneur. Not least mum to one lovely little boy of three years old, this girl is someone I aspire to and she’s only 23. So, without further ado, I’ll let Cydney take it away!
