    Views for days, rolling hills and babbling brooks. It’s easy to picture, right? Luckily for us this is all on our doorstep at Mr C’s parent’s farm just up the road from our own humble abode. Most weekend’s tend to be spent playing with kittens, running around after chickens and walking our dog alongside the beck that runs through the farm estate. Could there be any dreamier day? So what really constitutes a perfect Sunday? After all, a weekend well spent, brings a week of content…

    I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t manage to bosh all of Girl Boss on Netflix in less than 2 days. It’s an addictive series. The tale of Sophia Amuruso, the creator of Nasty Gal is one of those rags to riches stories where there’s some amazing high and some ridiculous lows. Maybe it’s kinda cos I have a bit of a girl crush on Britt Robertson – hello epic style and bangs that blow my mind? It’s a show that you feel pretty invested in if you make it past the first couple of episodes. Oh & yeah I did cry during the season finale. I blame the hormones. Whatever reason you watched it, there are some pretty valuable lessons to be learnt from it.

    CELEBRATING 20 YEARS WITH WHITE ROSE, LEEDS #WR20YEARS | QUEENBEADY

    Who doesn’t love a good ol’ shopping spree? Not me, that’s for certain! With any opportunity to give my plastic some serious thrashing, I am always ready & raring to go. Ya feel me? And when White Rose, Leeds asked me to style three mannequins for their 20th Birthday Celebrations, I could not have been more involved if I had tried. To celebrate them opening in ’97 (I will have been 7. Yes, 7 years old) we were given £97 per mannequin to create three unique looks. The sheer prospect of it was enough to make me giddy.

    GETTING SOME #GRAINSPIRATION* | QUEENBEADY

    Hands up if you love nothing more than a bacon sandwich for breakfast? I know I’m guilty of it. I’m always looking for healthier ways to start the day (ahem, belgian hot chocolates do not count just because they are “liquid”) So when Good Grain wanted to challenge me to a 5 ways, 5 days challenge of creating different breakfasts with their puffed rice & wheat cereals I was more than up for the #Grainspiration challenge. Using some of their own ideas and incorporating some of mine, my week long challenge was about to begin…

    Okay. I’m gonna say it right now. I feel bad-ass when I wear this outfit. It’s the perfect mixture of feminine meets Boss Woman ready to come at ya. I really love the femininity of the lace detailing on my Victorian style, high neck top from Closet, (I also think it would look super cute under a pinafore or slip dress) which compliments the structure of both the long lined blazer and Radley bag, respectively. When I’m in work mode, I wanna feel encouraged by what I am wearing too (yes, how superficial of me?) But what is it they say?

    “Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.”

    Well, that is how I feel by a well, put together, babing outfit.
