  • WHY IT’S OKAY TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ON HOLIDAY | QUEENBEADY

    WHY IT’S OKAY TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ON HOLIDAY | QUEENBEADY

    img_2555

    If you’d have told me back in January 2016 when I booked our holiday to the Dominican Republic through Ice Lolly, I’d have thought you were mad telling me that we’d spend a week of doing nothing. I’d have laughed in your face with a big ol’ LOLZA. You see, as much as holidays are for relaxing we often find ourselves adventuring out a bit and very rarely spend a week doing sweet F.A. Sadly, I was struck down with a bout of V&D due to exhaustion (my body just decided to give up on me) I was reduced to staying close to the hotel room, you know, just in case.

  • DINNER AT LA ROTONDE, NEGRESCO HOTEL NICE | QUEENBEADY

    DINNER AT LA ROTONDE, NEGRESCO HOTEL NICE | QUEENBEADY

    Imagine all your wildest, childhood dreams mixed with the finest food you would possibly ever taste. Stop. You’ve just imagined the La Rotonde at The Negresco Hotel, Nice. This little slice of wonder is situated on Nice’s seafront promenade with gorgeous views out to sea. One of two restaurants at the Negresco Hotel (which I might add does divine cocktails and definitely worth a splurge one night to experience the place) the La Rotonde is set out like a fairground carousel, complete even with carousel horses. Did I just enter Disneyland on the South of France?

    Party season is upon us. Office Christmas parties, family get together’s and everything in between there has to be an outfit for every occasion (or is that just me? Whoops!) I don’t know about you but at this time of year I need to be prepared. I always want a new dress for each event because I love shopping (and it gives me a little thrill each time) but when it’s coming up to Christmas, each pay packet is spent on presents for others (because I’m just a nice kinda gal) you can’t possibly have everything. If you’re anything like me though, you will spend hours a day a week flicking through online shopping apps to ease the shopping blues.

    I start these things you know, with the hashtag, #1. I never get further than the first one. But there’s something about this idea that just stuck with me. Am I adulting? I question this pretty much every day of my life so of course, there should “theoretically” be plenty to talk about each week. It’s also a little bit more anecdotal, a little glimpse in to how my brain works and all the crazy crap that runs through it on a daily basis. (Read: My brain is ridiculous and I need someone else to listen to the bat shit cray cray stuff it thinks up.)

    Black Friday is upon us, people going crazy for all the deals. Except me, I’m sat snuggly and warm in my cosy knit jumper, cup of tea in hand and laptop fired up. I’m shopping from the comfort from my own home without all the squawking shoppers on the high street. Blissful. Shoes are my vice, 100%. You can never go wrong with a pair of shoes. Generally you can get a pair of shoes to fit and there’s no crying about being able to do up a zip because you ate one too many 32 chicken nugget boxes (we’ve all been there) whilst crying dramatically in to your full length mirror. That’s why shoes will forever be my wardrobe favourites. And lets face it, these Ego embroidered boots are OUT OF THIS WORLD.
