    I’m in a really good place at the moment, as I mentioned in a earlier postI thought it was a good time as ever to grab the bull by the horns and really get back on track with my health and fitness regime. Both physically and mentally. I find that when I’m feeling really positive it spurs me on to be more mindful and look after myself that bit extra – there is no time like the present to kick some balls. Here’s how I’m keeping healthy both body & mind!

    Do you want to go to the Seaside? | QueenBeady

    I’m not try’na sav that everybody wants to go. I fell in love at the seaside, the seaside.

    Oh, the Seaside. One of my favourite places to be. The sights of the blue ocean, the sounds of waves lapping against the shore and the seagulls squarking, to the smells of fish and chips and the real proper doughnuts you can get. There is nothing quite like it and wish I could be nearer to the coast (or alternatively another beach destination? I’m not fussy, Kefalonia, Italy, I’ll take it.) So when we took an impromptu trip to the Yorkshire Coast a couple of Saturday’s ago I was a giddy, little kipper.

    You know when you have had a post brewing for many months? Well it was my turn to break the habit and present my post on the Leeds Fashion Initiative event I went to back in November 2015 (crikey – that’s 6 months ago now?) It was held at the Leeds Museum which was such a great and unique setting for pre-show drinks surrounded by stuffed animals! Pretty crazy I know, but all the same really cool. Luckily I had Jennie from LifestyledByJennie.co.uk to keep me company in a room full of sophisticated fashionista’s and journalists. It’s crazy how bloggers like us get invited to these events.

    Everyone knows that life can start to get in the way. I know I have been living life at a fast pace recently and it’s hard to know when to stop. It take it’s toll on your body and when I start getting ulcer upon ulcer on my tongue I know I need a bit of a time-out. There’s a few things that I have been adding in to my daily routine recently. For many of you, like myself, social media and keeping up to date with it is a massive part of society now. I never have my phone more than a metre away from me, which is pretty sad and not only that; it’s exhausting. I’ve been trying to figure out ways that my body can relax without technology getting in the way.

    We all want to travel the world (well, most of us!) and it seems that every time I log on to Instagram some bikini clad person is strutting around some amazing beach whilst it pours it down with rain here in the UK. Queue a cake-ridden binge fest to drown my sorrows. One, they look amazing in said bikini and two, I’m not there. As mentioned in previous posts  I was once a travel agent for 8 years so know a few tricks of the trade to make sure you are getting the most for your money. Luckily we make roughly 3 trips abroad a year, with a few UK breaks thrown in too & I want to share with you how we plan for our travel plans cost effectively!
