    IBIZAGRAM: IBIZA IN INSTAGRAM SQUARES | QUEENBEADY

    Oh. How I am already dreaming of blue skies, sandy beaches and cocktails on tap. And I’ve only been back just over a week. I’m sure most of you will agree that going on holiday is one of the pleasures in life that I don’t think I could live without. There’s nothing quite like hopping on a plane and heading somewhere for a bit of R and R. Plus, the hot weather that the UK seems to be lacking this week is giving me a serious case of wanderlust. So, without further a do, I bring you #IbizaGram – the snaps I tantalised on my Instagram page when I had a dose of Vitamin Sea.

    It’s safe to say that as much as I have loved so much of my content this year, I’ve not really brought it back to basics. From the photos I adore taking to the written word that goes with them, I’m always trying to create a substantial post that includes many long paragraphs. Don’t ask me why, but I’ve felt that that is the only way to be classed as a “proper blogger” and sometimes, I really don’t have to spend hours constructing a blog post but I still manage it. But I’ve felt exhausted after writing them sometimes. As I get closer and closer to my holiday, I can feel my “old self” trickling through again. The type of person who enjoys life, laughs till my belly hurts and heading on “off the cuff” days out. So, I’m dedicating this post to all the things that have made me smile recently.

    I have been dark haired ever since the day I was born. I came out with jet black hair and a heck of a lot of it. Everyone laughed and joked that I looked like a little monkey. For our Wedding, my hair grew and grew once more and my locks were a deep auburn/brown still. As soon as our Wedding day was over and done with I decided that it was now or never to make a drastic change to my look. So with that, my luscious, long locks were cut off to a bob and so the task of getting my hair lighter began.

    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.
