    When mid September comes round you can normally kiss goodbye to festival season. The likes of Glastonbury, Leeds Festival and V Fest are all distant memories of this years coup of music fun. So thank God, for OnRoundhay! Leeds latest festival offers a stellar line up, food to keep everyone’s tums happy and complete with a dedicated children’s area making it a fun filled day for all the family. How cute? And because of the sudden heatwave it gave me a great opportunity to wear this fab dress from Trendeo too, the ultimate festival dress.

    Growing up we are always finding ways to fit in, be the best and generally muddling through our teenage lives without trying (but failing) to F up everything. I’ve spoken on here before about how my teenage years were riddled with confusion. One minute I’d find my tribe and the next I wasn’t welcome. It was hard. I’m confident, not scared to stand up for what I believe in, yet I’m plagued with worrying about the aftermath of that. As I’ve grown older I’ve found my voice a little bit more and the best way to use it, funnily enough, this blog is where I let my creative juices flow. Whilst I do wish I had certain things – “Hello, lottery win, where are ya?” I’ve managed to carve something of a life that I can feel content with. I’ve got a whistle stop tour of how you can create a more chilled out, stress-free, content life for yourself.

    Firstly, I gotta give you a lil #LOL before you read any further. That precariously placed red splodge you see on my jumpsuit leg, this numpty went and spilt bright red nail polish on myself when it got it’s first outing and I can’t get rid of it. Any removal suggestions will be gladly welcomed as I just love it so much. Okay, okay back to the moral of the story. Lemme break it down for you hunnies. YOU DON’T NEED UNI TO GET YO’ DREAM CAREER. SHOCK. (Have I been watching too much Ru Paul?) I didn’t go to Uni and have had two very successful (or at least I like to think?! Yikes do I wanna blow my trumpet anymore?!) careers in my 10 years of working life. I didn’t go to Uni & I’m not a failure!

    #WASHEDINHAPPINESS WITH FATFACE | QUEENBEADY

    FAT FACE #WASHEDINHAPPINESS 1

    I like to think that I exude “happiness” – mainly when I’m around other people. I get cheap thrills out of hearing people laugh and enjoying themselves. Call it crazy, but I don’t mind being a joker and cracking the gags to make people smile. I think it’s just in my nature. To me, what is the point of being glum? I get it, not everyday can be a bed of roses and we can’t always wake up with our best face on, but isn’t it so much lovelier when world is full of laughter. Especially, when there is so much sadness in the world. FatFace’s latest range includes bold, tribal prints mixed with earthy tones and really set you up for a casual summer wardrobe and it’s all about being #WashedInHappiness – what a lovely campaign?!

    THREE IPHONE SE GIVEAWAY | QUEENBEADY

    QueenBeady Workwear Express

    Okay, shit is getting real. I have a brand new iPhone SE to giveaway in conjuction with Three UK. I am a total iPhone whore, I’ll hold my hands up and admit that. I’ll never head to the dark side and get an android. It’s just not the way in BeadyLand. Whether it be taking photos, to surfing the web or blogging, I’m (slightly) ashamed to admit my phone is never less than a couple of feet within reach. I’m pretty sure that most of us are in this day and age!
