    I make absolutely no apologies for the photo heavy post here. When you feelin’ good, you feelin’ good. Am I right? And that Saturday morning I was most certainly #werkingit. I’d gone to the effort of blow drying my hair till it was burnt to a singe ready for the Bloggers Brunch event in Leeds that day and I needed to look my best. After all, the blogging Goddess that is Hannah Gale was going to be there too. To complete my ensemble (seeing as the sun was shining gloriously that day too, well for all but 5 minute before I walked out the house) I knew it was time to deck myself out with a little, cheeky bardot top from New Looks Summer range and you can find this little sexual number here. But alas, as I walked to the bus stop (because I’m a super cool, bus wanker at the age of 26) the heavens opened, leaving me questioning my summery get-up.

    TREND WISHLIST: BLUE + WHITE | QUEENBEADY

    BLUE AND WHITE

    Striped Top | Hello Sailor Top | Sandals * | Beach Please Phone Case | Blue Dress * | Sunglasses | Blue + White Embroidered Top | Boyfriend Jeans | Off the Shoulder Top | Culottes
    If there’s one trend that is prominent for Summer ’16 is the hues of blue and crisp white. Reminiscent of the sunnier climates of Greece and their dome buildings, this trend is something that is quite clearly here to stay. I for one, am loving this season, it’s made me remove myself from my (not so) everlasting love with the colour black. It’s time to bring back a little bit of colour in to our lives and this is clearly the way to do it.

    I was called “very strong-willed” the other day. It’s very far away from the view I have of myself to be honest. I just see myself as a panicky, over-thinking, late-twenty year old mess. But then, I got thinking about it. Maybe I actually am quite “strong” – because some of the things I have to put up with, which for the purposes of this blog I will not actually go in to detail, a lot of people probably would have said a big “F U” to, many, many, maaaaaany moons ago. The same person who said I was “strong-willed” I actually stood up for the other day in a slightly heated discussion. One where it felt like they were getting the blame for something that in all it’s entirety was not their fault. So yes, I sat back and thought deeply (yeah ‘cos I am deep & shit!) and came to conclusion that actually yes, maybe I am.

    A WEEKEND IN OSLO #2 | QUEENBEADY

    The second full day with our weekend in Oslo at the end of May saw us head on a bit of a wild goose chase. We just couldn’t find anywhere like the Nighthawk Diner (if you click this link you will enter the world of the best breakfast I have EVER eaten!) for brunch that I had a (minor) paddy. We ended up sharing a Subway that was about 5 feet away from our hotel after a good hour or so of traipsing around finding somewhere to eat. Some of you may know when my levels reach “hangry” I am not to be messed with so the steak, cheese & chilli foot long was exactly what I needed to make sure we had a pleasant day seeing some more of the cities sights which were dotted around the city. The first stop was the Royal Palace and the view down to Karl Johans Gate which was only a five or ten minute walk from our hotel, HTL Grensen.

    So I wrote a post about where Summer had got to? Then within an hour of the post going live we were subject to temperatures way past 20 degrees Celsius. I now know that all I need to do to win the lottery is write a blog post about “WHERE ALL MA MONEY AT?” (I joke, of course!) so I was a little bit worried to write a post only days later entitled “The sun has got his hat on” that he might go back on his jollies and take his sunshine elsewhere and leave us Brits with the rain, again. I guess I’m going to have to take a risk and we will just have to wait and see, won’t we?
