    Hello old friends.

    Thought you were wondering where I’d been for so long.

    Crikey, it’s been nearly two months since I last graced this little old blog with any written word. There’s been so much happening in my life, some exciting, some not so much that I’ve just not had a) the time or b) the inclination to put finger to keyboard.

    And I just had to accept that, that was okay. So here’s a little mini thank you for sticking around and waiting for me to come out from the woodwork.

    I’ve got a little catch up coming about all the things I’ve been up to recently and the things I’m looking forward to…

    As a young teenager I’d spend many a weekend buying myself a £1 day rover to Monks Cross Shopping Park so I could browse all the shops. Sadly, that would be with very little money, but the £5 my mum would give me would always cover a Maccy D’s burger and some bits and bobs from Claire’s Accessories to fulfil my ever-growing shopping addiction. (Clearly I started from a young age.) As I’ve watched some shops come and go, the likes of Topshop and New Look and more have always been permanent fixtures and with the arrival of H&M and Primark it has gotten even more interesting over the last few years. So, when I was asked to take part in the #MonksCrossStyleHacks campaign you can bet your bottom dollar I was on board!

    CELEBRATING 20 YEARS WITH WHITE ROSE, LEEDS #WR20YEARS | QUEENBEADY

    Who doesn’t love a good ol’ shopping spree? Not me, that’s for certain! With any opportunity to give my plastic some serious thrashing, I am always ready & raring to go. Ya feel me? And when White Rose, Leeds asked me to style three mannequins for their 20th Birthday Celebrations, I could not have been more involved if I had tried. To celebrate them opening in ’97 (I will have been 7. Yes, 7 years old) we were given £97 per mannequin to create three unique looks. The sheer prospect of it was enough to make me giddy.

    What constitutes the perfect city break outfit? To be honest, I don’t actually know. But I do know what works for me. For those who were living under a rock (because I was practically shouting from the rooftops) I was in Rome last week. Early March. We weren’t sure whether we’d really thought the dates through or not when it edged closer and closer and the weather reports kept changing every day between sunshine and rain. So what is one to pack when they are heading on a city break where the weather might be inclement?

    In today’s post I’m referring to the small successes we are greeted with in life. Of course, big events can comes with an amazing sense of achievement but there is also something quite euphoric about the small glories we make throughout our life. For me there have been many moments like this. People could look at them and think nothing of it, “what on earth could you feel ecstatic about that for?” – you know the one’s, resigned to doom and gloom. I adore championing people when they’ve accomplished something they are particularly proud of, big or small. I also feel it should be something that others try and take on board, too. Wouldn’t the world be a nicer place if we all did this from time to time?
