    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…

    When the opportunity arises to try out a new menu at a local restaurant it’s very hard for me to say no. I mean come on guys, food. ALL THE FOOD. As a keen bean I’m always intrigued to see what different eateries have to offer. The older I get, the more I enjoy the slightly finer things in life (but hey, that doesn’t mean I’m not adverse to boshing a foot-long steak & cheese subbers every once in a while. Ya with me?) So, when the invitation to see what the Firelake Restaurant at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Leeds dropped in, I was pretty interested. After I did a little research online, it seemed that this was much further away from being “any old hotel restaurant.”

    I’m sure, most people who read this blog are bloggers too so I know you’ll understand when I say, “GIRL, I AM STUCK IN A RUT.” Every now & then throughout the year I find myself really struggling for content. My mind closes up on me and says “Not today Bee. Not today.” meaning no amount of word vomiting can create a coherent blog post. Except, I know I’m word vomiting now about not being able to word vomit. Sorry, did I just “inception” you right there? We’ve all been there. Some weeks I could create content for days and have scheduled posts ready and raring to go at every turn, except recently I’ve hit my half-yearly slump.

    We agreed a time and a place to meet. I was pretty nervous as it was my first time, I wasn’t sure about him. I think he’d done it plenty of times before. When we met he made me feel pretty comfortable and it made everything seem so much easier. As we found a spot, somewhere pretty secluded just on the outskirts of the city centre, he took of his bag and pulled out his impressive piece of camera equipment…

    I adore paisley print. People may associate it with Festivals and a summer vibe but I don’t see why you can’t bring it 100mph in to Autumn? For me it’s a delicate print and all the different lines, swirls and mini patterns send me in to a wondrous frenzy because you never know where it will go.

    I recently picked up this gorgeous chiffon Zara shirt from eBay & I blagged it as cheap as chips. I was too excited to receive it & I gave it my first outing last week. I have to say I’m always a little cautious with shirts but this one fit just right and I felt fabulous in it.

    I teamed with my black leathers because why not? They a super flattering and elongate your legs. What more could you possibly want from a pair of trousers?

    My black barely there heels from New Look always manage to complete a look perfectly, probably because they are just so elegant and effortless.

    For those cooler nights I would wear a light jacket, purely because I get too hot with anything else. This zip detail waterfall jack from WearAll.com is perfect to just pop on over an outfit and I love the shape to it, it’s so slimming! It really creates that androgynous, tailored style.

    Last but not least, where would an outfit be without a little accessorising? I picked up these midi rings from Primark recently and I have found myself wearing them all the time! They complimented the darker, autumnal tones to the outfit.7
