    Hedonist Project: Rum Shack, Leeds | QueenBeady

    Hedonist Project Leeds Rum Shack 7

    I’m just going to put it out there, it’s a bold statement but imma right on say it. Leeds is the food & drink capital. Yep, there I said it. Now, hear me out on this one. The wave of the ”pop up” bar & restaurant is fast becoming the ”in thing” but in Leeds I feel like we are getting some amazing new joints that have actually come on to be full-time, permanent spots because they went down so well during their short but sweet stints. The latest bar to hit New Briggate is Rum Shack. A quirky little hole. It’s unfinished and bare, but what it lacks in ”unpolished finishedness” is a bucket load of personality. Part of The Hedonist Project, you know you’re not going to be disappointed.

    Travelodge Liverpool Central The Strand 4

    I have always wanted to go to Liverpool. I’ve wanted to see the Beatles Museum and seek out that world-famous ”scouse brow” for a while now. When presented with the opportunity to road-test one of Travelodge’s newly refurbished hotel’s, I jumped at the chance to head to their Liverpool Central The Strand digs this weekend just past. Based on Albert Dock’s you can’t deny that this hotel has an envious spot in Liverpool. With great views, great shops and wonderful bars surrounding the spot, you were literally spoilt for choice. The hotel stands like a rather large, glass boxed giant over the road and is imposing but mimics the ultra modern mixed with the old on this long street that lines the docks, The Strand.

    Review: BaByliss Diamond Hair Dryer | QueenBeady

    I never really feel compelled to write beauty posts. I’m no good at beauty so there is no point in preaching about a subject that I have absolutely zero clue about! However, after my loving Mr C purchased me my new favourite fragrance, Reveal by Calvin Klein ( you must go & have a spray as it is just deliciously good!) he also bought me a new hairdryer as mine went KAPUT! After hours of scouring the internet he fell upon the Babyliss Diamond HairDryer which had a substantial saving on the Boots website. For me, a hairdryer is a hairdryer but this, is so much more!

    My hair is fine & thick, that is a fact & espite having quite a lot chopped off in November it still requires a lot of maintenance. Normally my hair would take a good twenty minutes to half an hour to dry & that wasn’t before I even started styling it! I never thought there would be a solution to creating a chic look without too much effort. But alas, with my new hairdryer my hair now only takes 5 minutes or so to dry and not only that it styles fabulously well just by brushing my ends under to create a cute long bob. A look that I’m trying to channel which is reminiscent of Olivia Palermo’s gorgeous style, TOTAL BABE!

    Now, I’m not going to go super techy & explain all the scientific information – I’m just going to read it off the box!Because of the diamond infused ceramic technology it means your hair is silky smooth and requires very little products to style it, it does all the work for you! My hair is so prone to frizz & now it is a thing of the past (I so totally sounded like I was on an advert there!) I most definitely would give this hairdryer a glowing 5 star review and by the looks of things, I’m not the only one! My straighteners are currently on the backburner, they are that good! Have you recently invested in a new product that makes your life much easier?
