    OOTD Channelling my inner Italian | QueenBeady

    WELCOME HOME! I hear you shout!

    Some of you may or may not know (and if you don’t, do you live under a rock?!?!) that I have been wedding-fying and honeymooning myself up with my HUSBAND.

    I hope to bring you a few posts over the next few weeks that share a glimpse and a peek into our special day, but for now in the spirit of keeping our honeymoon alive & well I thought I would post an outfit inspired write up today because I have been lusting after the Italian lifestyle.

    “why?” I hear you say. Well. Let me tell you.
    1. Everything is just effortlessly chic.
    I could go on to point 2 but to be honest the above sums it up pretty nicely. Having skirted and winded around the Amalfi Coast, explored the billionaire practise that is Capri, people watched from a quaint cafe in Sorrento I can safely say we experienced all of what the beautiful region of Italy had to offer.

    I have so much to look forward to this year. I thought I’d be lost after the wedding with something to do but I’m looking forward to my first Bloggers Meet in Leeds next month, so please say hello if you will be there too!

    How would you dress for Italy? I’d love to know, post your comments below!!

  • Leeds Festival Line Up | QueenBeady

    Leeds Festival Line Up | QueenBeady

    Yes, some of you may know I am a little obsessed with Leeds Festival! Having been since 2008, I overindulge in the festival feeling. We camp (even though we only live 5 minutes up the road!), we drink, we dance, we just live & breath the atmosphere. I sit patiently for for Zane Lowes announcements in the months running up to Leeds Festival & I have been pleasantly surprised this year. A few of my own personal predictions have topped the bill such as Foster the People (they have a new album this year – perfect pitch for that. PLUS, they put on an amazing show in 2012!)

    I am so excited to see Arctic Monkeys, again, another prediction that I nearly cast aside when I saw they were headlining another well known festival. But, my dreams came true when they announced that they would be tearing up the main stage of Leeds Fest in 2014!

    So, Monday saw the main & final headline announcement. Now much to my dismay, they have “co-headliners” of Queens of the Stone Age & Paramore. Having seen both, they are mediocre… & I will leave it at that. Is it just me or if you have to co-headline a festival you really shouldn’t be topping the bill of one of the best festivals in Europe? I can’t say I am overly enthused but, I don’t call the shots at Festival Republic (although I wish I was!).

    Another amazing announcement was PENDULUMs DJ set! I am BEYOND excited. They played in 2008 & that year was amazing. If you could’ve merged years 2008 & 2013 together I think my dream festival would have been created. I cannot wait to see them and get my groove on to some of their major classics. I know James & I will be bobbing away like lunatics!

    I could go on & on & on & on & on & on (you get the gist!) about Leeds festival, I really could. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this years line up for 2014 too & let me know if you are going too!
