I haven’t done a lifestyle post for ages but I had a really lovely Sunday last weekend. Mr Friday & I had Sunday lunch at The Rose Cottage in Rufford, Nottinghamshire. Just over the road from Rufford Park in which we had a super cute little walk round the chilly grounds. Now, down to the important bit, I’m picky about my Sunday dinners because my daddy makes the, absolute ridiculously incredible roast dinners. They are literally the best, no question.
Fashion: Style Crush; Fran Newman-Young Made in Chelsea #mic
Basially, I love Fran from Made in Chelsea’s style, I think she always looks wicked. So I’ve picked a few bits that I think she’d wear, she loves a floral bold print and a fedora. Pair with a leather jacket or statement blazer and you’ve got her effortless but oh so stylish look. Tres chic.
Lifestyle: 7 Apps That Make Your Life More Effiecient
Productivity, and getting shit done, is usually my aim for the day.
So I thought I’d share a few lil apps, that I like, that help, basically, get shit done.
Personally, to get shit done, I find that I need to take baby steps, make lists and tick things off!
This is a goal reaching app, whether it be losing weight, completing a big task or creating your dream event, Everest is a great little app that can help you along the way. “Everest exists to unlock human potential.”
I love this little tag line, so inspiring don’t you think? For my Everest, I’ve put getting my degree for my major goal, with presentations and hand in dates along the way along with little goals and achievements to get on the way.
Lifestyle: Baking Nigella's Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
So today, I decided to bake some gorgeous cookies using a Nigella recipe, they’re double chocolate chip and amazing! I was inspired by the lovely new bakeware that I picked up on the weekend from TKMaxx, the Mecca of all the things that you want but don’t actually need. These pretty cake tins were only £2.99 each and I couldn’t resist them.
The Fashion Bloodhound Showcase
On Wednesday night the lovely Leyla & I went to the Fashion Bloodhound Showcase at the Francis Hotel in Bath on behalf of The Image Consulting Company. I felt like I was walking into Carrie Bradshaw’s wardrobe or something, it was amazing. I tried on the most amazing Mawi cocktail ring, there’s pics below. Some of the pieces were just incredible. Seeing Halston Heritage and Alexander McQueen in real life, holding it in my hand, pretty incredible when you’re used to drooling over them in films, or online and you’re used to clutching a Topshop bag on the bus home. (Not that I take the bus, but you get the analogy)
Lifestyle: A Country Walk
Today was such a sunny day & I went for a walk with my girl Rose. All these photos are her own and you can see her photography tumblr here. This is a picture heavy post, but it was such a pretty day, nothing else to say!
Behind the Scenes! 90s Styling
As well as being a blogger on my own blog I write and style for my uni magazine Uni2Know and I was asked to style a 90s inspired shoot for our up and coming 90s issue. We borrowed some clothes from Braderie, a cute vintage shop in Nottingham, just on the way to the Lace Market and the lads had a load of wicked 90s gear that they brought themselves. Here’s just a few cheeky behind the scenes shots that I took on my camera. Will share the actual shots when they’ve been all edited and made wicked!
