Knicker Addict

I seriously think that I have an addiction to buying new underwear, everytime I go shopping I end up buying new knickers! Like on Wednesday in Manchester I only went for a mooch around but ended up with loads of new underwear, I can't stop myself, I really do have a problem! Ahh well, at least they're cute! These are probably my favourite ones I bought. :) 

Sam McTrusty

I'm a tad in love with his accent :)

Sandy Lane

Just a little poem my Grandma wrote for me ages ago about the town she grew up in :)

I want a bike!

Ever since we went to Amsterdam and hired bikes for the day I've really wanted a new bike- particularly one with a basket on the front! The last bike I had was bright pink and I out grew it about 10 years ago so it's definitely time I invested in a new one!

One like this would be perfect! :)

Baking

After watching the Great British bake off and falling in love with Rob off it, me and my brother decided to get a bit creative and bake a huge three tiered cake. It was a bit of a challenge but kind of worked out in the end, even if it didn't look the most professional! I also baked some cute cupcakes. My Dad even caught the baking bug and baked some bread which made the house smell lovely- a nice suprise for my mum who had been working all day.

 I really enjoy baking, I think I get it from my Grandma who used to be a baker and usually bakes everyday, she doesn't even need to weigh out the ingredients anymore she's that much of an expert. She used to bake our birthday cakes when we were little, I'll always remember her making a hickory dickory dock cake for my 4th birthday party :)

First Fig

My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It casts a lovely light.


I saw this poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay written in the window of a cute café whilst on holiday two years ago, I just think it's a really nice poem! :)

Finally...

After years of reading blogs, I blame lookbook and Petite Anglaise, I have finally decided to join the masses and start writing my own. I’m going to keep this short and sweet and try and not waffle on and bore you! I’m probably going to use this as a way of collecting my general thoughts and musings, which to be honest will be quite random and weird but that’s me for you! I’ll also include the odd fashion post which will also be on my lookbook account. People say that I’m quiet and shy but I’m really not so hopefully this will show them the real me.

As a random side note, look at the pretty rose I found in the garden :)
