Royal Yacht Fun

I've been lucky enough to have my parents up with me over the past week and I couldn't wait to take my dad over to Edinburgh to have a good nosy around the Royal Yacht Britannia. I'm not going to lie, I adore the Royal family and I'd love a boat, so wandering around the Yacht is like a piece of heaven. How much money would I need to build my own I wonder? I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again; I think I'd make a great princess. Harry if you're reading this, call me.

Knots are pretty, I'm sure that they have very serious uses but they sure are nice to look at.

Anyone else want a whole barrel of rum?!

They wouldn't let me sit here to eat my scone...

A Pink A

I love a good bit of personalisation, especially if it is pink. Bombay Duck, I love it.

New Kids + BSB = a boyband-tastic post

So, in December I realised that Backstreet were indeed back! And yesterday I found out that the Backstreet Boys are touring with New Kids on the Block. Beautiful. Only from the look of it they aren't coming to the UK, anyone fancy a trip with me to see them?

Favourite Discovery of 2010: WAH Nails

The lovely girls at WAH Nails have proved very useful and inspiring this year.After discovering them at the beginning of 2010 but living in Glasgow and unable to actually get to WAH Nails

to have my nails done professionally, I have wasted many an hour scrolling through their blog and gushing over the nails that they do!

All of these wonderful nails inspired me to buy a Models Own/WAH Nails pen and try to create some nail art myself - I need a lot of practice! Get your own here.

Life Calender

I love simple daily diaries. I keep a photograph a day (just taken on my mobile) in a notebook as a mini diary. So I think that this life calender is just genius! The idea is simple, record daily how you are feeling - brilliant!

Favourite of 2010: Glee

I don't think I'll be alone in admitting that Glee has been a guilty pleasure of mine this year. That's rightm, I am a gleek and proud! What's not to like, bright, colourful outfits and bursting into song at every opportunity. It's an instant cure for a frown! Emma Pillsbury is with out a doubt my style crush in Glee, her twin sets, pencil skirts and perfectly styled hair is to die for. 

And lets not forget the Glee cast's rendition of Bad Romance. A-mazing!

First Favourite of 2010

Now this is going to sound shallow and just plain sad, but one of my favourite moments of 2010 was being introduced to Mad Men. Anyone who reads my blog regularly, knows me or ever bumps into me in the street would have heard me gushing over Mad Men. Not only is it a fabulous series that me and the boy can agree on watching (a massive rarity) but the styling is to die for! Just look at the sharp suits and pencil skirts.

I have a complete style crush on both Joan Holloway and the actress Christina Hendricks. As someone with a fuller figure, shall we say, I think it's delightful to see Christina's curves on the tv and to hear such positive things being said about her healthy size!

Not to mention that the hair styles are totally lust worthy, I have spent the last few months trying to perfect a 1950s up do. I've only been able to achieve it once, so my new years resolution is to become a master of the up do.
