#lincsblogmeet 21st June 2014 – The Day
As you might have seen on twitter, and from this post here, myself and Bee, my best friend and the blogger behind Journeys are my Diary hosted a blog meet on Saturday 21st June in Lincoln. We first approached the idea when I was down for my birthday in March and this idea came into action by the end of March. We already had a few definites in the form of friends, but I don’t think either of us realised that we would end up with over twenty attendees, not including ourselves! I won’t sugarcoat it by saying organising your own blog meet is as easy as pie, it’s not…

Insta-Month May
Quesadillas for Cinco de Mayo // Ariel inspired look // Teapigs Tea at Bloggers Teaspoon Second Crown & Glory Mystery Box // My Princess Pendent Necklace from DYO Fabulous Jewellery // My gorgeous canvas from Red Canvas Ltd Sleeping Beauty Castle selfie // Harry Potter-ed up // With my bestie Bee, there are too few photos of us!

The Fairytales Tag
As this post goes live, I’ll just be taking off on my way with Little Miss and my mum to Disneyland Paris! I’ve purposely scheduled this at 13:00 which is the time of our flight. How exciting! This week I will have guest posts and a few tags and such I have written in advance so the blog isn’t standing unloved. Please comment and like as normal, and of course check out the guest posts! Anyway, I’ve been saving up tags to schedule while I’m out and about as they’re something that can easily be done in advance. I have this Fairytale Tag which I think first did it’s rounds…

Outfit of the Day – Exploring Sammydress.com
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, or following me on Twitter, you’ll know since the turn of the year I have been on the hunt for the perfect black tulle skirt. Well a few weeks back, I found it. And of is she perfect! I have the wonderful people at Sammydress to thank for it. They emailed offering me the chance to become one of their I-Try Program and to kick it all off I got to choose something to review from a select range of item. As soon as I saw this beautiful black tulle skirt, I…

April Reads
I keep thinking I did really badly on my book reading this month, but in actual fact, I didn’t. I technically only read one books, but since the second book I started mid April is 800 pages odd long in tiny print with hundreds of characters, I don’t think it’s surprising i’m not even a third of the way through. Yes, you guessed it, I started to read A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin. I’m only 200 pages into the first book Game of Thrones and it’s hard going, but I’m enjoying it. The book I did manage to read happened to be a tour guide,…
