It's the first time in about six years that I haven't gone to Reading Festival and apart from not seeing Pulp I don't regret it at all. I'm getting far too old for all that malarkey now. I could possibly manage a very tame festival like Latitude at a push. This year I spent my bank holiday weekend in Torquay with my lovely...

I had a lovely weekend attending wedding receptions and my friend made me a roast dinner because I've not had one since moving house, we still don't have a proper kitchen! I've now got a full week of work ahead of me which I haven't had for most of the summer (I only work term time) not looking forward to it! This is...

Here are a few photos from the new Evans Collection range, I loved some of the pieces from the last collection and it's nice to see that they have followed up the first collection with something equally as nice. Collection seems a little more simple and high fashion than the rest of the Evans stock. It's nice to see plus size clothes that...

I continued my lovely long weekend which started with a bloggers meet up by having a little trip to London... I won tickets to the premiere of Fright Night last week on twitter (thanks handbag.com) so I booked a last minute trip to London on Sunday. I was due to arrive in London at 1pm but the show didn't start until 7 so...

I've not reviewed a book before so I was a little nervous, you can leave comments on the Judging Covers site to let me know what...

I had a lovely birthday this year, much more relaxed than usual but I'm getting old now! My mam and brother know I'm a crazy Dr Who and Harry Potter fan girl so I got a hilarious selection of cakes cards and a Hogwarts letter which came with a Hogwarts Express ticket too. I always wished that I was a witch as a...

I turned 24 today, I feel rather old now and the next 'big' birthday will be my 30th how scary is that?!  Me on my second birthday! Just had my nails done with shellac polish, it really is fab. I had it on for the Birmingham meet up and a wedding I went to the week after, it lasted two weeks with no...

I went to the beautiful wedding of my friend Alex this weekend. I met Alex in uni and we have kept in touch since graduating in 2008. Its so easy to grow apart from people when a location or course aren't holding you together but I try and see Alex as much as I can. Even the three hour train journey wont stop...
