The Household Cavalry Museum

March 24, 2014

For those of you who don't know, this week is #MuseumWeek over on Twitter.  If you log on and follow the hashtag you will find loads of information about what your favourite museums are up to.  There's a different theme every day, today's was a day in the life', you can check out the daily themes here.  I think its a great idea and my dream job would be travelling around visiting museums and blogging about them (someone tells me that exists!).  This inspired me to visit a blog post a planed ages READ the POST

Time for a change: My hair throughout the years

March 15, 2014

This blog post could also be titled 'why my hair is fried'.  As soon as I hit my teens I was desperate to dye my hair, my mum told me I couldn't until I was 16, but at 15 she finally relented and it all got crazy from there.  Why am I talking about this now?  Well my once beautiful pink locks have faded to a horrible yellow/blonde and with having a sort of serious job now I wanted something a bit more practical, but still fun.  What is that going to be?  Well you'll just READ the POST

OutlandishPixel Pixel Art

March 11, 2014

I get a lot of complements from newcomers to my blog about my lovely banner, I adore it and it's one of the favourite parts of my layout.  I love the fact that it's completely unique and shows off my style perfectly while having that geeky hint that is very me.  If I'm honest I'm lucky, my boyfriend is a pixel artist so he did created it for me, and tweaked it till be both were happy.  As much as I admit I am kind of biased, I do think he's really good, so I thought for something a little READ the POST

Booking a food tour with Get Your Guide is quickly becoming a staple of my trips!  I love that I can get so many local foods tried as well as learning about the history and culture and the food is always excellent.  It’s especially great when I’m doing a city break and short on time!  Let me know your Italian faves!
