About Me

Hello World!

Hi everyone!

I’m just your average 30 something year old new mum working in purchasing which requires me to be incredibly organised.  I’m not… but I’m working on it, with the help of my leather bound friend also known as a Filofax, or a Midori Traveler’s Notebook

Because I love to personalise almost everything in my life, I find that a standard diary doesn’t have that appeal to me, I have to put my own stamp on it. Over the years, I’ve tried different themes dependant on my mood or a reflection of my style… or maybe just to switch things around and keep it fresh!

I love vintage style EVERYTHING!  Especially 70’s bohemian style clothing (here’s to you, Rachel Zoe, you amazing style icon, you!), and 60’s go go or Mod style clothing. I’m usually hunting around for vinyl records, in awe of gothic buildings, ooooohing over VW Beetles and Mini’s (old and new!), adoring leather bound books, rummaging around little quirky antique centres, off to a small gig or enjoying a slice of lemon or chocolate cake in a nice tea room.

I’m partial to the Stone Roses, Charlatans, Bluetones, Happy Mondays, Doves, Deacon Blue, Carolina Liar, Oasis, Courteeners, Reverand & The Makers, White Lies, Darren Hayes, Steadman, The Script, The Knocks, Kings of Leon, Kasabian, Inspiral Carpets, The Verve, Aneiki, Sting & the Police, Snow Patrol, Seahorses, Lightning Seeds, Echobelly, Couer de Pirate, Bloc Party, Alizee…  but oddly enough my all time favourite band is Savage Garden…!
