I love wild weather…I am a storm chaser at heart! I obviously don’t want people and animals being hurt, or property damaged, but I am totally in awe of the sheer power that Mother Nature can let loose when she feels like it! When the weather forecast hints storm activity, I always get a little […]

Flow Magazine is a gorgeous magazine produced in the Netherlands….it was originally launched about 5 years ago in an attic in Haalem, a Dutch town near Amsterdam. And thankfully for those of us who can’t speak Dutch, an international version in English was developed in late 2012…and there is now also a German edition too! […]

Today I did something I have been meaning to do for ages….go to our local library and sign up! As a kid, my mum regularly took me to our local library to stock up on books for the month….at one stage, we regularly went to two libraries…one near home and one near school. And in […]

I first came across this publication a few months ago while browsing the shelves at my local newsagent…not surprisingly, the word “vintage” caught my eye! To be honest, I have never been on holiday in a caravan…I have stayed in caravan parks over the years, but that was in cabins. And I hate getting stuck […]

I am a sucker for gorgeous books…despite loving new technology, I still very much prefer to feel the pages as I read….so combine that with my current obsession of all things vintage, I just had to get my hands on a copy of Vintage Girls, by Nadia Barbaro. Vintage Girls is available as a limited […]

I have to admit I had never heard of Sophie Amoruso…that is until I came across her recently released book, #GIRLBOSS. It certainly wasn’t a book that I would normally read, but after a quick Google search to find out who she was, I was curious enough to track down a copy. Amoruso is the […]
