  • Wanderlust | When In Rome

    Inspiration-Rome2015

    It’s official and booked. I’m heading to Rome this Summer for a holiday with the famalam.

    It’s quite a departure from my original plans to visit one of the Nordic countries – and literally the complete opposite temperature too lol – but I’m excited to soak up some sunshine and get my historical-geek hat on too (I’m a total sucker for classical history, it’s like my one regret not taking Classics for A Level).Not only that but I am crazy excited for the ridiculous amount of Italian food I will be consuming whilst out there and, yes, I am expecting to arrive back into the UK about a stone heavier for it – totally worth it.

  • Inspiration | Pantone Spring 2015 Colours

    //Aquamarine//Scuba Blue//Lucite Green//Classic Blue//Toasted Almond//Strawberry Ice//Custard//Marsala//Glacier Grey//Dusk Blue//Treetops//Woodbine//Sandstone//Titanium//Lavender Herb//

    I may be a little bit weird to get excited about this, but Pantone announced their Spring 2015 colour line up and guys it is gorgeous! This season palette, called En Plein Air, is a dreamy mix of softer pastels and light ‘neutrals’ which is wonderfully refreshing and very much in tune with the season. Amongst my favourites are definitely ‘toasted almond’, ‘dusk blue’ and ‘strawberry ice’, but I’m also still totally in love with the richer and darker tones of this year’s Colour of the Year ‘Marsala’.

    You guys probably don’t care too much about this but hey doesn’t this new palette provide some super pretty inspiration *points to moodboard*. Am I right?

  • Inspiration #14 | Acceptable in the 80’s

    Inspiration-1980s-inspo

    Hot off the back of my last ‘Inspiration’ post on The Heathers and my current obsession with Taylor Swift’s 80’s-tastic new song ‘Out Of The Woods’, I’ve been rekindling my love of the 1980s.

    I also recently came across a playlist on 8Tracks called 80s Boombox and oh man everyone needs to listen to it play it through at least once. It’s pure cheese, synth-tastic and seriously the only the thing I’ve been listening to the past week.

    There’s a reason why my 18th birthday was themed in this era, the music is honestly quite unbeatable and I dare you not to start dancing along to Huey Lewis & the News or start miming along into a hairbrush to ‘We Are Not Alone’, ‘In Your Eyes’ or ‘Man In Motion’.
