  • NYC 1 Year On | The Forgotton Photos

    American-flag

    I’m marking a very bittersweet anniversary in RCagz-land today. It’s officially been a year since my solo trip to NYC, which – yes – I am still banging on about and will continue to bang on about for the rest of my life thank you. You can check out my travel series from my trip here but I’ve also been going through some of my old snaps for my travel scrapbook (yeah that’s a thing I’m finally getting round to!) and thought I’d share some long forgotten photos from my time there.

  • Inspiration | Colour Feature Walls

    Happy Friday! Are you up for a little bit of lifestyle inspiration today fresh from my own Pinterest boards?
    Whilst, I of course love the idea of embellishing a room with nick knacks, trinkets and amazing furniture, sometimes you gotta take it back to basics. if your pockets are stretched to afford said furniture and nick knacks, a colour blocked feature wall can be just the thing to instantly makes a room pop.
    Personally I’m so drawn to the pastel colours which immediately lighten and open up a small room. Alternatively a darker hue can make larger rooms seem cosier, which is a major bonus during the colder winter months. Also judging from these photos why limit yourself to the obvious places to add colour like the bedroom or living room? I love the idea of blocking out some colour in a hallway, bathroom or kitchen as these places are often long forgotten when decorating.

  • Haul | MCM Comic Con, London

    mcm-haul-header

    Nerdy haul alert! I was at MCM Comic Con at London’s Excel Centre this past weekend and like the n00b that I am I didn’t take that many photos actually at the convention – I blame the heat and my brain functioning on like fours hours of sleep and the fact I was too scared to ask people if I could take photos of their cosplays. Nevertheless as with any convention I was in nerd heaven with all manner of merch and geek themed paraphernalia on show but I surprised myself with how restrained I was in terms of purchases. Here are a few bits and pieces I did pick up on the day…
