Date Night; Turtle Bay, Leeds

Last week for date night I used up a voucher I had won at Leeds RAG Fashion show which was a meal for two at Turtle Bay in Leeds. Recently everyone has been raving about it and I thought it was about time that I tested out the food and checked out what the fuss was all about.

Valentines Date Ideas...With a Twist

So as it's Valentines Day tomorrow, I brainstormed some ideas that I thought maybe fun to do this year. I know that living busy lives means fitting in something fun to do can become hard but that shouldn't stop you! Here are my favourite ideas to do, and even if you cant get any of them done this valentines day, they are still good fun to do for a date night what ever time of year.

1. Drive to the nearest beach at night and watch the sunrise-make sure you take a flask of hot chocolate!

2. Have an inside picnic, complete with mini sandwiches and lots of cake!

3. Do something completely different, whether you go skiing, rock climbing or learn to knit together, as long as its fun you will both enjoy it!

Incoming; Leeds RAG Fashion Show!

This year I have the privilege to be working for Leeds RAG Fashion Show as part of the Fundraising team, meaning that I have been helping to raise the funds for our charities and to allow the show to be put on.

If you haven't heard of  LRFS then where have you been? It is one of the most highly anticipated events of the year at  Leeds University and in the city of Leeds in general. With 800 guests the night is filled with glamour, fun and naturally fashion.

Happy New Year; Goals and Resolutions for the year to come

Happy New Year to you all! I hope as you lie in bed or on the sofa watching tv that you're not feeling to fragile from all the celebrating that has taken place over the Christmas season.

Having looked back on the past year I feel like it's time to look to the future with some new years resolutions. I'm one of those annoying people who really do treat new year as the opportunity to try new things (even if they don't always stick) and so I thought that maybe sharing them would help keep me on the straight and narrow.

2015; Highs, Lows and a Look Back

This year has been a strange one, from completing a placement year to travelling with my best friend and then having to head back to university. I have experienced pretty much every type of emotion and gained a better understanding of who I am as a person along the way so I decided a look back at the largest events this year was in order.

Last Minute Christmas Presents for Her

Christmas gift buying has got to be one of my favourite parts of the holiday season. There is nothing better than finding your friends and loved ones the perfect gift to put a smile on their face.

Girls are never easy to buy for and so I thought I would throw a little inspiration your way if you're still struggling and want to grab your last minute bits and bobs!

OOTD; The Best Culottes Around

Recently university has been crazy busy and so sadly, my blog has had to take a little bit of a back seat for what feels like FOREVER, I just have had a whirl wind month with becoming part of the Leeds RAG Fashion Show Committee, joining a new sports team (lacrosse) and meeting lots of new people. If you're in Leeds save the 11th Feb in your diary, the LRFS will take place then and it's going to be an amazing night for incredible causes if you're near the area!

Now that I feel like I finally have a little time, I'm going to try and pick up where I left off in September! HOW ARE WE ALREADY IN NOVEMBER!

So a one of my favourite autumn OOTD to begin.

Top Tips For The Garden Route, South Africa

The garden route is a route I would recommend that everyone do at least once in their lives. It is a lot more commercial than the wild coast from Durban to Port Elizabeth but that doesn't mean their isn't some amazing places to visit and things to do. If I could do my trip all over again all I would want is to have another 3 days at each place so I could really explore.

I have spoke a little about my trip so far but I felt I should highlight the best things I did in each area!

First stop of course is Jeffreys Bay (where my last post was about, find out about it here).
