Top Pins

For those of you don't use Pinterest, first off you're missing out big time, but also, it's kind of to blame for me not blogging as many photos as I used to, I've been 'pinning' everything instead! To make up for it I'm bringing some of my favourites of the last few weeks over here. All picture sources and many more amazing ideas, pictures and inspiration can be found on my pinterest boards at http://pinterest.com/beccastephaniej/
As it stands you still have to request an invite to join pinterest, however if you get invited by a member it's a lot faster so let me know if you'd like to me send you an invite!

As you can see there's a bit of all sorts. These pictures are taken from all my different 'pin boards' which include...

• Giggles
• Quotes & Inspiration
• Wedding Wonders
• When I Grow Up (home & family)
• Just Love It
• Dreamy Looks
• Gift Ideas
• Film Inspiration
• Craft Create Cook
• Life's To Do List

Remember Remember

"Remember remember the fifth of November,

Gunpowder, treason and plot.

I see no reason why gunpowder, treason

Should ever be forgot."

Happy bonfire night everyone. Please remember to be safe if you are setting off fireworks!

Happy November Starbucks

The Starbucks Red Cups are here! Oh happy day! Along with some adorable little treats for Christmas including new Christmas mugs, red instant coffee and an adorable little red cup tree ornament! This perked up my day no end. I went adventurous and had the new Praline Mocha as I'm planning to have the toffee nut latte with my friend Sarah on Monday as is tradition. It was lovely but the only suggestion I'd make is get it Grande and give it a good stir, not Tall like I did as there was just a bit too much chocolate powder at the bottom.

Turns out I'm not the only one whose spirits are lifted by the change in Starbucks menu, I did a quick google search hoping to find some nice red cups photos to collate but it's already been done so beautifully at mode grozzer buzh - and if it ain't broke don't fix it!

 I know it's a tad late but Happy November everyone - enjoy the weekend!

Settle Back In

Since coming back from the beautiful Longboat Key of Florida things have been pretty busy with catching up on uni work, two courseworks, dissertation and of course getting ExpressLD back in order (turns out it isn't self sufficient yet and me being away that week didn't go so well!). What this means unfortunately is that I haven't got or had oodles of time to be drafting up my usual wordy posts, so mega apologies if that's why you are here! I will get back to it asap but whilst I 'settle back in' to life at Edinburgh University I'm going to be a bit more 'pretty picture based' as it's slightly less time consuming and I'll be honest I've always enjoyed a good collage.

Paint the Town Red

Recently I've become quite a fan of the colour red. So not even close to as stylishly as Nora at Hand Drawn Heart I thought I'd compile some photos to show my appreciation, including a cheeky little one of me in my new red jeans which I love oh so much.
