Farewell to Summer
When did September get here? Yes, try as we might to hold on to it, summer is gone. The air has a chill to it and the leaves have begun to fall from the trees and the sun’s…
Outfit of the Day – Ready, Set, Ceilidh
This was my outfit of choice for a friend’s 21st birthday ceilidh. Ceilidhs are fast and energetic, so the number one priority is wearing something that’s easy to move in. I thought this dress was light and playful…
642 Things – I Was Warned
I picked up a new book recently, called 642 Things to Write About, which does what it says in the title. It contains hundreds of writing prompts, which I plan to use and post on here. So here’s…

Outfit of the Day – Drifting Along
Some days you just want to drift through life, putting in the minimal effort possible. However, I’ve found that this doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t dress nicely while doing so. This outfit took seconds to throw together, but…
The Scotch Whisky Experience
It’s a common occurrence that no one ever goes to see the sights in their own town. This is certainly true for me, as I had seen very few of Edinburgh’s sights, at least before working at summer…
