Following last weeks mini-break from pledging, this week the Positive Beauty Pledge is back, and comes from the lovely Leanne, of A Slice of My Life. So enjoy...Leanne's PledgeI will never say anything bad about someone else's appearance on my blog. I will not judge other people by their appearance and I will always treat other people how I expect to be treated.I tend to be quite negative about my own personal appearance, as a part of my pledge I...
So summer is here *looks out of the window...isn't entirely convinced....carries on writing anyway* So, yes, summer is "apparently" here, and all of us larger ladies are ultimately looking for ways to stay cool, but still hide our lumpy, bumpy bits whilst look beautiful.Here is an outfit that I picked up in the recent sales, the only thing I don't own are the shoes, but I have a very similar pair :)The Outfit: The dress is knee-length and really...
What I've Been Doing...It's no surprise to anyone, that part of this week has been spent putting together a few of the major details for Girls Day Out which is only three weeks away (hurrah!) We've had a lot more ladies show an interest over the week, so I'm no longer convinced that it's going to be a huge disaster.For anyone who has missed our plugging, Girls Day Out takes place in Leeds, on Saturday August 13th 2011 and everyone is invited. We're...
Well Ladies, as many of you might now, it's less than a month to go until Girls Day Out in Leeds, and I have to say that I am getting really excited.My co-organiser, the splendiforous (yes, that is a word in the Dictionary of Kat!!) Katie from LadyfromaTramp has designed a lovely new flyer featuring all the details.If you or anyone you know is interested in taking part, then head over to the Facebook Event Page and RSVP, or drop either Katie or myself...
There's no Positive Beauty Pledge this week, not because you guys aren't pledging, but because I wanted to hand over to Rebecca from Oh! Panda for a guest blog on Karma. So, here over to Rebecca :) kar·ma [kahr-muh] –noun1. Hinduism, Buddhism. The sum of a person's actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.2. The force generated by...
What I've Been Doing...I haven't really mentioned it in a while, but this week I've been preparing a couple of fun games for us to do during Girls Day Out. I'm worried that I've been making things a little too hard, or too easy (ARGH!)If anyone is interested in coming to Girls Day Out, and hasn't expressed at interest, there is of course still time. I'd really love to have an idea of numbers by the end of July, but absolutely everyone is welcome...
So, apparently certain people are boycotting my latest post, because it's too sad (it was also hard to write, so come on people, it's really about the first book more than anything :P haha!) But, anyway, to distract away from the sadness that my last post allegedly drew in, I thought I'd hide it behind another post, about something much more...erm....interesting...Basically, a few weeks ago, I *gulp* volunteered to take part in Modesty Brown's Friday...
Have you ever gone into a Library, or a second-hand bookshop; picked up a really old book and felt oddly moved by the history immersed in each page? The paper feels so fragile, and has an odour of age to it. You wonder where that book has been, who has read it, who has touched it, who has loved it, and who has cherished it more than words could ever describe. That is exactly how I feel about the very first Harry Potter book.I wasn't one of those...

This post is so overdue, it's bordering on ridonkulous! I think it's pushing a month and a half, if not two months since I bought a lucky dip from Temporary: Secretary, and the images have been sitting on my PC for the majority of that time, so I really don't have any excuses to offer, other than....nope, no excuses whatsoever. Image from Temporary:SecretaryThe Story: So, I first came across Temporary:Secretary about a year ago, when Sarah started...
