I have been away for a little while, mainly due to a long writing block, and a little to do with just not being in the blogging spirit. To those who have stuck around, thank you. I've had a little new year's clean up and deleted some old posts that I felt didn't really tally with the blog that I wanted this to be. Hoping this year to keep it simply about style, photography, art and travel. How was everyone's New Year's? I spent it at home with loved ones, playing games and having long discussions into the early hours of the New Year morning. I missed my friends who were out on the town, but I knew home was where I wanted to spend it this time round. It's come to that time of year again - my birthday. I don't know if it's usual for people my age to start to dread their birthdays but I think it's already started for me. I'm turning twenty-three in just over a week, and I feel like I haven't achieved half the things I had hoped when I turned eighteen. Well, let's hope I have achieved some of the things by the time my twenty-fifth year comes around. Here's to wishing!This year I will be spending my birthday in Paris, thanks to a lovely surprise from my parents. I'm heading straight to the Laudree Cafe to munch on macaroons, and then maybe head to the Louvre and then the Eiffel Tower, depending on the weather. The following evening, I'm going out with my closest friends for a karaoke session and drinks in Soho. I have been planning my outfit for awhile now, call me sad. I have taken to Moschino's 2012 Resort line for some inspiration. I've fallen in love with their tutu skirts and structured French boucle jackets. In fact, the real inspiration came after Christmas when I watched the last two episodes of Sex & The City, when Carrie is in Paris with her "Russian". She wears this mint tulle bodice dress and looks gorgeous running through the city. Now, if it's good enough for Carrie, it's good enough for me. I just need the perfect pair of heels - and my own Big of course!
