POSTCARD FROM ISTANBUL


This post is a little different to our usual posts. Although we have a passion for fashion, our other desire in life is to travel and see the world. Last year we decided to visit Istanbul in Turkey, the largest European city that stretches across both Europe and Asia. We wanted to explore a destination that had a different culture to what we see in England, because we are always thirsty to learn about aspects of the world you wouldn't see sitting at home. We stayed at a beautiful hotel called Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Istanbul - Old Town. This facility was filled with boutiques, a spa, a gym and we also got a complimentary cookie on arrival. 

During out time in Istanbul we visited many different locations, learning out their history and culture. These places included palaces, mosques, Grand Bazaar as well as crossing over the Bosphorus Bridge to Asia. It was lovely exploring a city that was vastly different to the cities that we have grown up in. Over the next couple of weeks we will be posting photos outside to destinations that we visited. The Sultan Ahmed Mosque and the Beylerbeyi Palace. Hope you enjoy!

VALENTINES


Happy Valentine's Day everyone. Whether you're single or in a relationship, today is the day to surround yourself with the things you love. For me this includes; McFly, Tom Daley and my 9 week old baby bunny. So however you're spending this day, whether a meal with your other half or stuffing your face with ice cream in a onesie (we are the latter), we hope you enjoy it. The pictures above show a few of my favourite things and how I've decided to spend this day.

For us singletons, this day isn't the most enjoyable day of them all. However, it does mean we can have plenty of crazy fun the rest of the 364 days. Whenever I feel down, I remember this quote by Lady GaGa - “Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore.” Couldn't be more true. So to my single ladies, we've got the rest our lives to be tied down. I'm too busy getting far in my career and planing to travel the world while singing “I don't need a man ... On that note, I'm off to cuddle my furry big eared Valentine's date while avoiding all social media with their sloppy statuses.
