My First Nomination :-)





Oooh I'm soooo chuffed to have received my first ever nomination for my blog!!! I've been nominated by the wonderful Trea of Treasures n Pleasures for the Liebster Award, which is awarded to up & coming blogs who have under 200 followers on Bloglovin (don't forget if you want to be notified of my latest posts you can follow me here) so a HUGE thank you to Trea for my nomination.....I tell you what if that's not an excuse *coughs reason* to hit the bubble tonight, I don't know what is...any excuse but hey it sounds credible to me ;-)

So in honour of this award there are a few simple rules that I have to adhere to starting with answering the eleven questions set by Trea.

Question One
What is your favourite food?
- I have to admit to liking a whole heap of different foods depending on my mood including Italian & some traditional English dishes but the one food I can always feel in the mood for is Chinese....especially spring rolls (which I think I may have used as an excuse when pregnant & cravings started to kick in!!!!).

Question Two
What do you think you best feature is?
- Such a hard question to answer......not because I have lots of best features but because I'm always hard on myself.......but years ago I used to get told I had lovely eyes....not that that's happened in a while....but I'll go with that!

Question Three
If you could have any talent in the world, what would it be?
- It would have to be to make time slow down or stop all together so that you can enjoy & make those precious moments last that little bit more.  Time really does go too quickly when you're having fun & we have spent the last twelve months looking forward to our summer holiday & already it is going by FAR to quickly so if I could make time stop I would be incredibly happy!

Question Four
If you had only one outfit to wear the rest of your life, what would it be?
- It would have to be an amazing tailored Chanel style jacket (preferably Chanel) with a tailored white shirt & the most flattering pair of skinny jeans known to mankind.  Add in some ballet pumps & some bling & I would be one very happy lady!!!

Question Five
Where is your favourite place in the world?
- If I didn't include our home, it would have to be where we holiday in Majorca.  This is our sixth year holidaying in the same resort & our fourth year at the hotel we are currently staying in.  It is such a lovely resort & the hotel is perfect for us with the added bonus that so many people return each year that as soon as we check in we are greeted by friends & our son has a group of around ten friends that he meets up with each year so it really does make us feel that we belong & we already have lots of special memories here.

Question Six
What is your favourite pair of shoes that you own?
- It would have to be my leopard print pony skin ballet pumps as surprise surprise I just love leopard print & being flat too, they're probably the pair of shoes I wear the most!

Question Seven
If you were invisible for a day what would you do?
- There are soooo many things I would like to do....but if I had to choose one thing it would be putting right all the injustices in the world....sometimes life can be so unfair to some truly undeserving individuals & it would be lovely just be to able to make things right for these people.

Question Eight
What accessory or item of clothing would you have, if money was no object?
- It would have to be a classic Chanel jacket...although whether I'd be too frightened to wear it would be another thing, as knowing me on the first wear I'd probably spill something down it!!!

Question Nine
What is your favourite colour?
- It would have to be tan.....not a hugely exciting colour I know but a real classic, chic & easy to wear colour that looks stunning with so many basic colours found in most people's wardrobes.

Question Ten
What is your dream job?
- My dream job would be to find a way to make my blog my full time career.  I'm on such an amazing journey with it that I would love to pursue some sort of styling career full time.

Question Eleven
Who is your favourite person in the world?
- I would have to say I have too favourite people in the world....my hubby & our son...both of whom I love dearly & who I would be utterly & totally lost without.

Having been nominated for this award it is now my turn to nominate eleven other bloggers and post eleven questions for them to answer.

The blogs I have chosen to nominate are:-

Fashion Caramel
Natalie Dressed
Heart & Soul
All Worn Out
Styled By Laura
A Life Less Ordinary
Ballet Pumps & Roses
Fashion Mommy
What Lizzy Loves
The Small Fabric Of My Life
Life, Loves And...

And my eleven questions to each of these bloggers are:-

Question One
- What is your most treasured possession & why?

Question Two
- What is the one thing you've learnt about yourself since blogging that has surprised you?

Question Three
- Who is your main source of inspiration?

Question Four
- What were the last three purchases you made?

Question Five
- If you could go back ten years what is the one piece of advice you would give yourself?

Question Six
- What rules do you try & live your life by?

Question Seven
- Leopard print or snake print?

Question Eight
- If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?

Question Nine
- Which is your favourite season of the year & why?

Question Ten
- Savoury or sweet?

Question Eleven
-  Best year of your life & why?

I can't wait to see their answers, it's such a great way of getting to know that little bit more about bloggers...... & if you haven't already done so, check out their blogs too!

Right I'm off to try & attempt to make time stop in the hope of making our holiday pass more slowly....oh & perhaps the odd bubble or two in celebration of my award ;-)

I'll be back in a couple of days with some holiday outfit posts but in the meantime have a great couple of days xx
