We're going on an adventure!


On a quiet, lonely evening I'm the type of person who looks through their gallery on their phone....which made me realise the perfect subject to write about on my return to this blog - my gorgeous birthday trip to Edinburgh with my boyfriend Ryan!

Edinburgh was a place I had always wanted to visit, with it's rich history, good food, great alcohol and vibrant spirit - a trip together to celebrate my 19th birthday in November was the perfect idea! I was even brave enough to leave the planning of the entire trip to Ryan to come up with, to all who know us both; this was a bold move on both parts....but he pulled it off amazingly!



As we had not long started new jobs when we booked the trip we set ourselves a strict budget to stick to for travel and acomodation; therefore travelling there by train was out of the window immediately as the cost of a single one-way ticket was almost double the price we managed to find a castle-view room at the Hilton for 3 nights for (!!!!) 
Flying is not a strong point for me and the flight times we could find were rubbish....so we were left with a ROAD TRIP!

For me, this was a fun and exciting idea - spending 4-6 hours at the side of my best friend on our first real 'road trip' singing away and helping him by controlling the sat nav and map - this was going to be one of my favourite moments of the whole trip!!!! For Ryan it went more along the lines of *oh no, 4-6 hours stuck in a confined space with the most irritating person I know, I have to concentrate and drive the whole time whilst she talks and sings to me relentlessly, she is awful to travel with and to say she was going to take Geography if she had gone to uni; she can't read maps and can't work a satnav...*

The drive turned out to be indeed one of the most fun parts of the trip, if not a little stressful due to our satnav and phone batteries cutting out the second we crossed the Scottish border, car trouble (wheel brushes SUCK on Astras) and getting lost in the centre of Edinburgh...
We fought big time over directions, music, how many hashbrowns a person should have from McDonalds at 6am (is 5 really too much?), stopping to pee and other road users....but we also laughed big time and the views were INCREDIBLE



Once we had finally somehow arrived at the hotel in one piece, we parked up in long-stay (we didn't need the car at any time during our stay) and were right on time for check-in! As an employee of a popular hotel brand, my expectations for the hotel, room and customer service were very high, (I would have stayed in a hotel from my brand; however their Edinburgh site had not yet opened at this point so we stayed at the Hilton Double Tree) and we were not disappointed! Arriving to warm smiles, a warm lobby and warm cookies - we were made to feel like the most important people to arrive that week and shown to our room - again; warm and gorgeous!

We had a view of the castle and the quaint traditional town-houses of Bread street, the room felt like we were the first people to ever stay and was decorated to a standard that even Mr Perfect was impressed with (seriously!!!) - dark, moody and calm.

After 6 and a half hours of driving all we wanted to do was shower and nap, it was 2pm so we did just that. Once clean and refreshed we headed out to explore the city just as the sun set. Edinburgh is easily conquered on foot, apart from in new boots....as I found out the hard way - meaning a well earned stop for Pizza was more than necessary...



On our walk back to the hotel, we found a gem of a bar/restaurant/cafe aptly named 'Ryan's' which was lit up beautifully - visiting Edinburgh around Christmas is a MUST if you haven't already. You will fall in love with the whole city immediately....we certainly did...

We decided breakfast here the next morning would be a good idea - and we were right! The inside of the place is good enough reason to visit!


The next day I was woken up by an excited Ryan who told me our plans for the day consisted of more exploring, lots of food and lots of SHOPPING so I was up and ready like a shot! Edinburgh is brilliant for shopping, especially close to Christmas, everyone is busy and excited. It is packed everywhere you turn but you never feel panicked (for me - that's saying something!) And there is every type of shop you could need or want, from high street, to department and independant. One of my favourite things about Edinburgh is that the modern elements of the city have been developed to fit into the traditional and historical buildings rather than covering them. They take care of their history and restore older buildings (inside and out) - the result is really quite beautiful. A prime example of this is Scotland's oldest department store: Jenners..



Once we had shopped till we dropped (and drank our weight in hot chocolate) we headed back to the hotel to get ready for dinner....and we looked a little something like this:


(Dress is the Abbey Clancy range at Matalan - cheap and beaut, can't go wrong)

I was then surprised with dinner at the gormet steak restaurant; Kyloe.
Hands down best steak we have ever had. Restaurant itself was stunning too; candle lit and with views right across Edinbrurgh city centre and the beautiful castle.
Beef dripping chips go down a treat with fine wine (classy)


The next day was our last full day of the trip and luckily for us the Christmas market opened this day too!
We spent a lazy morning watching rubbish on the tv in bed and then headed off to visit the castle, which, when it's mind-numbingly cold, feels like an absolute TREK.
Views aren't too shabby though...





After that it was a wander through the back streets that we hadn't yet searched, dinner at the cutest TGI Friday's ever (a tradition wherever we go as our first date was at a TGI's) and spotting a cheeky pub




And then it was Christmas Market time!







A huge hot chocolate and a nut cracker decroration purchased later, it began to fall darker and so we went skating together on the out door rink (no photos taken....for fear of falling)

Then Ryan was mean and dragged me on the big wheel...I'm petrified of heights so the smile you see took a little bit of force but you could see right across Edinburgh with it all lit up....turned out to be one of my most favourite parts of the trip...







                                                                                                                     
Following this - we had planned on another meal out and even got all dressed up for the occasion...


However the weather took a turn for the worst and we decided completely against it...instead we stayed in (still dressed up to the nines) sat in bed watching movies and ordered a HUGE room service and a bottle of bubbly....it was the perfect end to the trip!

We fell in love with the place and we are desperate to go back again at some point! I would so recommend to go!!!!

Sorry for this blog being so long in length and for how long it took me to blog again too! 'Oh-My Emily-Rose' is certainly back in business now though - I have so much planned for this year that I want to share!

Watch this space as always - thankyou if you got all the way down to this part of the post without falling asleep! 

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

Fave instagrammer of the week

I follow some of the most beautiful people on instagram. 

From their hair, to their makeup, to their clothes, their work out routines - I follow like the nosey bugger I am watching intently for a bit of inspiration. 

This week I had a good look through an instagram account that I had been following for a while who posts cute outfits that are mainly based around her beloved Timberland boots. 












I don't know quite why I love them so much, maybe it's the layout, maybe it's because I know it would never suit me and my thighs, maybe it's knowing I will never afford a pair of Timberland's myself...

Get following her - she sings too, with a UKULELE (even better!)

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

The Liebster Award


EEEK! It's here! Finally something to promote those with a smaller blog following! 
Upon being nominated I feel like I should bring out my carefully worded Oscar speech that I definitely have not had ready for the past 8 years and definitely do not have written on my best paper in my best glittery purple gel pen in my best handwriting where all the letters link together... 

I would like to thank my parents and brother, for always believing in me...you guys are my world and NO DON'T CUT TO THE MUSIC

I have been nominated by one of the most adorable people I know who's blog I envy (how DOES she find the time for so many amazing posts?!) Kassiella <3 Please go and look at her blog - I promise you it is much much better than my own! 


The rules for this are simple: 

✶ You must answer 11 questions given to you by the person who nominated you
✶ You must link back to the person that nominated you
✶ You must nominate 11 bloggers (with under 200 followers) and give them 11 new questions
✶ You can not nominate the person who nominated you
✶ You need to leave your nominees a link to your post so they can know what to do

Sounds simple enough for me I should think...

Question 1 - What is your holy grail drugstore beauty product? 
I have one product that nothing else can compare to and that is my beloved Collection 2000 Fast Stroke Eyeliner (the waterproof one of course because I am a permanent emotional wreck). I first used this product aged 12 when I was bored at home one day and discovered my mum's extensive makeup draw (she had one before they were a bblogger craze!!) It has taken me until now to get my liner even, 'flicky' enough and the right thickness, but not once has this little gem ever let me down. I have used so many other liners out of curiosity and none have come even close to the pigment, texture, wear and price of this absolute beauty of a product....excuse the pun.

Question 2 - Where is your favourite place to eat? 
Ah...'where do you fancy going to eat?'is possibly the only question that can cause an argument between myself and my boyfriend. It's such a hard question and usually comes down to what we fancy eating at the time... but even then it turns into the below: 

However somewhere you just cant beat is Frankie and Benny's - I just love the place, I love the theme, I love the music they play, I love the uniform the staff wear, I even love the fact they play Italian translation music whilst your sat on the loo! But mostly, I love their Californian Pizza; creamy goat's cheese, caramelised onions, rocket....I don't leave a crumb.


Question 3 - What is your most treasured possession?
Again this is a difficult one, I would definitely describe myself as a hoarder; you know the type of person that keeps Christmas and Birthday cards from their 8th Birthday purely 'because'. I'm going to say a couple of my most treasured things - my Great Grandma's beautiful vintage brush set, which sits proudly on my dressing table - she used to use them everyday but to me they are too special to be used so they sit pretty and safe and pristine. My Pandora jewellery, although now cliche and something every girl and their dog has; the whole idea of Pandora is that each charm or piece tells a story and my bracelet and ring certainly do. They remind me of fun, love, pride, friendship and sadly - some mistakes made too - but in the best possible way.

Question 4 - What, in your opinion, is the biggest fashion faux pas?
I'm probably not the best person to answer this question as I wouldn't class myself as a fashion expert in any way, shape or form - I simply aim to look like a celebrity and in real life look like celery.
However - something I cannot stand: clothes that are far too tight. I'm a culprit - I try to fit my junk (aka my bottom) into a small trunk (aka - Topshop joni jeans) and fail miserably. 'WEAR A BIGGER SIZE...DUH' I hear you shout.. yes I could - but the next size up feels like a tent on my waist and is baggy on my actual legs; so we go for the *I cannot sit down* look instead. However some take it too far for it to be acceptable - a double bum cheek isn't the nicest sight in the world and a sign to go shopping for new underwear (which is the best kind of shopping - so no excuses). If it feels like circulation is being cut off from your limbs, you cant fill your lungs to full capacity without popping a button and you feel like everything is on show - that is probably the case.

Question 5 - Describe your dream house
My grammar/punctuation police brain is screaming *that's not a question*.. but we will let that slide.
In my current job I see beautiful new-build properties being bought on a day-to-day basis and they are absolutely beautiful - but very out of my price range. I would love a cottage somewhere far away from the hustle and bustle of a smoggy city, where every room has been designed by myself and my boyfriend so it is very specific to us...I follow two people on Instagram who have done something similar with what was a pretty run-down house and turned it into an incredible home. They are Stacie Johns and her husband-to-be Jordan Franklin. Their home looks like this.....(excuse me whilst I scrape my jaw off the floor):




Question 6 - What is your current go-to outfit?
I'm a winter baby. Seriously - I was born less than a month before Christmas. So I find dressing for the summer a task and a half; combine that with my body shape and confidence and the fact I can't tan and you have a pale covered-up girl sweating in the shade. The autumn is finally rolling in however, so I am coming back into my element! My go to outfit would be black skinny jeans or leggings, chunky black boots, an over-sized t-shirt and an over-sized coat. I always have to have a statement bag too - one day I will have enough money for a designer one, but for now - I am very impressed with Primark's current bag stock. My current favourite is a structured light grey tote which was only £10 but looks like 10x that!!!


Question 7 - Who/What inspired you to start blogging? 
The obvious and very popular answers are the usual names you see - Zoella, Sprinkle of Glitter (The lovely Louise), Pointless Blog TV (Alfie), Tanya Burr etc but also a few less well-known names including the most stunning and fashionable person I have ever come across - Shirley Beniang. Of course I knew my blog wouldn't be an instant hit as all of the above's weren't, and to me it wasn't about fame and fortune - it was almost a test to see if anyone would even read it, never mind come back to read another post or be kind enough to follow me! I have had a youtube account for a while now, mainly for my cover videos but I do eventually want to move on to vlogging - I just have an awfully annoying voice and a slight lisp so we shall leave that for now!


Question 8 - Which is your favourite make-up brand? 
I can honestly say I don't have a favourite, every product I currently use on my face is a different brand and that is just what works for me! I am constantly changing what products I use most (apart from my trusty eyeliner mentioned above) as my teenage skin is ever changing and very sensitive (see my previous blog on the Simple products). I currently love: Smashbox Photo Finish Primer, MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation, Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Foundation SPF 20, Rimmel Clear Complexion Powder, Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder, Avon True Colour Eyeshadow Duo, Collection 2000 Fast Stroke Eyeliner in Waterproof Black, Maybelline Colossal Cat Eyes MascaraMax Factor Lasting Colour Collections Lipstick in Pink Brandy and Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Plumping Lipgloss.


Question 9 - What is the first memory you can recall?
Right - I'll be honest with you, I was a hot blooded child in the sense that I stripped off at every opportunity. You will all be pleased to know I no longer do that, if you haven't already noticed. But I literally was that little naked troll with a honey blonde afro strolling confidently into the sea when it's the middle of November whilst her parents and brother look on in shame wrapped up in their wellies and coats....
So my first memory that I can recall right now is my brother shouting 'NAKED SISTERRRRRR' down the beach in Norfolk in sheer horror. I could probably remember further back than this but it's 11.30pm and my brain won't co-operate.


Question 10 - Do you have any tattoos? If not, would you get any in the future?
Currently, I am ink free for 2 reasons: 1) I have a severe needle phobia and 2) my parents would go insane.
Yes I am 18 and therefore a legal adult who pays board each and every month and has a right to her own decisions and skin, but I respect my parents' opinion's more than anything. Some tattoos are absolutely incredible, some are mediocre and some are just plain laughable - but they are on you for life! My boyfriend currently has a large tattoo on his rib and has half completed his first sleeve. He is keen to get it completed and move on to his other arm and I absolutely love his tattoos. It's weird looking back at pictures of us together when he didn't have them and it wouldn't make a difference to me if he had them or not - his tattoo artist is truly an artist - people from all over the world come to the tattoo parlour he goes to; so the quality is as good as it gets. Yet I still cannot pluck up the courage to get one myself.
If I did man up - I already know exactly what and where...but you will have to watch this space.


Question 11 - What is your best physical feature? 
This is one of those questions where whatever you say - you will get someone whining going 'oh my godddddd you're so full of yourself' even if I was truthful and admitted - look I really don't like any part of myself.
But if I had to answer - I would say my eyes or lips. My eyes change colour depending on the weather (Green in the summer and Grey in the winter) and my lips just suit my face! MWAH!




hahahahaa just got to the end of this and realised I was supposed to answer the question's Kassi had detailed at the end of her post......Oh my well that will be another post next week (sorry angel!)

I nominate the following blogs:

* My beautiful twinnie from Fashion Through The Eyes Of Emily 
*My lovely Alice from Pals Kitchen
* The stunning Koren from Bits and Blossom Drops 
*A new find - Tamara from Too Clumsy for Cavalli 
*Another new find - Katie from Katie Writes

So in my error - I will list the questions that Kassi asked me to answer below for you to answer instead:
✶ What genre of blog do you read the most? Beauty, fashion, lifestyle, or other?
✶ Are you a Summer or a Winter person?
✶ What's one thing people many not know about you?
✶ What are your top three travel essentials?
✶ If you could time travel to another era, where/when would you go?
✶ If you were the opposite sex, how different do you think you'd be?
✶ What's the one beauty product that you wish you'd never bought?
✶ How would you describe your fashion style?
✶ What are your top five films?
✶ Do you have a happy place? If not, describe what your happy place would be like
✶ Post a selfie!



And of course I will do that myself in a later blog post!

If you have made it this far reading this- you are my favourite <3

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

Chop Chop

So after years and years of having the same long-ish, lank, boring hairstyle.... I recently took the plunge and lopped a good 6-8 inches of dead (and I mean split ends galore dead) hair off of my head!
And let me tell you, it felt gooooooood.

I hadn't realised, but I had been using my hair as some sort of wispy shield to hide behind, often taking that to the next level by being stupid enough to get a thick blunt fringe put in just as I had managed to grow my other fringe back out again. (DON'T GET OFFENDED - I love thick full fringes - I just love them on anyone but me!!) meaning that I literally had a massive piece of hair directly covering the majority of my face. I would be constantly faffing around with it, trying to tame it, trying to bring it forward so it looked longer or covered a spot on my chin. 

I once got so self conscious about the fact I thought I had a massive five-head (that's a very large forehead...get the joke?) that I even..... used a mixture of bronzer and brown eyeshadow to make my hair line seem lower. The shame. 

But, in reality, I really didn't suit it. My hair was always too naturally thick, dry and frizzy to pull any long style off, it looked lank after a few hours and trying to put it up was a nightmare because really, when you try a youtube tutorial out on yourself it doesn't magically give you the model's face too as I found out....therefore it looks like a pile of poop plopped on your noggin. But still, I soldiered on for a good 8 years trying to grow it as long as I possibly could and spent every day envious of anyone with longer hair, more interesting styles etc etc 

Apart from the fact that my hair seemed to know it's true destiny and would therefore never grow any longer than a good boob-grazing, not quite mermaid hair length. The ends would split just below my shoulders no matter how much care I took to avoid it and it would never do what it was told.

Then I went and damaged it even more by having a dip-dye done. Let's all be honest, it looked ridiculous, my hair does not take well to being dyed lighter and will immediately aim to go as putrid orange/yellow as it can (old friends from school may remember that one fateful day I arrived through those gates with a highlighter orange barnett after thinking it would be a good idea to go blonde.... it didn't last any more than that one horrible day) 

Anyway, after having a rubbish start to this year - I, very unlike me, went a bit wild. I went to a new hair dressers, I sat down and told her to take off as much as she wanted as long as it looked good and all the split ends were gone. Girls everywhere are reading this and are open mouthed with horror I can imagine, and I

was too on the inside and I think the hairdresser, who had gorgeous long hair (which suited her...darn it) nearly threw up at the thought of being the one to put her scissors into action.

But she did....and I LOVED it.


I didn't realise how liberating it would feel to no longer have hair to hide behind. It had life. It was shiny, bouncy and not a ruddy split end in sight. It was me - short and bubbly! Now a few weeks on from that glorious day, I already feel desperate to get it cut again - its now grazing my shoulders!!!!!! 

So if you're teetering on the scissor edge trying to make up your mind whether or not to take the risk and have it cut - do it. It's amazing. And if you don't like it, magically - it will grow back!! :)

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

CoppaFeel


Cancer sucks ass, you know it, I know it, the world and its dog should know it.

It has affected the lives of many of my family and close friends and their family and close friends...and that just wont do.

I have just got home from putting an over time shift in at work, and I honestly enjoyed it, there were 4 of us girls in the office (including my moooomar) and we had such a laugh. The scary thing about that statement however, is that if the statistics were applied - 1 of us in that room will get cancer in our life. Again, that is if the statistics are applied, I sincerely wish that never becomes the case.

I didn't sit there working away thinking that however, I'm an odd one, but not that odd. I simply make that statement to you now after watching a truly inspirational documentary called 'Kris: Dying to Live' on a stunning young woman called Kris, who along with her equally brave and supportive twin sister Maren, has set up the bloody fantastic charity 'CoppaFeel'.




Kris was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer just a few months after her 23rd birthday, and set up the charity just 2 months after that. It's a world away from many of the charities that are around today, as it focuses entirely, around something that is seen as a bit of a taboo subject: BOOBS.
And why not?



Boobs, love bags, chesticles, lovely lady lumps, whatever you want to call them, male or female you gotta love them. They are often seen as a defining feature of a woman, and a key element in the natural feeding of a child, quite frankly, they're fabulous, but they can also be deadly.

1 in 8 women will experience breast cancer in their life, and 400 MEN are diagnosed with breast cancer every single year. So it affects us all, no matter whether you think so or not.

And that's where CoppaFeel comes in to play. As their webpage states:

'CoppaFeel! ® exists to educate and remind every young person in the UK that checking their boobs isn’t only fun, it could save their life. We are the first breast cancer charity in the UK to create awareness amongst young people, with the aim of instilling a new healthy habit that could one day save their life.'

Kris is an all round awesome person, as you can see from her blog, labelled 'How to glitter a turd' which you can find rightttttt here.


And she is on a mission, to educate young women (and men) how serious and important it is to check yourself, get to know your bodies, and don't allow doctors to dismiss your symptoms just because you are young. It's your body, it's your life and it's your prerogative. Don't take their crap.

I urge you all to have a look at CoppaFeel and I also urge you all to genuinely copp a feel of those bad boys. Educate yourself in what to look out for and lose the whole embarrassment that comes with talking about it. Your health is way more important than other people's opinions.

Thank you Kris, you are a truly inspirational woman and I for one will do all I can to promote the wonderful charity you have created.

Oh and..... BOOBIES.

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

Mollie Makes – Handmade Wedding

The magazine that made my wildest wedding dreams come true.
It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that I have a severely unhealthy obsession with weddings. With many guys, if their girlfriend admitted that, they would give Usain Bolt a run for his money (no pun intended….well…maybe) but I am lucky enough to have a long-suffering angel who doesn’t seem to mind. Either that, or he is so petrified that he daren’t even say ;). I’m hoping it’s not the latter and that he simply breathes a sigh of relief knowing that if/when (hopefully less ‘if’ than ‘when’) it comes to our wedding, he won’t be dragged in to help plan ANYTHING, he can just sit back with a pint in hand until the day arrives, where he can again, sit back with a pint in hand.
Quite frankly, I don’t disagree with anyone who thinks it’s totally weird. I’m 18 years of age, if I had stayed on at college like many of the friends I have – I would be preparing for my first year of University to get well and truly gazeboed every night, not planning my wedding and saving for a house deposit. But not many people have had the example I have had in life – my parents.
Engaged on my mum’s 18th birthday after just under a year together, my parents were married before they both turned 20 and this year will celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary in blissful happiness as always.  I know what you may be thinking – ‘surely there must be a reason they got married so early’ – and you are right – they were desperate to be together. There was no other reason for it than that. They waited for almost 6 years until they had me, and another 2 and a half before my ‘little’ brother came along. To everyone who meets them, they are a complete anomaly in modern life and funnily enough, they have been through more heartbreak and difficulty in their married years than a million couples put together – each event bringing them closer together.
How very very soppy.
ANYWAY…..moving onnnnnn
 ‘Mollie Makes’ is a fabulous magazine that usually focuses on handmade items, crafting and all things adorable. Being a keen crafter myself alongside my mum, this magazine is one of our top go-to’s for any new projects and we treat each other to a new issue whenever we see one. I say ‘treat’, because at a fiver a pop, with me being such a tight arse with money, it’s a treat!
So when my eagle-eyed momma spotted a special wedding edition of it, we went into a geeky excitement meltdown!!!
It is chockablock full of incredible real-life weddings, ideas for handmade invites, decorations and includes links to find literally anything you see on each page – a complete dream.
Just look at this one particular featured wedding below….just look at it.







 

Beyond stunning. And every detail is hand made, even down to the hundreds of individual delicate sugar hydrangeas on their cake which they made together (am I the only one who swoons at that?!) I for one know how painstaking those ruddy sugar hydrangeas are to make and set on a cake.... *multiple curse words*

Anyway - to anyone who loves weddings, to anyone who is due to get married or to anyone who appreciates beautiful handmade items - go and get Mollie Makes in your life!!!!!

Even a cute little old guy on my bus was reading it the other day - I felt we had a real friendship bond when I geekily got my copy out of my bag too!!

Haha....apologies that my second blog post is so girly and soppy, but thats me! 

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo

Rain drops on roses...

It's a rainy day here where I am, no wonder they call it 'April Showers'!
I'm pretty new to the idea of 'blogging'...

I have all of the other social media channels you can imagine; Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Pinterest, Tumblr... you name it, I probably have the sickeningly addictive app for it.
But a blog? Totally unheard of for me!!

Any-hoo, I usually keep alot of my life under firm lock and key from everyone, I don't rate my own opinions or reviews on things and find what I have to say quite boring. However now I feel different;
 this year so far has been a flurry of emotions, new beginnings and excitement, so what better time to start a blog - for once in my life genuinely brilliant and comical things are happening and I would quite like to share them with you all!

So let's start by filling you all in on who I am, if you have managed to read this far without errupting into snores, you may aswell carry on;

My name is Emily-Rose, many know me as Em and most know me simply as 'that small weird one that sings' (no comment.) I'm 18 years young, mind of an 80 year old, soul of a 3 year old and the size of a 10 year old, but who's counting. I'm a winter baby through and through, with a love for all things pretty and handmade and I am obsessed with vintage and floral details (queue rolling of eyes thinking I am just like every other teenage girl - HOLD UP - give a girl a chance!) My guilty obsessions include motorbikes, weddings, food and Aerosmith. Not necessarily in that order.

Now that you all want to be my best friend, I will post for you as much as I possibly can and hopefully make you giggle from time to time!

Lots of love, Emily-Rose xoxo
