Leeds, Leeds, Leeds.

First stop - Pret. It was necessary to destroy a tuna baguette and massive coffee. I don't know what magic ingredient they place in their tuna but it is heavenly.

Leeds, Leeds, Leeds.

I woke up super early (feeling slightly worse for wear) to hop on a train to Leeds for a fun filled day of shopping, cocktails, food and friends.

It was such a good day and much needed! To say we went shopping is a bit of a overstatement - we wandered aimlessly around the shops and staring longingly into shop windows. I did however purchase a pair of snazzy glasses from Primark and Rosie almost succumbed to buying a pair of what can only be described as hooves. We stumbled across Epernay (which is an pretty amazing champagne bar - fanciest eh?) a little earlier than expected and spent the remainder of the day drinking cocktails and pushing ourselves to eat olives (3 try rule, right?) before meeting Carrie for a dirty, debaucherous feast.

I filmed my way around Leeds - looking slightly mental but insistent on documenting my day. You can see it here - 'Ashley Fauguel Rambles'

Top, Tights and Socks - Primark, Everything else - Vintage/Thrifted.

Rosie and Carrie - yay.

Dirtiest, most amazing meal.

What's in my Bag?

iPad, Kafka on the Shore, iPod, destroyed phone, the best glittery £2 Primark sunglasses, spare hair ribbon, Bastiste, lip balm, hand gel, mirror, business cards, keys, railcard, money purse, card wallet and make up purse.

What's in my Bag?

I thought I would do a bit more of a refined 'what's in my bag?' blog post to go alongside my YouTube video for those of you who prefer blogging time to YouTube time. The bag I am currently using (for nicer activities) is my most ladylike Louis Vuitton present, for everything else I just shove it all into my now decrepit Zara pleather tote.

I like to YouTube, YouTube

I like to YouTube, YouTube

Today was the day I filmed my first video. It's a weirdly scary prospect talking to a camera - like a silver eyed devil is quietly judging you... I woke up today and thought what the hell, what's the worst that can happen. If I don't like it I can just take it down and put YouTube in a 'watch only' drawer in my head.

I am not too sure what type of videos I will continue with but I wanted to keep it simple and easy for my first one. The idea of a 'what's in my bag' video seems ridiculous but I seem to love watching them, my inner nosy old lady rears her head and stays transfixed to the screen - so for video number one that is exactly what I filmed. I hope you like it, I am unsure whether I will do any more as of yet but I guess I will see what the reaction is and go from there.
