January details

January has gone past so quickly and much to everyone's delight the evenings are getting slightly lighter and the weather slightly warmer. I definitely feel ready for spring and summer now. Feel like my skin has not felt the sun's warmth for years.

Just thought i'd share a few photos and instagram captures from the past month. The sketches below are by my very talented little sister. I cannot draw like this at all and am constantly in awe of her! She hasn't picked up her pencils and sketchbook for while and recently got inspired whilst watching Africa. I think you'll all agree she needs to keep at it!

Afternoon tea break in Dulwich Village - beautiful area of South London (feels like the countryside, not London!)
Aled & I have this exact photo (see below!) & it made me really miss Canada, travelling & exploring new places

Snowy view outside our flat window - I LOVE the snow and it was amazing to see central London so white
Loved this sign outside a pub in Shoreditch the other day

Had a pedicure & massage at Cowshed last week (Christmas present from Aled!) & it was pure bliss
Trafalgar Square yesterday - finally some sun! Albeit cloudy too.

I really love the new app Vine at the moment (basically like a moving Instagram!)

Anybody else on Vine?

January playlist

My other half Aled is very passionate about music, namely folk, americana and indie rock. He writes live gig & album reviews, contributes to music sites and also writes his own music blog, The Evening's Empire.

I thought it would be a great idea to do a once a month playlist curated by both of us! I wanted to go for mostly new songs with a few older ones thrown in, and also a mixture of well known and lesser known artists. My music taste is fairly varied and most of my new discoveries come inevitably from him. I realise it's the very end of January, but better late than never! You can listen to the songs below on the Grooveshark player.

I hope you like it!
