Although we are very nearly into Spring..some of us are still feeling the Winter blues, so here are 3 things that have cheered me up considerably when I've been having a down day.
We all need a bit of self indulgence every now and then, whether it's music or fashion, sport or films...
Whatever you are interested in, take some time this week to enjoy yourself. :)
Of Monsters and Men
These guys are new on
the music scene and I absolutely love their debut album, My Head is an Animal.
Forming in 2010, it
took the Icelandic five piece, whose style is described as indie/pop, nearly 2
years to release their unique folky style to the UK with their first single,
Little Talks in 2012.
The album is
definitely worth a listen, particularly if you are a fan of bands like Mumford
and Sons and Arcade Fire.
Although their music
is of a similar style, Of Monsters and Men are a completely new sound which I
cannot get enough this year!
My favourite tracks
on the album (this week) are Mountain Sound and Dirty Paws.
They have been the soundtrack to my blog writing this week!
Download, buy,
YouTube, spotify, whatever! Just make sure you aren't the last to discover
their fantastic sound!
Herbal/flavoured/fruit
tea
I feel like I might
be a bit behind on this one as everything you read on health or dieting these
days indicates that herbal teas are a must, but better late than never..

They really do work
guys!
Whether it replaces
your daily morning coffee or late night hot chocolate, a cup of herbal tea is
not only better for you, it tastes good too.
From peppermint to
green tea, strawberry flavoured to vanilla, there’s a flavour for everyone!
I love Twinings fresh
and fruity cranberry, raspberry and elderflower.
It’s great in the
mornings with your bowl of cereal and in the winter when you are full of a
cold, it’s a great remedy for clearing your airways.
Twinings are a great
choice but nearly all teabag brands have these flavours as well as supermarket
own brands, so there is no excuse not to make the healthy swap!
Daredevil nail varnish by Topshop
It is unlikely that
I need another reason to adore Topshop, but if I do this nail
colour is it!

It works in winter (I
bought it back in November) and I’m still wearing it now.
The beauty of it is
it’s so versatile.
The sparkly deep red
looks good, no, great with black, cream, grey, gold, brown, orange and just
about every other colour!
It’s perfect for a
night out and a day trip...
It’s so good that my
ultimate style icon, Millie Macintosh was wearing it last month.
So if you haven’t
already dashed out to the shops to buy it, get up and go before it’s too late!
