Perspective

Never take anything for granted
Take a break
Escape the ordinary
Detox
Listen

Have a voice
Dream of the unimaginable
Treasure the historical
Embrace culture
Be grateful

Think about your place in this world
Mark your place in this world
Make it count.
Shape your own perspective.

18 things to get you going in 2018

Go get them.
2018
1. As with every year we start number one by just reminding you it is perfectly acceptable to book a Summer vacay right now and not feel guilty about it.

2. The Golden Globes made history, the Critics Choice Awards changed the game and the rest of Awards Season is in anticipation. With so many stand out performances and powerful films it is almost impossible to identify our winners, paving the way for another unpredictable awards season.

3. The power of social media has dramatically risen over recent years but 2018 has already proven to be momentous with the #TimesUp campaign. We can only expect this to expand as it provides voices to the globe. This is something we are incredibly grateful for and cannot wait to see the progress it has on the horizon.

4. 2018 marks the Suffragette Century and we can't wait to participate in events celebrating 100 years since the Representation of the People Act. This was the benchmark for change in UK Politics and is the milestone that led to our passionate stance on voter participation today.

5. This years Met Gala theme is, 'Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination': to be held on April 30th. OH, and did I mention Rhianna is hosting?! 

6. Can you believe it has already been four years? This years sees the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea and the Fifa World Cup in Russia.

7. With a royal baby due in April and a royal wedding in May it is another big year for the monarchy we cannot wait! We love all things quintessentially British.

8. Hamilton has finally made it to the West End, a date that has been in our diaries for days, months, years. No exaggeration. 

9. This is our last year to mention Fifty Shades, with the final movie premiering in February. This is one guilty pleasure we can't help but miss already.

10. It is a big year for films with Mary Queen of Scots, Mary Poppins Returns and Oceans 8 paving their way to the big screens. These are just some of the films that have been in the works for quite some time sending our anticipation into overload.

11. Did we ever think we would see the return of 90's mini sunglasses? They are outrageous, and we are already rating them. 

12. After skipping last year due to her show stopping pregnancy Queen B is headlining Coachella. 

13. Visiting the edge of the Earth is now possible. VS angels Josephine Skriver and Jasmine Tookes spent the start of the year hopping around Antartica. This has just made it to the top of every bucket list ever created. 

14. Many of our favourite artists are hitting the road this year with Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar and Ed Sheeran all on tour ... just to name a few.

15. JT takes on the Superbowl (again)

16. Pantones colour of the year; ULTRA VIOLET. 'A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade, PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future' ... and it is completely perfect.

17. It is the year of switching off. Spend your evenings with a book in your hand and your phone locked away. We always talk about doing it but it's now time to place it into practice and stick with it.

18. 2018 is the year of you. There is nothing wrong with evaluating, goal setting and concentrating on your desires. It's time to look after yourself and think about what YOU want to achieve this year. Sarah Knight, author of 'You Do You' and 'The life-changing magic of not giving a f**k', uses her sassy personality to help you out in these two books (that I could not recommend enough!). 
Be selfish, but considerate.
Be bold, but kind.
Strive, but always be grateful.  

Have a wonderful week darlings, we don't do January blues around here.

Travel Bucket List

Everyone loves to jet set right?
Imagine if you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it possibly be?
Maybe you would like to walk the Great Wall of China, dive the Great Barrier Reef of visit the Pyramids? Opportunities are endless.

Here are my dream bucket list destinations, an escape 
                     from the city, a little history and most of all adventure.

Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany
 
Despite living in Germany, one of my favourite countries, for a significant part of my life I never had the chance to visit the stunning Neuschwanstein castle that resides in Bavaria. This exquisite picturesque scene is a fairytale dream that flourishes both in the summer sun and winter cold. Exploring this nineteenth century castle and it's amazing gardens is desirable to anyone who loves adventure and culture. The castle lies within the mountains providing you with a landscape beyond the imagination. Anyone can pretend they are King or Queen for the day.

Blue Lagoon, Iceland        
   
I know what you are thinking Iceland? All cold and little to do? Darlings you couldn't be more wrong. My desire to travel to Iceland was a combination of instagrams, travel reviews and the phenomenal pictures that Earth Pics tweets on a daily basis. Blue Lagoon however is a feature in itself. Amongst the ice and snow lies a geothermal spa situated in a lava field. These gorgeous warm waters are located in Reykjavik and are world re known for their beauty and marvellous capabilities. Not only can you sip cocktails in the middle of a Iceland lagoon but this deliciously warm water is also said to aid those with skin conditions and contribute to the healing process. Most of all you can also see the northern lights in the incredible night skies. A combination of these aspects make this lagoon simply irresistible, don't you agree?

Machu Picchu, Peru
 
I love history and find the discipline of archaeology fascinating. Machu Picchu lies within the Andes mountains. The ruins of this citadel are believed to have once been a Royal Estate that has been subjected to extensive study over the years. This has also included multiple extractions of outstanding artefacts  that range from silver to mummies, from this historical wonder. Now declared one of the new seven wonders of the world and it is easy to see why this place is so wonderful. Not only are the foundations and constructions beautiful but this place, that emerged during the Inca Empire, has so much to offer to knowledge, history and the globe. 

Darlings do any of these appeal to the jet setter in you?
These distinctly contrasting travel destinations differ in climate, location and culture, yet each contain a fascinating history. Whether imagining European royalty, bathing in a freezing climate or trailing glorious ruins, each of these places will fill you with the urge to discover more.
