Just another week #4

Hi everyone, I seem to be starting every weekly post the same at the moment; with I'm sorry. I haven't been able to do any blog posts this week, so I'm so grateful that you have all stuck with me!

I found out this week, that my house is now on the market! Which is scary, but exciting. We've had two house viewing this week, so all my family have been busy cleaning my house top to bottom. 

Here's the 'for sale' sign that is currently outside my house. 

Tuesday was a weird day, I waited for my boyfriend to finish uni, so I spent the time I had, sat in Costa. I had my Macbook on me, so I sat doing uni work with a vanilla latte and a raspberry and white chocolate muffin. I also had bought Bastille's debut album - Bad Blood. Which I highly recommend! 

Then later in the week, I did some visual merchandising in one of my uni classes, which was fun. At one point I had to take off one of my shoes, feel the need to have a tartan scarf and fell out with a necklace (it was too big and annoying to use). I now need to do these photographs properly in a studio to put into my portfolio for my VM unit. 

Here's me with natural hair; wavy. I wish it stayed like this more, as when I woke up in the morning it had just gone poofy! 

Saturday was a nice day, we went into Southampton, to buy Mother's day gifts and then we went into Winchester. We sat by the cathedral where I took this photo, isn't it pretty! My boyfriend gets to graduate in this very building, the lucky sod! 

In the evening we went for dinner, at Chimichanga's, a new restaurant in Eastleigh. It's so good, we had a sharing starter, with breaded Jalapeño's, chicken spring rolls, chicken wings and filled potato skins. Then for my main course, I had a pulled pork burrito with rice and kidney beans, yum yum yum. 

I did have a dessert: mango and passionfruit cheesecake, because I love food! I ate it so quickly though I didn't get a photo of it. 

Which leads me to today! Which was Mother's day. I decided to treat my mum, with a three course meal, including my very first attempt at a Tiramisu! It was surprisingly easy, and very tasty if I do say so myself!

This is my sisters photo (@jordantalulah) of the menu I made up, 'Come Dine with Me' style. 

I hope my mum had a brilliant Mother's Day, here's the lovely lady on her birthday in September. Love you Mum.

Did all your mum's have a good mother's day?

How were your weeks?

The future's bright the furture's TMRW

TMRW is a brand new independent quarterly magazine, aimed at the modern professional, it's packed full of new music and the latest fashion. The first issue looks amazing, with it's modern, minimalistic and fresh look and it feels great too, so what more could you want?

Oh that's it; some great content, including interviews that aren't written in Q&A format, which is a breath of fresh air! Seeing as a lot of the magazines out on the shelves are mostly question and answer based.

Being an independent magazine, they really have helped support other independent companies throughout the pages of the zine. Including UK clothing company hype and premium head wear brand jelly and cream.

The magazine seems to have a great community involved with it, from Joe Brine (@joebrine) the creator of TMRW to the people who write articles for them. Mainly written by aspiring journalists which is great as it gives them a new platform in the difficult journalism world. 

I love the feel of the magazine (I'm all about the haptics!) it has great print quality and the photography looks amazing, and fits in with the look of the magazine. 

Please ignore my weird hand...

This zine has something for everyone, from Caggie Dunlop from Made In Chelsea talking about her new singing career and Oliver Proudlock also from MIC but instead talking about his T-shirt brand Serge De Nimes. This is great because they could have easily gone down the television route, however they decided to take a different angle. This is all in their debut issue, along with some interesting content and no 'horoscope section' in sight! 

(don't get my wrong, I love a good horoscope, but that's what I have company for)

 The second issue includes many things including the indie pop London based band; Bastille along with new clothing brand 'Friend or Faux' and singer from The Voice - Tyler James on the cover.

You can buy it now (HERE) where you can purchase it for £3 which is a great price for a quarterly magazine. 

I really hope TMRW carry on giving a breath of fresh air to the magazine community and have many issues in their repertoire. I can't wait to get my paws on the second issue!
