Photo of the Week: Tiki

The fancy Kanaloa's in London. I'm not quite sure what or when the appeal for Tiki places are - particularly when paired with the festivities of this time of year - but I can't deny that the decoration is pretty.

KISSING MAX HOLDEN has a cover!

The amazing Katy Upperman’s KISSING MAX HOLDEN has a final cover. Look at the prettiness! You can find KISSING MAX HOLDEN in August 2017. 🙂

Guys, Kissing Max Holden has a finalized cover, and I could not love it more!

Let’s talk about the pretty, shall we?

The colors: I liked the grayscale of the winning cover direction, but I LOVE how this new image looks: sharp and crisp, with plenty of contrast. And then there’s the gradient pink of the title; pink is my favorite, and I’m so happy to see it featured on Kissing Max Holden‘s cover. It feels fresh and fun and romantic.

The cover models: I mean, I couldn’t have handpicked a more perfect Jilly and Max. She’s beautiful but approachable, and he’s got dark, wild hair and a jaw that won’t quit. Together? They’re adorable.

The composition: The way he’s coming over the fence for her? Yes. They way she’s touching his face? There’s a history there. The way he’s holding her wrist? Clearly, he wants her. The almost-kiss? Perfect, perfect, perfect.

Also, bonus: My name!…

Photo of the Week: Tuxedo

Glamorous, eh? At my mum's house has arrived a new stray to add to our list of cats we are caring for (separately and when I stay over). And this cat follows the trend of black and whites who hang out with my mother and I. Look at those little buttons eyes and button nose! …

Photo of the WeeK: Alex Vintage

Again, weak on the photo proficiency this week, so instead of a photo by me, have a photo of me, in one of my vintage outfits. I treated myself to an early Christmas present (as I got no vintage pieces for Christmas) of the Bernie Dexter Trixie skirt in Essex Poppy Fields print, plus, I've …

Photo of the Week: Lone Rose

There is one surviving rose left from the dozen my boyfriend gave me two weeks ago. Amusingly enough, a white rose. I have the others, dried, in my room, but this one was too unfurled for me to give up on it yet. Photo taken this morning by the window of my new house's kitchen …

Photo of the Week: Moments

A small flower I was keeping in my room, but, cut from the plant, it was never going to last. Yet, in morning light, as I went to throw it away, I noticed the interplay of colours in the dying carnation. (I know nothing of biology, so I couldn't say what's happening here, but death …

Photo of the Week: Red Foam

I took a lot of spontaneous photos this week, and as such, I had no idea which to display today. I walked around a local park yesterday and starting taking photos of Orienteering posts; I took some more abstract shots of Gormely the Dapper Squirrel; I had some fascinating drinks at a friend's birthday on …

Photo of the Week: Chickeny

I'm very proud of this photo as it came out. I just caught this lovely lady as she looked up, and even the cage-bars don't get in the way of that penetrating glance she gives.

Photo of the Week: Whiteknights in Green

Monday greetings! I hope it's sunny where you are. The middle of England has been brightening up - for however long it will - and these last couple of days have actually been glowing, as such. I have what one might call the luxury of a corner room with a tree in front of most …

Photo of the Week: Demolished

As in: I demolished this chocolate and drambuie tart. Literally, because it was so rich chocolate, and I don't normally have a starter and a dessert. But it was a set three course meal, so why not? *grin* Out of the photos I took for my New Year's dinner, this one was the nicest of the …
