First run!
Well, I call it a run – I intended for it to be a walk, but felt so good when I was out there that I jogged a fair way too. Which for someone who hasn’t done very much in the way of structured exercise since I stopped riding a couple of years ago, is not bad going!...
Lots of lovely Moleskines
Sadly not mine... But i spent much of yesterday packing 100 of these custom-embossed lovelies into envelopes ready for a promotional mailout... They came in such lovely packages too... I adore brown paper and stamps! And here is the top of the envelope pile... You can...
First day with the tablet
I had hyped this up to so many people for so long that buying it wad a bit like having a first date, only much more expensive if it went wrong! Much to my relief, I think it's going to revolutionise my life just as much as i hoped it would. Squee! Full review when...

Blogging in cowboy boots
On the train last night, wearing cowboy boots, blogging on my laptop while listening to my ancient mp3 player. I’m so not on-trend or cool, and I love being that way 🙂
Why I’m an Unmade Bed – and proud
Having found this article completely by chance (it’s from my pre-regular-blogging days), I thought it was worth sharing. I’m most definitely an Unmade Bed, and all the happier for it. Women, she says, are either Unmade Beds (UBs) or Pristine Pillows (PPs). We all know...
Subscribers – apologies
Just a quick note to anyone who's subscribed either by email or via Google Reader - it appears the title of my blog has vanished and it comes up as 'title unknown'. I am working on fixing this but it may take me a few days to perfect! Lots of apologies...

For going to see Harry Potter this evening! Actually can't wait - and had better arm myself with tissues, lol!
I'm Carla, a quirky thirtysomething with a penchant for unicorns and glitter. I believe in magic and make-believe, and the gorgeous rebellion of making your life absolutely your own. And I'm a proud multipod!
I am a photographer and catalyst for small business owners, and a real life mermaid. I photograph people as they truly are, help women see and step into their brightest and best selves, add a sprinkling of magic to the mundane, and am a happy ambassador for stationery and slow living.
Proud to be both girly and geeky, when I’m not writing, photographing or daydreaming, you can find me dancing burlesque, riding my bicycle Bluebell, growing herbs and collecting typewriters.
