This week's favourites - tumblr edition!

I haven't had enough things to make a favourites post for a while but I was scrolling through my tumblr and I kept finding interesting pictures, quotes and articles that I thought would be fun to share here as a tumblr edition of my favourites for this week! 

1. National Geographic Leopard Seal.


This is honestly so amazing and makes me think of how we see animals and what we really know about other species. It's a short video but it's amazing!

2. Johnson Tsang - Big Fish.


It's a beautiful piece of artwork shown in production piece by piece - it's fascinating and the end result is so beautiful. I love oriental designs and this one has gone a step further by being 3D!

3. The Writer's Kit.


A kit I found on Tumblr that looks completely perfect - I wish I could be given something like that!

4. 1907 French Girl photograph


Paris, at the fin de siècle, taken close to 1907. It was printed in color by a technique involving a composite of black and white emulsion passed through a series of colored filters (red, blue and green).

We always seem to imagine the past in black and white but this photo is amazing and shows the colour an vibrancy of it which gives a whole new dimension to it! 



I found these all really interesting and I hope you guys do too!

New Years Inspiration

This is the first post of the 2014 Blogger Challenge and it's a great topic to start off with! 

Instead of writing new years resolutions on your blog, share a quote or a picture that inspires you and you think will inspire others in the New Year.

I find quotes and pictures that inspire me every day so I thought I'd share a few inspirational things rather than just one!













I hope you all have a fantastic year and some of these quotes inspire you or at least make you smile!

This week's favourites!

I thought that a nice thing to start doing would be a weekly update of things I've been loving over the last 7 days! 

1. This video.

My Mum showed me this on Facebook and I thought it was so odd and hilarious - I laugh every time I see it!


I love doing these types of quizzes for fun because they're nearly always accurate but I love seeing the reasons behind it! I've always been more creative so I'm not surprised at all that I got this result - it's quite ironic that I'm left handed though! 

3. Red Pandas
Surely they must be the cutest, funniest and silliest animals in existence?! Every time I'm not feeling happy, I'll watch this video and it makes me feel 100 times better because it's so damn cute! 

There are so many inspirational quotes on this website, I love to just go through them and read them sometimes, some are pretty great!

This link is great and I love these tips, it made me laugh rather a lot!

Extra non-internet favourites of the week
- Hot Chocolate
- Rimmel Kate Matte Lipstick in 107; I love a good red lipstick and this one is particularly festive! 
- My black beanie hat from New Look; I've worn it three days this week!
- This month's issue of Elle magazine; there's great pieces about shopping the sales and how to style a navy blazer, one of my favourite pieces to wear!
- The Gift by Cecelia Ahern; I started it a couple of days ago and I'm hooked! I love everything she does and can't wait to get my hands on her new book, How to Fall In Love.

Hope you guys enjoyed this, should I do one of these every week? 
Send me links to things to add into next weeks one if you want - either in the comments or via my twitter, @theadorabled0rk!
