Rose: September 2013
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 9 September 2013. The first day of Autumn: Back to school? I woke up at 5.30am this morning, I could hear rain hitting the windows and it was the light from street lamps, not the first morning sun, that was breaking through the shutters. As I crept along the floorboards, my arms around me for warmth, I realised I had woken up in Autumn. Goodbye Summer and hello Autumn. With a spritz of scent and a gloss of the lips, here I go. Picture taken at End of the Road Festival in Dorset. I will always do ...

Rose: Calvary
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2014/07/calvary.html
Thursday, 10 July 2014. There’s a second before a stranger speaks to you when you know what's going to happen. I saw her from a distance, it was a Saturday evening- it was dusk, the air was close and it was about to rain. I was walking from the bus stop, the end of the route, to my house. I was content and apparently to the observer lost in my thoughts and the (loud) music in my headphones. People say I look friendly, maybe that could be why or possibly I had something on my face? I tried to walk on but ...

Rose: June 2013
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 4 June 2013. Irish Moss scented candle from Bog Standard. I have been burning this Irish Moss candle. From bog standard in our flat since early January, when the nights were dark and there was snow on the ground. Now that Summer is looking like it might be here and the candle is just about finishing I wanted to write about the scent while it was still strong in my mind. If I could wear a scent of this I would- and I'd keep smelling my arm constantly. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Tumbling photos- ...

Rose: February 2013

Thursday, 28 February 2013. The doing wish list. I have a friend who is going to become an expat in March- leaving us in London behind for a sunnier climate and hopefully a sunshine filled work and private life. She recently posted on the social network that I wish I wasn't on but still am (! As an aside don't get me started on the non London things I haven't done! Tuesday, 12 February 2013. In my eyes she is going through a particularly fabulous phase- Nigellissima. Anyway the whole point of this post i...

Rose: December 2013
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 3 December 2013. If November is all about the Christmas magazines then December is all about Christmas books. For the last two years I've listened to the audio book of Miracle Regent Street. Around this time of year to get me in the mood for all things that are festive and London. Miracle on Regent Street is a great book though and I did read it as a book first- in the comfort of my bed (and bath! Ali Harris also has a lovely vintage Christmas pinterest board here. Too, if you're feeling pinny.

Rose: November 2013
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Monday, 18 November 2013. Magazine addiction, the Christmas edition. So it has begun. Christmas for me starts at a different time each year and yesterday was the first day I think. There have been whispers. the first looks at decorations, the re watching of the early Harry Potter films (because they are a great transition between Halloween and Christmas- and because I love them, I know I'm in my thirties but well.). Magazines though. I love magazines and Christmas magazines have become a 'thing' most...

Rose: Herringbone
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2014/11/herringbone.html
Sunday, 16 November 2014. This is a picture of my utterly faithful herringbone coat. It is hanging behind my bedroom door but when I finish writing this piece it will be going into a bag of garments for the clothes bank- and I feel a sense of betrayal to it, though I know it's just a coat. Do you think about the t shirt you wore when you kissed a beautiful girl before you put it aside? 18 November 2014 at 14:04. Custom essay writing service. Excellent article.I like the way of writing and presenting ...

Wednesday, 26 November 2014. Love and the kind of woman I dont want to be. I took a train north this week and was sat with an older couple (I much prefer to sit alone of course and work/ feed the social media habit I heard myself denying recently, madly as I do clearly love social media- well mostly, except all the endless cats and Kardashians). How do you spend so long looking and then end up making these conversations the way you spend your life with your spouse. Sunday, 16 November 2014. This is a pic...

Rose: April 2014
http://arosebeyondthethames.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 9 April 2014. Where have I been? The thing about blogging is if you don't do it regularly you start to forget how, or why you do it and what you wanted to say in a post- or overall- seems to slip away more easily. You lose the habit, the routine, perhaps the desire. Blogging has changed since I started. far more of the online world (like the world entire) is about images.Far more blogs are also professional, which is great! Very good writing is harder to find and harder to pull off. I will alw...
