Pink lady

About Me


Warning...I'm talkative to say the least. I live in Nottingham in a very pink flat (seriously - pink toaster, kettle, cutlery, plates, art, placemats, kitchen knives, tea-towels, cushions, telephone...all pink! ). I moved in nearly a year ago and it's the best thing I've ever done.
I work in advertising by day, freelance music journalism by night which keeps me on my toes but means I've met so many interesting people, so it's all good. Besides all things pink, I have a love of corsetry and retro style. My biggest passion is music, I'm always listening to it, or at the very least I've got something stuck in my head 24/7. Been to thousands of gigs, and interviewed over a hundred different bands and it amazes me most days that I get to do what I do. I've worked hard for it though, but it's proof that it pays off!
I have many amazing friends (I know 90% of people on my friends list, which scares me sometimes!), and they mean the world to me. I always welcome new people though so say hello!
The 1950's fascinate me, and I adore Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn - the glamour and the style appeals to me.
