About Me and the Get To Know Me Tag

Hello lovelies, since I have finally updated and given my blog a refresh so, I thought I would write a little bit about me for new and old followers to find out more about me!

If you haven't already guessed from the name of my blog, my name is Katie, I am 22 years old, from Greater Manchester and graduated from University in July with a degree in Illustration*. I love all things Sixities; especially the fashion (oh hello mini skirts and colourful patterns), music and interior design. I spend the majority of my time drawing and spending time with my lovely boyfriend and my family.


*basically creating images to decorate or help clarify & explain something may it be in magazines, books, animations and online.

So, let's crack on with the Get To Know Me Tag questions

It has to be whatoliviadid her content is always perfect; her style of writing and the photographs her and her boyfriend Joe create are always amazing!
