I know it has been a while since I have last posted, which I lay blame to a saddening lack of inspiration on my part. However, I have finally overcome this writers block and have a new post to bring to you this week full of inspiration for all of you bohemian souls.

Sometimes we all need a good quote to help us through the week. I found this on tumblr and wrote it in one of my notebooks ages ago. The things that are on this list are often things we easily forget in day to day life, so I thought I would post this particular quote this week just in case you all needed a little reminder to cut away all the excess unnecessary stress you might be feeling and make room for positive vibes.

John William Waterhouse's art has captivated me for years, and for those seeking the ultimate bohemian inspiration this week - look no further!
His paintings are loaded with mesmerising colourful detail, often depicting gloriously ethereal women with flowers in their hair and dresses draped carelessly across their bodies. Much of his art is inspired by Arthurian legend, Shakespeare, myths from ancient Greece and Rome and Pagan symbolism. All of his work is truly captivating and beautiful and I do hope I get to see a few pieces in the flesh one day.
Below are a few of my favourites by Waterhouse.

Oh Arrow Divine, you do know how to tease!
Waiting for their new SS14/15 collection is almost agonising! I need the quartz and silver arm cuff in this picture in my life and soon!
Arrow Divine are a beautiful jewellery and accessorie brand, procliamed as "an ode to the bohemian surf culture" and that they are! Their quartz crystals, stones, coins, silver, gold and ethnic prints all make me want to run away to the nearest tropical island.
With jewels that evoke such beauty and culture at the same time, it is hard to not want everything in their newest collection dropping in September.
Here is a link to their Instagram so you can all drool along with me over epic photos of their creations in magical exotic backdrops such as Bali.

Being a tea addict like most people here in Britain I can easily drink over six cups of the stuff a day. However drinking the same stuff all of the time can get really boring, So when I was last up my local shopping centre I decided to take a trip to Whittards on a quest to find a new type of tea I would love. This Vannila Chai tea stood out to me, (more than likely because I probably spent most of my student loan on Costa Coffee's chai lattes last year) and it did not take me long to make my decision.
This tea is perfect! It's spicy, creamy taste makes it ideal for the upcoming change of seasons.
I strongly suggest that if you find yourself suffering from a touch of Seasonal Affective Disorder, curled up in bed with a bunch of jumpers, socks and slippers on, feeling down about the cold. rain and wind this Autumn/Winter then you should give this tea a try! I swear it is just like a warm hug in a mug!
If you do not have a Whittards near you then I am sure that your local supermarket stocks something very similar. I know Pukka do teabags of organic vanilla, chai and cinnamon tea and this is a brand that is stocked in most supermarkets
