2 Years of Trixybelle & D!
Lets start at the very beginning... almost...! I hope from my duck face and D's lovely pout you can tell that this is after the shots at the bar?! This was the first party we went to as a public couple. I love this photo, number 1 reason, I love this dress a lot and number 2 reason, it reminds me of what it was like before I had D by my side - which in case you're wondering was awful - compared to what our life is like now we have each other. I love looking back at this just loving how far we have come!
New year 2013. Our first new year together. Excuse my ginger hair by the way, i'm not too sure how that happened although I did love it at the time.. Anyway.. I actually didn't realise my tongue was that long either... ANYWAY! - We have developed a tradition of going to our friends for new year and I've got to say it's the best way to spend it. With it being the first new year we spent together it will always hold a special place with me.
A couple of days after new year and it was my 18th. This is my all time favourite picture of me and D. It is the one which I have in my frame by my bed and the one I always use in anything I do about us. Just look how radiant we look?!
Last summer now at a local beer festival near us. It was a glorious day filled with friends, music and lots of cider...! Probably one of my favourite days of last year. Drunk in a field with loads of beer, cider, bitter and good music, what more can you wish for?! All spent with my favourite person by my side, no not you - D!
Excuse the sweatyness, bad quality and half a bra out-ness of this photo! It was taken on a spontaneous night out with my two favourite people - D & my bro. Only 3 of us being out is usually an excuse to not go out but this will go down as one of my favourite nights out of all time. We all get on so well and it was nice not having the drama of other people around - if you guys are both reading, we're doing it again soon right?!
We might have gone back a couple of months here but this is our one year anniversary picture. How cute are we? I can't believe this was a year ago but it has flown by and now we're another year later! I literally can't believe it. Time, if you're listening, I suggest you do some serious slowing down, thanks.
Don't we scrub up well ey? (I know the ginger hair has returned, I can blame the sun for bleaching it this time!) This was D's nephew's christening - the most beautiful baby in all of the world might I just add! Such a lovely day and great to feel so part of D's family, and D looks so handsome how can you not love this piccy?!
This is a serious fast forward now from October 13 to June this year! I was going to add some picky's of Christmas and what not and then I remembered my promise about not showing you every photo of the past 2 years so I thought I would speed things up a little. I'm sure that you can tell from D's top that this was the first England world cup game this year. A major disappointment of a game but still, it was the World cup and we were excited and ended up having a really fun night - so here we are!
So fast forwarding again but I feel that I have probably been soppy enough for one blog post so this is us now. Out 2 year anniversary photo. I feel that the past 2 years have been the best of my life and I just cant wait for more years that we hopefully spend together in the future. Haven't we grown up ey?! I feel like we look totally different from the first picture on this post haha! D just getting more beautiful though!
So that concludes my photo memories. There are so many more that I wanted to post as you can imagine. But like I said, I didn't want to bore you with 2 whole years of my life in one post!
Lets hope this time next year you will see photo memories from our 3rd year together!
Thank you for reading, and I hope you don't mind my soppiness for this one occasion!
Have a lovely weekend my sweeties!

Top 10 Holiday Playlist Hits!
This is such a guilty pleasure of mine, I'm not usually a fan of songs like this one but I love Iggy. I love her style and her confidence to be such a strong female rapper - would you call her a rapper? I don't really know.. But anyway I totally love this song and although it is getting a bit old in the charts now, it is still a worthy place on my top 10 and a great way to get feeling fancy this summer. She's also rather fancy herself...
7. I Got U - Duke Dumont
6. Changes - Faul & Wad Ad vs Pnau
Have I mentioned that I am going away in September this year? Putting together a holiday playlist is one of the best parts of preparing for the wild antics of a girls holiday! This is one that has to go on the playlist. Another song with such a great summer vibe. If you're going on holiday you have to add it to your playlist too! I love the corus especially to this song, even though I have no idea what it actually says, you can just chant along to the chior it's got going on and you're good to go. I can just imagine this coming on being on holiday, I don't know why but I kinda of feel like i'm at a beach party... If it's not on your summer playlist, give it a listen and get adding!
5. Rather Be - Clean Bandit
I'm slightly biased with this song as it's one of mine and D's really gay coupley songs so I automatically love it. However if you're single or you're in a relationship.. you know what it doesn't matter who you are, you should listen to this song. It's such a good feel good, I really feel like if you're feeling slightly down, maybe you're longing for it to be Friday but we're still stuck on Wednesday.. Put this song on and i'm sure you'll be smiling and singing along in no time. Perfect for a feel good No 5!
4. Wasted - Tiesto
If this song doesn't get you in the mood to get your glad rags on and go party, I literally don't know what will. This is such a great song for the summer, might not be such an easy listening song but to get you in the mood for getting your drink on or escaping for that summer holiday, I think it's a must have on your playlist! And after a couple of glasses of wine, who doesn't love singing about being wasted?!
3. I Will Never Let You Down - Rita Ora
2. Waves - Mr Probz
What better way to get prepared for holiday than singing about waves? I love how chilled this song feels when you listen to it, but at the same time there's something about singing about waves that just transports you to being on holiday basking in the sun. It's more of a 'beach time listen' that a 'get your drink on' type of song. But you need those holiday chills as well, even when you're on a girls holiday - believe me! So this has made my number 2 spot purley because I love listening to it, closing my eyes and imagining that I'm on that beach.
This has actually recently hit the number one spot in the UK, knocking our Ella Henderson right off the top! Which in my opinion is a good thing but that's just me! Anyway back to my number 1 which is obviously way better and more official than the UK Top 40...
Not my usual type of easy listening feel good song but never the less this song is worthy of this spot and i'm sure that if you give it a listen you shall agree. Basically the reason that I chose it is the fact that it purely makes me imagine me and my girls at god knows what time in the morning dancing in some strange bar in the middle of Greece not knowing how we even ended up there.. and to be honest I couldn't be more excited for that experience. This is just the type of summer song that I feel NEEDS to be on that playlist of yours, even if you're not going away, get it on when you're getting glamed up for a night out and rest assured that you'll be getting that grove on in no time!

I hope you've enjoyed my top 10 holiday playlist and if you've not heard some of the songs on the list, give them a listen and get them on that playlist - I know that you'll love me for it, well I know that you do already but possibly love me more!
Maybe you have a totally different opinion on what you would have on your holiday playlist? I would love to hear what you think or if you have any suggestions for me to add onto mine - Get in touch!

My Favourite Celeb Couples of 2014 So Far!
So my final favey celeb couple is Beyonce & Jay Z. Could I have done a list of favourite celeb couples without them? Oh god no! They are THE power couple of our whole generation if i'm totally honest and I just don't know what a red carpet would look like without them holding on to each others hands - which I think is adorable that they actually do that... Sometimes I feel so silly when I hold my boyfriends hand but its comforting and just oh so cute in my opinion! This couple is a match made in heaven, you can tell that they adore each other and they are each others best feature, and the best to conclude my favourite celeb couples of the year so far!
Are you obsessed with celebrity gossip? Which celebrity couple are you so obsessed with at the moment? Leave a comment and let me know, we can gossip together!

Thoughts From A Sunday Afternoon - Tips From a Happy Trixybelle!
Well good afternoon you lovely lot! It is a very sunny Sunday afternoon where I am sat writing to you. This is making me feel slightly better about the fact that it's Sunday and I have to go back to wotk tomorrow after a week off doing nothing but watching Gossip Girl - I appreciate your sypathy.
A non related to the post comment - Ok so I was just having a look through google to see if I could find a cool Gossip Girl meme to add to this post only to find out the secret identity of Gossip Girl not reveiled until the very end and i've not even seen all of the episodes yet... what was I thinking?! I'm devastated, I'm just going to go and make some tea and try to erase my memory...
A cup of tea later and I'm back to being excited and happy, memory as much erased as possible...
I do actually have a reason to me writing to you today, it's the fact that I have just had my blog redesigned - thank's for noticing - and also the fact that even though tomorrow is Monday, it's the start of my new job role as Digital Marketing & Social Media apprentice! So my life is totally happy and exciting right now!
With all my new found excitement at the moment, I thought I would share with you my top 3 tips to stay happy (these are the top 3 of trixybelle so not totally serious!)
1. Drinking Tea
I love a good cup of tea - milk 2 sugars please - and I find that what ever the problem or the celebration, a cup of tea always has a worthy part to play. It's just an all round crowd pleaser. I couldn't imagine my life without tea, it's absolutely sunken into my daily routine and if I miss a cup throughout the day, I sure do know about it! If you don't already, I advise introducing tea into your life. This is not me saying become addicted I just mean next time you feel you need to relax, celbrate or just have a good cry - put the kettle on and make a brew, I assure you, you'll just feel good!
2. Get A Cat
So I have posted previously about my love for cats (which you can read here) and as well as them just making a home an all round better place, they manage to make you happy too. As I'm sure any pet will do, I'm just obsessed with cats... Anyway cats seem to have a special way about them which just puts a smile on your face as soon as you see them. Whether they are sat on your bed when you come home from work or they are fussing for attention around you just for some food, what ever it is, it is sure to put a smile on your face and in my opinion, a key to keeping happy! - You could alternatively look at cat videos on the internet... now theres a guarenteed smile if ever you wanted one!
3. Do Some Shopping!
Every girl knows that one of the best ways to cheer herself up is to get some retail theropy. Even when it's just a day when you're feeling quite happy with yourself it's usualy "Hmm, today is a good day, I think i'll do some shopping!"

I usually tend to attempt to buy a whole new wardrobe when I'm feeling good about life and myself, until I realise that I have a limited budget so a whole new wardrobe is slightly out of the question but still, here's to wishful thinking! Whether it's clothes, make-up, jewelry, food literally anything I always like to treat myself to something when I'm in a good mood, I think its esential if i'm honest, us girls all deserve a treat from time to time right?
I hope you feel slightly happier after reading my blog and if not, then try my top 3 tips and i'm sure in no time those Sunday blues will be right out of the window!
If you have some other tips of keeping happy then let me know, I would love to try some new things and share some ideas.
