I’m Chrissie, I’m old enough to remember a ‘peace’ sign is actually the CND logo but young enough to get away with wearing Cat Woman Converse (I’ll still be wearing them when I’m 60 tbh).
In my outfit posts I sometimes have a tough alternative or urban sense of style but I’m surprisingly adorkable, when you get to know me. I also have a growing addiction to Funko Pops! which I have been in denial about, until recently.
‘The Bloke’ aka my partner and myself have lived in the amazing city of Manchester, UK all our lives and love discovering interesting parts of it, which I share on this blog sometimes.
I have food intolerances to gluten & dairy and blog about vegetarian foods but I really enjoy a cheat day sometimes. Basically anything with veggies, carbs and cheese!
I don’t use any beauty or household products that have been tested on bunnies and blog about every cruelty free item I buy; good or bad. You can find more of everything that I like on my Instagram http://instagram.com/vamp_it_up_mcr
It’s been assumed a few times by Dr’s that I have Aspergers and I’m cool with that; it explains a lot, ha! I also have Dyspraxia, Hypermobility/EDS and an Auto-immune disease, which make me easily fatigued and randomly effects my coordination, balance,memory, concentration and memory ;o)
I am also dairy-free and purchase only cruelty-free makeup and beauty products! Thanks for following me. 🙂 I’m excited to read your posts and follow you on your blogging journey!!

Thank you, I’ve never been complimented on my theme before. I was wondering if I should have a logo or something. I find it so easy to live a cruelty free lifestyle that I barley even have to try. With a lot if supermarkets doing own brand stuff cruelty free and shopping online it’s not the same challenge as it was 15 years ago.

Hehe… I may be a wee bit prejudiced because that’s the same theme I use 😉

Nice to meet you! I haven’t been to Manchester since before the peace sign was used. Well, maybe around the same time. Have you shared your pizza recipe somewhere? My pizza is never quite what I’d like it to be.
LikeLike
Haha! Do you come from Up North? A small selection of toppings but a large amount of the one’s you’ve chosen. Bake it in the oven on a pizza tray so the hot air cooks the base and then grill on a low heat so the cheese really melts. I need to put this in a post as I think it would be unfair not to share ^_^

Oh thank you that’s so kind! I’ve never got anything like this before.So am I write in thinking that ‘nominate’ means you have given it to me and now I should nominate (pass it on) to my fave 10 bloggers? Where do I get the questions from? Is the flower the white one this year and not the bright orange one?
Sorry for all the questions hon!

Hi, indeed, you can now nominate your fave 10 bloggers for the Sunshine Award.
You may ask the same 10 questions as on my blog post on this award.
I think some awards have more than one logo. Take the one which you like best 🙂
And you don’t have to hurry. As the award is for helping bloggers, not for hurrying them 🙂
