Get to know Katie

Hello everyone, it's Katie here and welcome to Pampas and Pearls. 

This Birmingham based blog is my escape from everyday life and something I am highly passionate about. This blog is all things self-care and wellness with hints of anxiety and self confidence adding in on occasion. 

Come and say hi and delve into the world of Pampas and Pearls with us, give us a follow and discover us on social media. 

My favourite things to do consist of reading, writing, photography, coffee and baking. I especially love baking around Christmas and family birthdays. I also love painting my face every morning with various different brands of makeup. 

I enjoy being super cosy and sitting watching my favourite films with a giant ass bowl of popcorn and hot chocolate.

My favourite films are mostly multi-film series The Matrix, Harry Potter, Star Wars and The Princess Diaries!

Doing both a BA and MA in English I have come across a large range of books and genres. Carrie is  a great book to read too if you're looking for a good horror book that isn't too scary, I also love Frankenstein (by Mary Shelley), Tennant of Wildfell Hall (By Anne Bronte) and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (by Robert Louis Stevenson), a lot of classics in there I'm aware. 

What's your favourite thing to read?

I do look at expanding my tastes and over the last couple of years I have developed a love-hate relationship with football...I don't support the typical teams for a Brummie girl but not being raised around football I guess that's to be expected. 

So there you have it,  a little bit about me, if you want to know more check out our links page, welcome to Pampas and Pearls please enjoy your stay :)
