hello my lovelies, guess what? today is my birthday!
so as a birthday treat to myself, i thought i’d allow myself to take a breath, step back out of the spotlight, and turn it on you guys instead!
i want to know who you are! it’s so strange and humbling that so many people stop by my blog every now and then, and that you leave me such sweet comments, encouraging me to keep at it.
i would really love it if you would take just a few moments to tell me about you. anything you like really, just a little snippet of information about your world, so we can make a connection. whereabouts in the world are you? what song are you listening to on repeat right now? what’s rocking your world?
p.s. my song of the moment is ellie goulding’s starry-eyed, it is just so magical!
Me?
Well, I’m an ex-biochemist, professional wedding photographer, who has just bought my first house.
You’re kidding!? It’s mine too! Happy birthday fellow 1st Feb;)
omg! happy, happy birthday janine! us feb 1st gals are special! xx
A London based make up artist, shopper, blogger, graphic designer, dancer, baker, dreamer & procrastinator…
…and another of the world’s many Kates!
Happy Birthday!! Hope you have a great day. x
Kate is great!
and that rhymes which makes it doubly special!
are you a Katherine or just a plain great Kate? I’m a Katherine officially but have never been called that, my parents just wanted to call me Katie when I was little and figured when I was grown-up I’d want to be Katherine. But no, as we’ve established Kate is Great! xx
Just like you, Katherine on paper, Kate in real life. My folks had the same plan, did they honestly think they were going to raise someone that stuffy that I would insist on being called Katherine!? What nonsense, Kate’s rule!
Happy Birthday!
And… I’m a fashion stylist, working for lots of lovely magazines and labels. I live in N1 with my husband, my magazines and his vinyl. When I’m not working I can’t stop myself thinking about food and cooking… I want a cat. Enough?
Have a wonderful day! x
Congratulations! Have agreat day and don’t forget class later today :)!
Happy birthday!
It’s my birthday on Friday….we we’re birthday week twins! :)
hehe, february rocks! happy birthday for Friday dear xx
i’m a new reader! found you recently through another blog (but of course i can’t remember which). i’m also a fellow blogger (beauty is my game) based in washington, dc. hope you have a great birthday!
I am an environmental consultant who is madly in love with vintage cameras and inspiring art. I grew up in Puerto Rico, moved to California 7 years ago, and because I can never be away from the ocean, I live in Newport Beach… and, I love love birthdays, so have a great one!!!
Happy Birthday, from a Girl in California. Have a wonderful Day. I like your pictures.
Happy Birthday!
I love birthdays and I love giving back… And since I’m still celebrating my 51-and-how-the-heck-did-I-get-here birthday, please allow me to send you (and all who read this) a birthday gift; the gift is the link to a free cover-to-cover read of my book.
It’s the story of my amazing Spirit-led journey that began on the birthday that all of my friends forgot! (One of my best birthdays yet!)
Just sign up here: no experts needed dot com. No strings/spam attached, really! (I know, hard to believe these days :-)
It’s simply my way of giving back.
Continue the celebration,

Have a wonderful birthday! My gift to you is my very first comment on a blog EVER. Hooray! Me = magazine addict + Belgian girl + scandinavian design lover + a bit too organized + fan of your amazing blog and photos!
thank you so much Christine, that is an amazing gift! and hopefully you’ll pop back here and comment again sometime soon? it makes me grin from ear-to-ear to recieve such lovely words. xx
Happy Birthday! I’m a stay at home mom/interior designer/artist/organic skin care maker and a new blogger! I am loving the blog-o-sphere and your blogs is one of my favs. So inspiring. Hope you have a great day!! Oh and I’m in Portland, OR.
Me too, I’m a new reader, but I think I might be interesting for u to know where I live. I’m from Latvia, and that means that u can surly say that u have at least one reader from Baltic states. :)
My song of the moment is Oldelaf Et Monsieur D – Le Café
yay! my first (that i know of..) Baltic reader! It’s so fun to find out where you guys are from. I tried adding google analytics to my blog to find out where in the world my readers are but it didn’t work. So it’s so great to hear from you! xx
I am a jeweller, a Melbourne girl, heading back to uni for Fine Art this year.. very excited… AND… another Kate… a KATHRYN, but was called a Katie when I was younger and now always a Kate :)
happy birthday!!
yet more proof that Kate’s are great! xx
Happy Birthday! My name is Chaucee and I’m a college student living on the east coast. I love the color yellow and thing owls are just the cutest :P I have an etsy shop (taylorhouse.etsy.com) and blog about my life at lahmode.wordpress.com I also just started a new blog called The Searched and Found where I blog only about the great finds and great stores on etsy that I come across every day. I love spending time reading blogs but also love to hang out with my friends and read.

Happy Birthday! I am a mom, a photographer, addicted blogger, and wanna-be interior designer! Thanks for the inspiration from your blog!
I’m one of apparently many Katie-officially-Katherines who read your blog. I’ve just started a new job in Internet Marketing but I did a degree in Fine Art (causing awkward “you’re doing What now?” moments when I bump into artists from uni) Hope you had a great birthday!
Happy belated birthday!
My name is Maartje, from the Netherlands, I’m a librarian, blogger and also in the BYW class! Lately I’ve been listening to the ‘Where the wild things are’ soundtrack a lot and right now I wish there were 48 hours in a day. Oh and I love your blog :)
