11 THINGS ABOUT ME
1) My favorite city in the world is Los Angeles. I used to live there and have never been that inspired by any other city. I miss it dearly and hope to move back to Cali later on in my life.
2) I love Mexican food. Tacos, nachos, quesadillas, guacamole, salsa... loveeeeees.
3) I make the best rice krispy treats.
4) I keep my diet mostly dairy and egg free. Chinese medicine claims that excess animal protein intake makes skin more breakout-prone and allergy-prone, so for health reasons (ahem.. beauty reasons) I stay away from them. I say "mostly" because I do make exceptions that are worth it - eggs at brunch, pizza and the occasional ice cream to name a few ;)
5) I am the least athletic person you'll ever meet.
6) My favorite guilty TV pleasure is "Keeping Up with the Kardashians." Don't judge.
7) I have the biggest sweet tooth. Cupcakes, chocolates, ice cream... once I crave I must have!
8) I am a HUGE fan of "Friends." I've seen every episode at least 5 times if not 10.
9) As my blog name suggests I loveeee brunch. Best meal ever! Scrambled eggs, eggs benedict, orange juice... the idea of a relaxing meal after a morning of sleeping in makes me so happy.
10) I sleep a lot. Everyone around me knows I need my 8 hours of sleep every night... and more if allowed. I once slept through the alarm on a work day, and woke when my manager called me at 11 am. Sooooo embarrassing.
11) I am an avid tea drinker. Japanese green tea is my favorite!

KATHRYN'S 11 QUESTIONS
1) Who is your favourite band/artist? Why?
My current favorites are Switchfoot, Taylor Swift and Jessie J. I know they are pretty different but they all create quality good music with meaningful lyrics.

5) Favourite nail colour?
Oooo this is a tough one. If I had to pick an all time favorite I think it'd have to be Big Apple Red from OPI. Classic red that looks great on fingers and toes.

6) How many pairs of shoes do you own? And which is your
favourite/most worn?
I honestly don't know how many pairs of shoes I own... it's pretty bad! My current favorites are my leopard sandals from Zara, but my most worn are my Tory Burch Riva Flats. They're so worn out they're falling apart now.
7) Have you been or are you going on holiday this year?
Yes I have been! I've mentioned this tons of times on this blog because I miss it too much - I was in London, Paris and Rome for 2 weeks in July. It was my first time ever in Europe and I'm in love with London now.

10) Dresses or jeans?
I'm very much a dress kinda girl. Is it just me or does pulling on a pair of jeans never feel as comfy as a dress?
