"Don't think or judge, just listen" - Sarah Dessen, Just Listen

Just Listen is a Leeds based lifestyle, fashion, sometimes beauty, frequently cat based, bit-of-everything kind of blog written by me, Rosie B about living the high life (ha) with my Hubby on more of a minimum wage kind of level (for a bit more about me and my beloved, see 'Mr & Mrs'). I'm passionate about affordable fashion, thrifty living and the simple life enjoyed with liberal cups of tea along the way.
