Music, dancing and bejewelled, beribboned, silk scanties; primarily.
Working hard with beautifully inspiring friends to make delightfully far-fetched, fanciful musings actually happen; secondarily.
Being woken up by the sun streaming through my blinds and basking in the heat, in love with the fact that it marks the start of another delicious London summer; thirdly.
Playing dress up, lounging on sun-warmed grass, swooning in discos, kissing in the street, running around to my new favourite song on repeat, shimmying to French girly pop, scribbling bits of stories in nice notebooks, flipping funny-shaped pancakes, frolicking in very high heels and carousing in nought but lace and pearls upon stacks of kitten-soft creamy white faux fur.
I would buy the real stuff if I could find a kitten big enough.
This last point is extra curricular, you understand:
I don't depend upon it, but it's nice to do on occasion.

Hi there, and thanks for reading this comment!
Our Disco's special guest on 19 October will be WHITEY, an artist long-revered and regularly-played out by And Did We Mention Our Disco?'s resident DJs, who will be presenting his very first 'DJ Live Set': a stripped-down live performance of his tracks interspersed with a dancefloor-friendly DJ mix, blurring the boundaries between a full-on live show and a 'dex-n-fx'-style DJ set.
