About Me

I'm Louisa. Welcome to my tiny little piece of the web, where I mostly blog about my life and the things I love, including clothes, baking, and general randomness. I started blogging about my (usually fairly simple: I'm not a very complicated girl!) outfits in March, but the longer I stay in the blogosphere, the more I feel comfortable sharing a wider portion of my life, and not just my clothes.


I was born in England but grew up in Cork, Ireland. I will always have a soft spot for Cork city where I went to college, but after I graduated I decided to move to London. Then, in February this year, I moved to Edinburgh, Scotland, where I live with my lovely boyfriend. I miss my friends and my parents, but I love this new adventure.


I'm a huge fan of silliness,and I'm usually laughing at something or other! Some of the things that I love, in no particular order, are chai tea lattes, cuddles (my boyfriend calls me a cuddle junkie!), red velvet cake (preferably for breakfast!), baking, New York, reading (favourite authors include Alice Hoffman, John Updike and Haruki Murakami), MAC lipsticks, adventures, salted caramel macaroons, lists, Venice, cooking, Covent Garden, dressing up, Gilmore Girls (I've seen every single episode at least three or four times), perfume, Anthropologie, and singing along loudly to music when no-one can hear me.

Welcome to The Heart Beats Faster. Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy your stay! If you have any questions, or just want to say hi, feel free to email me at fernmarshal at gmail dot com.

Me and the boy up a mountain in Edinburgh: he doesn't really like photos :)
