annie is one of my best friends. her blog is full of beautiful people and other bits and bobs. she posts some great music too. i love her to pieces.

heather is just all kinds of wow. she likes the right music, the right tv programmes and supports the right causes. and she’s nice. she remade but she’s never ever going to do that again i hope. she also has lots of girl crushes so her blog is also full of lovely ladies.

barnacled-warship

jes is just brilliant. she has impeccable taste in music, as you can tell from her johnny flynn url. her blog is full of flo, marina, cats and doctor who, amongst other things. her cat is also called marina so, yeah, awesome points.

birdcagesfromitaly

simon is a very talented writer whose blog is full of his own work, along with plenty of florence and the machine. he also introduced me to some gorgeous kate nash songs, which i am incredibly grateful for!

bloomsconfetticolorfields

natalie’s blog is full of ridiculous amounts of pretty. as well as being a fan of florence, lykke li, adele and lady gaga, she also posts a fair amount of glee.

covermebad

a blog i co-run that posts covers of other artists songs. if you like covers, or indeed music, it’s worth checking out.

fickleheartwoozyeyes

kirstie has perfect music taste and is perfect just generally and this sort of makes me hate her a bit but i can’t hate her because she’s also nice. you should follow her.

heavyinyourarms

how could marta not be on the list when she is one of the reasons i joined tumblr? a massive flow and a diamond to boot, i adore all the music marta listens to and posts about. this a blog you won’t regret following.

imperfecthope

tess’s blog is like a cross between an art student’s little black book and a copy of vogue. this is my go-to for gorgeous fashion and photography. that’s not all though; tess also posts brilliant music and is a lovely person to chat to.

kristen provides a decent chunk of my dash’s quota of pretty folk musicians. laura marling is one you’ll find here, along with arcade fire members various, amongst others. also a big harry potter fan, i love basically everything kristen posts and if i go into any more detail we’ll be here a long while!

lunalovesgood

kit was one of my first tumblr friends. she has good taste in absolutely everything and i sort of want to be her when i grow up. i never need to browse clothes websites any more, kit posts all the highlights on her blog, along with plenty of other beautiful photographs and artwork, some of which is her own.

marziiporn

i originally followed marley because of her amazing florence and gaga drawings, but now she mainly draws the actresses from glee. i have absolutely no problem with this. her art is pretty much photo real and she can draw with anything from highlighters to wax crayons.

moomin-troll

kitty’s blog is like an aladdin’s cave full of funny comments, pretty pictures and plenty of stuff that’s just downright hilarious. i guarantee this blog will never bore you nor fail to amuse and entertain.

narniaandbeyond

my arty farty blog. i feel too pretentious calling it a travel blog. it’s photographs and journal entries. hopefully you’ll like it.

parlerfrancaisx

one of my absolute favourite blogs, i could spend days scrolling back through the posts. there are plenty of photographs of my favourite musicians, but also lots of other beautiful things too, as well as images of text to inspire and amuse.

prettybabies

angelica’s about me says that she only cares about ‘music, guacamole and nail polish’. this is a good thing. though low on the guacamole front, her blog certainly does have a lot of fantastic music on it. as for the nail polish, that remains to be seen.

spacephantom

louie not only manages the impressive feat of having four simultaneous vowels in his name, he is also one of the nicest people i have met on tumblr. the posts of his i enjoy the most are little anecdotes about his life. somehow even the smallest thing seems entertaining when he writes about it.

the-soup-dragon

i love louise. her only dubious factor is her love of taylor swift. though, slowly and surely, through the help of lovely mixtapes she sends me, she is bringing me round. her blog and her personality are things of beauty. i don’t think there is a single fandom louise is part of that i do not also adore. doctor who and harry potter are the main ones, but that’s by no means all. she listens to some absolutely brilliant music (taylor swift’s place in this bracket can remain under discussion) - i first followed her because her url used to be a marina lyric.

thebeachcomberswindowsill

the stornoway url got an instant follow but gabrielle also boasts amazing hair to go along with her brilliant music taste. she posts plenty of comedy tv and harry potter and her blog is one of my absolute favourites.

thefearisfallingaway

sherlock, doctor who, inbetweeners and outnumbered are just a few of the brilliant things danielle posts. i could scroll back through her blog for weeks.

thisdoesnotsuck

one of my biggest drawing crushes. i doubt you didn’t see her adele drawing on your dash at some point. some of the best glee fanart i’ve ever seen gets posted here, by one of the nicest people to ever be at all tumblr famous.

three-by-fives

if you want photography, glee, starkid, and darren criss in particular, this is a blog you should be following. rachel is currently doing a 365 day photo challenge, the products of which she posts here, on her personal blog. i also recommend her photography blog, from another angle, though this is currently inactive.

undiscernable

katy’s lovely black and white fashion blog with occasional jhutch, damien mcginty, fassy and james mcavoy. i once asked her if blogging only in black and white made her sad. she said no it makes her awesome. i’ll let you decide for yourself.
