Easter Sunday is usually reserved for leisurely family breakfasts, dippy eggs, bucks fizz & lashings of chocolate.
Not in Ibiza.
This Easter we celebrated with with an all day party at The Blue Marlin (Ibiza's answer to Nikki Beach).
Trays of shots, gallons of wine & some of the best fish I've ever had replaced our usual Easter eggs.
Not a bad trade if you ask me!

| "Thiiiiis big!" |

| Outrageously good octopus carpaccio |
 |
| Burrata Mozzerella |
 |
| Gazpacho & jamon serano |
 |
| Beautifully cooked squid & asparagus |

| Turbot, served simply with olive oil & salt (my favourite) |
We didn't leave until the early hours of Monday morning.
Tipsy, tanned & very happy.
Surely that's what Jesus would have wanted?

You are making me green with envy!! Looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe octopus carpaccio in particular looks delish.

Is that an Atlanta Braves or University of Alabama logo hat I spy in photo 4?
ReplyDeleteIbiza look so much fun! Great photos :)
ReplyDeleteMay I ask what camera and lenses do you use? your photos are great!
ReplyDeleteAhhh just come across your blog, right up my street. I love Ibiza, have been 3 times. Lovely photos, you have a gorgeous group of friends and you are making me want to hop on a plane x
ReplyDeleteWhen are you going on holiday with that Valentine girl?
ReplyDeleteYou two fascinate me.
Soon!
Delete...Although you do sound a little creepy, sorry.
WHERE are those green sandles from?? The ones you are wearing in the pic of you 4 girls? I need them in my life immediately!!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this I am craving a debauched long weekend in Ibiza!!
ReplyDeleteLoving the longarming of the Crystal!
ReplyDeleteWho's the gorgeous tanned blonde friend?? My gosh, she is so HOT!!
ReplyDeleteOh Rose, this looks like the perfect Easter Sunday: sublime weather, gorgeous food and of course the essential vino. Your photographs are beautiful and so smile inducing (especially as I am reading your post in the midst of a thunder storm on the south coast)! Oh, and your dress is so pretty, the blue and white just looks so fresh and lovely together, is it a recent purchase and if so, would you mind sharing where you uncovered it?
ReplyDeleteThank you,
Emily Jayne xx
Where's your boyfriend? Have you fucked him off for someone with even more money?
ReplyDeleteOuch, those are not kind words. We (the readers) are lucky enough to have insight into such an amazing and fabulous life. Don't be so quick to judge. Besides, you're ruining it for the rest of us.
DeleteThank you for sharing Rose! Keep it up :)
x one of your many fans
That's a bit of a fuckwitty comment. Why read her blog if you think that?
DeleteJealous, or just an absolute tosspot, clearly.
have you heard of the "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" rule ? she just puts up photos of whatever takes her fancy like every other blogger. doesn't mean we should actually need to know about her life. if you feel like you do, then maybe you should think about why you read this blog? some of you people online are seriously wierd....
DeleteDisgruntled ex-boyfriend or bitter jealous female? It has to be one of the two because that was far too hateful to be completely random. Her life is extravagant, fun, beautiful and she is one VERY lucky girl but it seems as though she would be the first to admit it. The reason people like her blog is because her life is so extravagant and luxurious gives us a break from our boring normal 9-5 ones.
DeleteThanks guys, anon if you read my blog you'd know I've been single for over a month now.
DeletePlease keep your chippy observations to yourself in future.
You are incredibly bright, beautiful and brilliant. Why didn't it work out with D? Do you think that he's checking up on you? Are you sure it's not happening with the that Jam Jar fellow?
ReplyDeleteYou're very sweet, thankyou.
DeleteIt didn't work out with D, but I don't plan on going into why. He's no longer in my life, so will no longer be a feature on my blog.
No, nothing's happening with Jamjar, even though he's a lovely boy! We're just friends.
xx
Im sure I've seen your dress in Topshop? I look at it the other day, so pretty! If it isnt, there is an almost exact dupe in there :)
ReplyDeleteI'm off to Ibiza in July but you've made me want to go tomorrow!! :( x
I love your bracelets in the first pix !!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Ibixa

Uh oh! Food porn alert!! That octopus carpaccio looks to die for. Looks like you're had an amazing time. Lx
ReplyDeleteJesus definitely wants your for one of his sunbeams.
ReplyDeleteThis just looks perfect! I love your photos, you are incredibly talented! I am so envious, would swap Ibiza for dissertation work if you fancy? xx
ReplyDeleteSorry but do all these anon comments seem a bit middle eastern?
ReplyDeleteWhat? Rosie isnt allowed out of the house without a boyfriend?
Is it unthinkable that she have male friends and be aloud to DRINK & wear bikinis out of the house??
She could be a raging lesbian for all I care, she has a great blog and can choose to date who she wants. If you don't like her now she's single, DONT READ IT!
I for one look forward to the loved up posts she's sure to write when she does fall in love and oooohhh the wedding posts!
But until then, BUTT THE FUCK OUT.
Sheesh.
Imma let you finish, but this is the best comment OF ALL TIME.
DeleteWhile I definitely agree that the mean-spirited comments should not occur, your usage of "middle eastern" as a euphemism for shaming the blogger/being catty is quite offensive. It homogenizes Middle Eastern culture and sheds a light on how troubling and problematic the Western's portrayal of the Middle East is... It is not all acid-throwing and slut-shaming. In fact, much of this occurs in the Western world as well. In fact, it is more insidious and underhanded--which, I can argue, is almost worse. While it's nice that you are defending the blogger and, in general, a woman's right to do whatever the fuck she wants (if this was a guy going out and partying with girls, I highly doubt such catty comments would occur--but such sexual double standards between guys and gals are another matter), you are also acting quite prejudiced and xenophobic in using "middle eastern" as a way to describe a shaming behavior.
DeleteJust a thought.
Thankyou for sticking up for me!
DeleteAlthough I'm not sure middle eastern is quite the right way to put it. Let's just say it's all very 1940s, shall we? x
I think you should date jeffrey.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had an amazing time! x
ReplyDeleteI hate made in chelsea, i dont watch it because they all seem to be retarded.
ReplyDeleteBut honestly if you were on it I would watch every second. Plus then all these weirdos would know about your love life and keep it zipped.
Have you considered letting a camera crew follow you round? You could call it the londoner!
ha! No, I haven't considered it.
DeleteI'm not very good at keeping my opnions to myself so I'm sure it would be a disaster! x
Day three looks amazing! The sun, friends, drink and great looking food.
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you had a lovely break away.

I am Anonymous and I know D, and I know that he does check.
ReplyDeleteI know he does too. Thanks. x
DeleteYou broke his heart by the way.
DeleteAh, I don't think you know D as well as you think you do.
Deletethis makes me miss summer oh-so-much!
ReplyDeletePS: To all the anons, seriously. Who does that? A very bored 16-year old with low self esteem maybe? Show some respect to the person whose blog you're visiting.
Also, the couple with the blond hair look so great together!
ReplyDeleteDon't they?!
DeleteJust too adorable.
Those pictures of the food are going to make me come they look so yummy!
ReplyDeleteLovely Pics. You. Look. Incred.
ReplyDeleteBring on Pimms and more summer escapades!!!

The animation is great!
ReplyDeleteI know somebody else has asked and that you have said in the past that you favour a dslr, but on this occasion you've got a smaller camera, can you divulge what make/model as it takes really great quality pics.
ReplyDeleteWould be eternally grateful!
Its a samsung nx100
DeleteLike a baby DSLR. I think its great because I hate lugging a big SLR around with me. x
What full-sized SLR do you use?
DeleteCx
Ridiculously envious of all the good weather, good food and drink!! I spent my easter sunday feeling sick and guilty after too much chocolate and too much vodka the night before! Lovely dress too, very pretty!

I am most jealous of the sun--how I wish I was somewhere warm instead of in a thunderstorm :)
ReplyDeleteLove your bracelets.
OH MY GOSH, your trip to Ibiza looks and sounds amazing!
ReplyDelete& I love the dancing GIF!
Hi! I know you've mentioned you use the Samsung NX100. I love your pictures, so was wondering thoughts on the NX200? and is the "no flash" thing bother you?? I don't know much about photography and would love a camera just like this to shoot with friends!! Thank you, I value your opinion!
ReplyDeleteI don't really use flash so no it doesn't bother me x
DeleteLove your blog and so pleased you had such a wicked time - you are young get out there and live!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sam! x
DeleteRose these pics are INCREDIBLE! I need to go to this place! x
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteSuper jealous, am heading to Cala Jondal in June but have just had a huge craving to get there sooner thanks to this! I have a sartorial question in reference to one of your friends if you wouldn't mind quizzing her for me - the blonde girl wearing the tan coloured fringed dress, where are her AMAZING sandals from?
Hope you're not feeling the holiday blues too badly x
sandals look like ones from zara, they are on the website!
DeleteAmazing - thanks so much!
DeleteI have been to The Blue Marlin before, not sure if I enjoyed it so much. Yes, the sun was shining and the fizz was flowing but I got an overall sense that the place was quite tacky. Didn't think the food was that great (apart from some grilled gambas!), there was a few unsavoury characters snorting coke on every available flat surface and I thought the beach as ruined with the way the sun loungers were packed in, almost touching. However, where there are friends, there is fun.
ReplyDeleteLoving your sun kissed look and curly tresses..x
Sigh, Ibiza looks so perfect. I love all the sunny weather. I need a weekend escape right now!
ReplyDeleteBurrata Mozzerella .... Amazing!!
ReplyDeleteAll looks fabulous!! way jealous of you working on that tan!!
You look fab! Would you be able to do a post on your exercise regime? I know you've done The Anti Diet but i was wondering if you could go into more detail on how you stay in shape. Im trying to 'tone up' for my holiday this year x
ReplyDeleteI will certainly try! x
DeleteLoving the Topshop dress!!
ReplyDeleteI am OBSESSED with the blonde's tortoise and gold rimmed sunnies...would you happen to know what brand they are?
ReplyDeleteHi!!
ReplyDeleteI read all your posts about Ibiza!!Wonderful!
I'll go there the first weekend of May (thanks to my friend that gave me it for my birthday!!) and I need some advises!
What are the best things to see/do??
Visit my blog if you want!!

You've made me realize there is nothing stopping me from chasing my dreams if I want them, and I can't thank you enough! I am definitely a devoted reader now!
