After a sensational weekend filled with birthdays, engagement parties and long-overdue catch ups with friends I must admit that I’m feeling a little bit tired today and dreading the thought of hearing my alarm go off at 6am tomorrow.

In anticipation of that ‘Icky’ Monday’ feeling I decided to compile a little old school ‘Mixtape’ (can you tell I’m a child of the 80’s?) which should hopefully help turn things around and make me start the week on a happy note. Obviously this mix reflects my personal (and probably somewhat questionable) taste in music but hey, I’m sure I’m not the only one who loves a little bit of Prince and M.I.A in the morning!

Would any of these songs make your Monday morning list? I’d to love to hear of your favourite tracks!
