The Importance Of Mental Health Days

I kicked my day off with a bath bomb & a cuppa. I'm currently writing this on split screen with Dear John playing because I fancy a soppy movie this morning. I've usually done a bunch of things in work  by now & I'm waiting on a delivery to keep my busy till lunch. Today however I'm taking a mental health day. I need it & luckily my manager actually cares about his staff to offer me the day off.

OOTD || Faux Playsuit

I remember back when I used to blog outfits I felt so under pressure to only show new items & be current. I always felt I had to be two steps ahead & shoot then post as soon as just incase that item sold out. How silly; now I just blog in my own time with what ever clothes I wear & have at the time. I still shop & I still like to shoot new clothes, but its more for me & less for fashion. If I like an outfit & wanna share it with you who cares when I got the clothes or if there are repeats!!

Travel Lust List || Lifestyle

I'm at that stage of the year when I'm jealous of all those people enjoying their holidays & those travelling. It's super warm in the UK & i'm loving it but it's not killing my travel bug. I've hit a stage of life where I want to let go of the reins & just go exploring. Obviously that's not something you can do on a whim so I have plans in motion for that side of life but I thought I'd share a few places that I would love to visit. 

OOTD || Beach Days

Who else is excited that the sun has finally made an appearance? Apart from the fact I am melting in work & I was burnt to a crisp at download I am enjoying the longer summer days. Not only is the blogger in me excited about the fact I can shoot pretty much all day but in general I just enjoy summer more. How cliche of me!!

Let's Talk Blogging || Blogger Apps

I love reading blogger help posts so I thought I'd share my own mini one!! I'm not planning a series because hey I'm learning here too but why not share a few things I've worked out over the years; starting with my blogger apps. I keep everything really simple because I have limited time to devote on blogging but these apps have helped me along the way. 

The Self Care Overhaul || Beauty

I'm turning 24 this year & even though I may still get ID'd I think it's time to crack down on my self care routine. I am completely rubbish with skin care mainly because I'm lazy & that has to change. Luckily I haven't got the worst skin but I'm not blessed with blemish free skin so it's time to take care of it for once. Plus over the past few weeks I've been purchasing bits & bobs which I thought I'll do a little haul with.  

OOTD || Distressed Knit

I can't be the only blogger who sometimes gets those moments when they feel like they are in full on blog mode? Well this was one of them!! I threw on this outfit from the bits I had packed for a weekend & really loved it but when I went to shoot it, the weather decided to be utterly terrible. From then on I knew which location I wanted & was determined to revisit on my next trip.

5 Reasons Why I blog || Lifestyle

I've been blogging via this page since 2014 which is kind of crazy. Even I didn't realise it's been that long till I did a huge overhaul of my blog. In that time the blogging world has changed a lot & I didn't even enter this world till a lot later. My blogs changed a bunch of times; from my branding, layout to my content & through that time I've learnt a lot. I'm still not an expert & I've got loads to learn but I wanted to share the reasons I've kept blogging so here's a few.
