All About My Photos Q&A

I didn't go out of my way to ask all of you what you want to know, just because I didn't think many people would be interested (if you want to know something then let me know and I'll include it in this post). However, I get asked many questions in regards to my photos; how I edit them, what tools I use to edit them, questions regarding my Instagram photos, etc. So here I am answering them all in one post for once and for all - I'm pretty sure I've answered the question what editing tools I use to create my photos at least 20-30 times.

5 Lifestyle Changes I NEED To Make This Year

Some things in my life, and maybe yours too, are not how I want them to be and they need to be changed and thrown in the bin never to come back again. I want some major lifestyle changes this year and to go back to my healthier and happier self.

February Round Up & March Goals

So that was a pretty crazy start to welcome the new season, right?! It's funny how this country reacts to a storm like storm Emma, some places it's understandable but others it's a little bit of an overreaction. Although it is amazing that yesterday it was -1 degree and we were wrapped up in our gloves and scarves, and today it's nearly 10 degrees and I'm wearing just a light jumper. Does that mean spring is around the corner? I am so ready for spring, warmer weather, less layering up and the pretty nature (especially all the bluebells!!)

Self-Care Blog Posts You NEED To Be Reading

Lately I've been on a blog post marathon, reading so many different posts from some of my favourite bloggers, many of which I have been following for a few years now. And you know what I thought? Why not share some of these incredible reads in a blog post because they're what I think everyone needs to have a read of.

January Round Up & February Goals

Well, January is finally over - dragged on a bit didn't it? It felt like it lasted for months and months. If each month will be as slow as January then we're in for a long ride this year.

6 Habits Every Blogger Should Adopt in 2018

I have been wanting to make a post like this for a while and since it's a new year what better time to start putting a few of these into place.
Us bloggers are guilty of missing a few things out, comparing our success to others and complaining about many factors in this industry. It is a tough industry to be a part of but there are a few ways around it and they are a lot more simple than you think. There have been so many posts lately about the blogging drama that has been happening and the best thing I choose to do is ignore all the hate because it will only cause myself to get angry and I feel I could end up falling out of love with blogging if I keep letting it mess with my head. I admire all of those bloggers speaking out about issues and the determination they have to fight against those who don't quite agree with the blogging industry and I back them 100%.

The Future of this Blog

Isn't a tradition for every blogger to have a massive change to their blog at some point along the road?  I'm really hoping 2018 will be that year I make that big change and properly sort my blog out to the way I have always imagined it. This change may be to the content, a different photo theme, blog layout or template etc. Here are a few goals/things I'd love to do in the first half of this year to my blog - it's about time I make a change I think!

6 Things I'm Already Loving in 2018

I've started this year in a positive way already so I'm hopeful that this year will be soooo much better than 2017. 2017 wasn't the best year for me, even though I did travel to some pretty amazing places, meet lovely people and live in China for a year, there were some hiccups along the way which I'd love to move on from and forget. I want a big change in 2018 and there's already a few little changes/additions that have left me feeling happy.

4 Skills You Develop as a Blogger

Blogging can come across as quite a straight forward job; you write about something of your interest, take photos and then publish - if only if was that simple. So much goes into a single blog post but you don't necessarily see behind the scenes. You're constantly having to come up with fresh content, create and edit photographs, newsletters and emails, staying connected with the online world through various social medias; it really is a lot of work which people don't tend to realise. Through doing this all you gain numerous skills and develop these as your blog grows.

Luxury Christmas Gift Guide 2017

Whether you have a lot of people to buy for, or just a couple, it can be quite a hectic time to try and think of various presents to suit peoples needs, why do we put ourselves through so much stress? There are so many shops online and on the high street to find a range of gifts, from days out to luxury items for the home or to fit a person's hobby. I have put together a luxury gift guide for women, with some bits for men too, and an affordable gift guide (coming soon after this one) to fit everyone's budgets. People may prefer to buy a few smaller gifts than one big gift, so the affordable gift guide may come a little more useful to you. Obviously I have only selected a few bits and bobs from some categories but I thought there was a little something for all women in this, including a few personal favourites.

My Christmas Essentials & House Decorations

'TIS THE SEASON TO BE JOLLY FALALALALALALALALA! 
IT'S CHRISTMASSSSSS! 
Oh my favourite time of year is here and it's finally starting to look like Christmas in the house, as well as outside...it's snowed?! In fact, we have had hardly any snow but about 10 minutes away it was like snow had exploded everywhere - it was very weird and I swear we're one of the only towns who didn't have proper snow, you know where it actually stays for more than 10 minutes!!

Apps I'm Loving Right Now and You Should Be Too!

There are new apps always being discovered, allowing us to use them to boost our blogging game, promote our content and improving our styles. I haven't had any new discoveries lately and some of the apps below are very old - let's be honest who hasn't heard of Instagram? However, I wanted to go into detail as to why I am loving these apps right now and how they're upping their game. Some of these apps I have heard of from other bloggers and don't regret downloading them at all. They are all so helpful and love playing around with the different features. So what apps am I talking about?

December Goals

Hello all, it's been a while but I'm back and ready to get things going again on here. A break is always needed when you're having a bit of a hard time and no need to feel pressured to get back to it until you're 100% positive you're ready. It's taken me a few weeks to properly feel like I'm getting back on track and can sit down again and write away. Although saying that, I only have about 4 or 5 ideas for blog posts so it's going well.

Winter Clothing Faves

Winter is the time of year it gets colder, the sun sets earlier, we have frosty and foggy mornings, and hints of christmas start creeping up on us. I have a love hate relationship with winter; I love it because I can wrap up in hundreds of layers and stay all cosy and snug, and I hate it as I'm not the biggest fan of the cold. It's harder to get out of bed in the morning, getting into a freezing car and waiting for it to heat up seems like a lifetime goes by, and icy roads and paths scare the living crap out of me - it always seems to take me down at some point.

Red is the New Black

It's winter time and finally getting cold! I'm not a massive fan of the coldness but I enjoy wrapping up in lots of layers and going on winter walks. You can never have too many winter clothes; oversized jumpers, thick socks, big soft scarfs, winter coats - it was time to do some shopping (wow, what a change for me - not!)

My Morning Beauty Essentials

I have a few morning beauty essentials, a.k.a products which help me look awake and ready for the day. Without these I would look like a ghost, smell a little on the gross side, and have skin as dry as a desert. I use all of these more or less everyday, unless I've run out *cry* or I'm trying out a similar product. I say everyday but it's only started since I've been back at university. You know how it is; you move somewhere new and buy everything new, discovering some new favourites and finding some steals from home.

All Things Autumn

Autumn's here! Although it hasn't been a great start to the new season for me, I'm still feeling those autumn vibes. Green leaves turning to that striking orange/gold colour, the weather becoming cold enough to wrap yourself up in lots of layers, and cosy nights in with the heating on and a hot beverage kept by your side.
