What I've Been Wearing In May
May was possibly the dreariest month of the year so far. I was awaiting sunshine with baited breathe so I could sit outside with my lunch and not freeze to death but it just wasn't meant to be. There was a couple of sunny days, but they were few and far between so my outfits have been a little odd.
Introducing The Advertisers #15
Somehow we're now in June, where did May go? Someone, please tell me? It only seems like a few hours ago that I wrote my last advertiser round up, but I've got some more awesome blogs to share with you today.
My Blog Photography Essentials
I seem to be having a little tech takeover this weekend on From Roses. Yesterday I shared my favourite apps and today I'm going to be sharing some of my photography essentials. I'm just going to narrow it down to blog photography otherwise this list could get out of control. By no means am I saying that you need these too, but this is what I like to use for my images.
My All Time Favourite Apps
Over the years, I've become really interested & slightly addicted in tech-based posts, especially on apps. As a self-confessed phone addict, I'm always on the hunt for awesome apps. I like to have a good mix of programmes that can help me with my workday as well as ones that I simply use for pleasure too.
Staple Accessories
I'm not sure I've ever shared my favourite accessories on this little corner of the internet. Truth be told I have very few, but the ones I do have are what I wear religiously. I tend to go for simple delicate pieces over huge statement items as they aren't quite my style. So spanning from sunglasses to tote bags here are my staple accessories.
5 Things To Do When You're Lacking Body Confidence
Hopefully summer is on its way and that only means one thing, bare limbs. I think body confidence is one of those things that we all struggle with from to time. I know it's something that I've battled with for years. This year I want to wear pretty summer dresses and feel awesome in them. So here are a few things to do when you're lacking in body confidence.
Why High End Isn't Always Best
I guess you could say I'm a believer in that you get what you pay for. It's not quite the same story when it comes to my beauty buying habits though; I was highstreet girl up until the age of twenty. Though I had strayed into MAC a few times I would always buy everything in Boots (for the points naturally). It wasn't until I got seriously into beauty and blogs that my eyes were opened to the world of high-end products. There was a consensus that those were better, but it's not always the case.
My Favourite Homeware & Stationery Stores
Nothing makes my heart flutter like new homeware and stationery. I'm often asked where my favourites places are to buy the following so I thought I would share my most loved homeware and stationery jaunts.
Finding Your Own Way, When You Feel Totally Lost
When I wrote my post last week on the things that I was glad that I learned before turning 25 the biggest lesson was that we're all finding our own way in life. I think many of us who are in our twenties can all relate to the quarter life crisis that we all seem to go through at some point. From such a young age, we're all asked what we want to do in life and have our entire life plan figured out and that's just not realistic. We're constantly changing and what I wanted to do when I was 5 years old (vet) is certainly not what I want to be doing now and sometimes being a little bit lost is a good thing.
