Today I’m going to tell you about someone. You don’t know her, and I know her both very well and not at all. The not at all part is because she doesn’t exist. She is the person I always wanted to be, and the person I thought that I would be able to become, at… Continue reading Letting go of the girl I’ll never be
The internet, the office, the streets and who knows what else are rather awash with discussion at the moment on the big January tradition; New Years Resolutions. Half of what I’ve heard is ‘this year I’m going to change this’ or ‘my resolution is to…’ and half of it is ‘no new years resolutions plz’… Continue reading A chat about balance in our approach to New Years Resolutions
Happy New Year, you beautiful things! I hope your NYEs were fun/mad/cosy/quiet/whatever you wanted them to be. Mine was spent on the sofa for the first time in maybe 15 years and I absolutely loved it, so I guess I’m a) an adult and b) really boring now. We’ll talk new years resolutions, intentions, goals… Continue reading Hello 2018 | 18 things to remember this year
So, here we are. The last day of 2017. The year seems to have passed in a bit of a blur really, but as it's drawn to a close, I've done my fair share of reflecting on the last 12 months (how many times have you read a phrase similar to that recently?). I've just… Continue reading Goodbye to 2017
The presents are wrapped, the food shop is done, the flat is tidy and looking magical… Lol jk. The build up to Christmas has been something of a stressful one, as it’s been my busiest time at work in a long time, which coupled with Christmas events and multiple weekends away in a row has… Continue reading Signing off for Christmas (to the tune of Driving Home for Christmas…)
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Thomas Sabo Just in case you hadn’t seen enough wreath adorned doors, artfully arranged tinsel flatlays and gloved hands clutching mulled wine cups (guilty as charged) while browsing Instagram lately, allow me to inform you of something; it’s nearly Christmas. Christmas is about many things – gift-giving, parsnip-eating, mulled wine drinking and trying to win… Continue reading On togetherness
Something I really love about Christmas is our focus on the senses. It always seems to me that more now than any other time of year, we're hyper aware and appreciative of them; the smell of cinnamon or orange or roasting potatoes, the rich tastes, the comforting feel of a soft jumper, the twinkling lights...December… Continue reading A festive night in
One of my biggest fears, and in many ways biggest obsessions, is wasting time. Wasting anything in general actually doesn’t sit well with me at all – it’s what has me eating absolutely everything on my plate because err you what mate I am not putting good food in the bin – but precious minutes… Continue reading Time to start not-so-wasting time
Here is a list of things I have done rather than start this blog post, which was the one thing I really wanted to do this evening: Applied some unnecessary lotions and potions to my face Edited some photos Left what can only be described as ‘fuckloads’ of comments on you lovely people’s Instagram photos… Continue reading This is why perfectionism is productivity’s worst enemy
In recent weeks I’ve been thinking a lot about the way that creativity and inspiration come – and go - in waves. I suppose in some ways, this has been on my mind because I’m going through quite a busy period; I’ve lacked the headspace for anything other than the most mediocre of posts on… Continue reading The ebb and flow of creativity
