| A Minimalist Life Ahead? | 25/07/17 |

GOOD MORNING YOU GORGEOUS BUNCH! How are we all doing? I hope your week has started smoothly and that you have a lovely day. So today's post is another sort of reflective one that has a dash of a personal touch. I was thinking about how I have changed as a person over the last year alone, and was thinking about what I have done and what I could do, to continue this journey of personal growth. So here's a little post all about that. Enjoy x

Sunglasses: Topshop
Vest Top: Primark
Jeans: ASOS
Sliders: Primark



As a Fashion Blogger, Fashion Marketing Student and all-round Fashion LOVER, it can become almost second nature to collect and hoard clothing. Always scouring the web for new clothes and styling ideas can amount to a whole lotta money and a whole lotta material. 

Aside from clothes, I own very little and I am always clearing out my things so that I have the absolute bare minimum. I hate clutter. However, in terms of my wardrobe I would say it reflects me so inaccurately because I cannot seem to keep things minimal. 

Over the past year or so, I have really grown into myself more, and have a much deeper and stronger bond with my inner being and who I am/want to be. My decisions this year have made me extremely content and the memories I have made will be kept close to my heart for my forever. So, as I am in this deep happiness, I feel as though it is time I start to highlight what is important in my life, and remove what isn't. A hefty wardrobe, draws full of junk, a catastrophe of small pillows... these things are not going to cause me greater happiness. 

Therefore, over the next month or so, I am going to be sorting through my belongings and attempting to lead a more minimalist life. My wardrobe will be the most difficult to obtain, but I feel as though the excess of clothing I own is purely excess and that I do not need to be surrounded my material possession. So, I will hopefully try to share with you when I sort out my wardrobe, and keep you all updated on how I'm doing with living in a more minimalist way.



Sending peace and love x

| First Year Away From Home | 26/09/17 |

So for today's post, I am marking the end of my first year living away from home. It has been a crazy and wonderful first year experiencing the world from my new home away from my family, and I really have enjoyed every minute of it. Therefore, I deemed it was necessary to pop up a blog post so that I can reflect back to this day, and to remember the joyous first year away from home. This time last year... Despite the fact it doesn't even seem like all that long ago I was living back at home, getting my dinner cooked for me and my washing done, I do believe I have learned a great deal in this time. From learning to cook (a bit) to managing my time between social time, uni work and housework, it has all been such a great experience. I have become incredibly independent, and it is something I feel as though I have taken to really well, I love being independent and making my own way around the world. Learning to be brave and manage adult tasks has been interesting, and I ...

| Does The Internet Influence Your Mental Health? | 26/12/17 |

A F T E R N O O N | SHOP MY OUTFIT: | COAT:  New Look | TEE:  Reserved | TROUSERS:  New Look | TRAINERS: H&M  | The internet is such a strange world, and it is in fact its own world - so far from reality yet so close, it redefines society conceptually to be honest. The internet can bring such wonderful things into the world: the announcement of a new baby, an endless supply of fashion inspiration, the top news at the fastest rate, and so many amazing memories and conversations can be shared between the beautiful people on this planet. The internet is an extraordinary place, and even more so as someone who has grown up in this time of technology. I bloody love the internet and all it brings to the world, I honestly think the internet is such a great platform for humanity to connect, share and create. However, I have been wondering my mind recently, quite intently, and have found myself shying away from the internet, and social media platforms. Despi...

| Let Yourself Grow | 14/07/17 |

Morning everyone.  As the summer months are passing us by, I challenge you to stop and think, for almost a mid-year reflection. What have you achieved this year? How many times have you stepped out of your comfort zone and pushed the boundaries? Is there anything you have managed to do this year that you never thought you could?  It is so important for us to occasionally pause from our busy schedules that never naturally give us a breather, and to take an alternative perspective on our every move in order to reflect on whether we are allowing ourselves to grow. To become a better version of ourselves, with more experience, deeper emotions, and fonder memories.  Today, I aspire to use this blog post to share my own reflection, and the way I am truly feeling in the midst of 2017. Having this platform to share my thoughts is becoming such a great ordeal for me, to be able to express myself in a way I wouldn't usually, and to have a sense of purpose to my life that...
