What I've Learnt From The Past Year

Hello, I decided to take a little break from blogging over Christmas and New Years and enjoy the time with my family and although I missed writing posts, I'm really glad I took a step back! I thought it was only right to start off the new year by reflecting on the previous one and sharing what 2016 taught me.

Taking Some Time Out

Hello! Last weekend, my boyfriend and I took a trip up to the beautiful Lusty Beg Island for a little getaway and it was the perfect opportunity to take some time out and completely relax.

So You Want To Start A Blog?

Hello! Today I am finally getting round to a post that has been sitting in my drafts for months. The main reason it's taken me so long to publish this post is that I don't feel as if I'm an 'expert blogger' and therefore shouldn't be giving advice on blogging. However, I get asked daily on Snapchat and Facebook about my tips on starting and running a blog, so here they are!

Self Love, The Most Important Kind

Hello! I'm sure you've all heard the phrase "Fake it 'till you make it" in relation to being confident in yourself, right? Today I want to talk about what to do when you 'make it' and why self love never has been and never will be a bad thing.

Why It's Important To Be Alone.

Hello! Today's post is something I've wanted to write for a while, but it's also something I've had trouble finding the right words for. You might read the title and think I'm going to tell you to lock yourself away with no human contact but you're wrong...

Dealing With Anxiety And Panic Attacks

Today I wanted to talk about something that is not often discussed. As you can see from the title of this post, the topic I'm talking about is anxiety and panic attacks.

The Key(s) To Happiness

If you asked a hundred people, 'What is the key to happiness?', you'd probably get a hundred different answers. That's purely down to the fact that each of us is different and have different ways of being happy. Let's face it, there's not one thing in this world that will make you totally happy on its own. There are lots of little factors that combine to bring happiness, such as a sunny day or a hug or catching up with a friend. I haven't always been the most happy person at times, it used to be very hard for me to find even one positive thing in a day. But I've pulled myself out of that and today I wanted to talk about my key(s) to happiness and what I've learnt about happiness over the years.

Why I Don't Like Valentine's Day

Seeing the title you might think, "Oh just another bitter single girl hating on Valentine's Day", but that's where you'd be wrong. I'm in a very happy relationship and yet I still don't like Valentine's Day and here's why:

Actually, I Can

graphic by me

The moment I stopped criticising myself constantly and started to believe I could do the things I'd only ever dreamed of was a huge turning point in my life. I was always the kind of person who would talk myself out of things with all the 'what if's' running around my head. I couldn't even begin to count how many times I doubted myself in a day.

Fifteen Things I'd Tell Fifteen Year Old Me

This year, my younger sister will be turning fifteen and it got me thinking about what I was like at her age. That lead to me thinking about what I'd tell fifteen year old me and subsequently sitting here writing today's post. Of course, I'd never want to go back and change anything as it has all brought me to where I am today but there are a few things I wish I'd known sooner and below are the 'Fifteen Things I'd Tell Fifteen Year Old Me'.

Productivity 101

Procrastination and productivity, two words beginning with the same letter but have very different meanings. I, as I'm sure many of you too, will own up and admit that when I can, I will procrastinate as much as possible. But lately I've been making a real effort to become more productive and today I thought I'd share with you a few tips!

Life After School

Today's post is a little different from my usual fashion and beauty posts, but it's something that has been on my mind lately. Last June, I did my final school exams. Saying (or typing) that feels odd because it honestly feels like a life time ago. Some people have very fond memories of secondary school and while I did have happy times there, it just wasn't for me.

Birthday Musings

Yesterday, the 29th of September was my 19th birthday. It feels odd saying that, 19 sounds so old to me, but then again I can't wait to be 21, strange I know. For this blog post I thought I'd share things I've learnt over the years in my short little life and I hope you enjoy them.
