| 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

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

| The Floral Dress | 17/10/17 |

G O O D  M O R N I N G Morning guys. This post is the final one displaying the photos from my first ever fashion shoot with  Now Photography  so I hope you enjoy as there will be more to come. I truly loved my first ever shoot and so I have decided to continue with this format of blogging. I feel as though I can maintain the personal and intimate side of my blog, while displaying some better quality images that provide a much better representation of the look I aim to achieve, and the details of my styling can be more accurately portrayed.  - OUTFIT - Dress:  ASOS Fishnets:  ASOS Boots:  New Look As you can probably tell, this blog post is entirely central to this gorgeous ASOS number. The floral dress of dreams. Whilst it may not be the simple 'little black dress' that is desirable in everyone's wardrobe, I feel as though this makes me feel just as good. The fit, the pattern, the button detailing and the almighty swish that t

| Festival / Holiday Look No.1 | 20/06/17 |

HELLO HELLO! So this is going to be a little 'saga' of looks I've selected that I think would be super appropriate for your summer holidays, or equally just as good as a festival outfit. I am aiming to make them as realistic as possible, in the sense that each outfit is something that I would actually wear on holiday, and also so that each look is relatively affordable and could incorporate items you already have hidden in your wardrobe, alongside more trend-based pieces. Hopefully, this will be a success and may inspire you while planning your own holiday outfits. I don't know about you guys, but I find it ever so tedious trying to plan holiday outfits, so I feel like this would help me! Lastly, I am going away soon myself, so I am hoping to use these blog posts to document outfit ideas that I will be able to wear myself! ENJOY. - OUTFIT - Top:  Pretty Little Thing Skirt:  ASOS Sunglasses:  Spitfire Earrings:  ASOS Espadrilles:  ASOS

Angel brownies

Morning guys,  So yesterday I decided it would be fun to make some brownies but also adding a Christmas twist! So I whipped out my rose gold Angel cutter that I purchased from Sainsbury's - it's currently in the sale for something crazy like £1 and 'tried' to make some yummy festive treats. ALSO; this is my first baking themed blog post, therefore you have to let me off for poor aesthetics on the presentation front!!  YOU WILL NEED: 100G COCOA 250G BUTTER 500G CASTER SUGAR 4 BEATEN EGGS 100G SELF-RAISING FLOUR OPTIONAL: ICING SUGAR TO DUST So firstly, preheat the oven to 180-160 degrees Celsius and then you need to measure out the cocoa, butter and sugar, and pop them in a large saucepan. Keep the heat on the hob low, it just needs to gently melt the ingredients together. Keep mixing too, or it'll stick to the bottom of the pan which is no good! Then, once mixed together, beat your eggs, and slowly add to the mixture. Only add a little at a time, mix, then add a bit
