Weekly Update | Blogtober Week 2

Well, my plan for WMHD didn't go ahead. At all. Well, I tell a lie, I did manage to do some housework. But I did end up spending almost the whole day with my friend. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining! I love spending time with her. But it's not how my day was supposed to go. 

World Mental Health Day

It's World Mental Health day today! As someone who does suffer with depression and anxiety, this is an important day for me. I feel like it's giving me permission to just relax, and I love that it's fallen on my day off this year.

Birthday Beau Basket

Boo Baskets are really popular this year! Josh and I were going to do one for each other this year too, but as we both have lots of birthdays and Christmas coming up, we've decided to save money and not do it. However, I have decided to do one for his birthday instead! I'm calling it a Birthday Beau Basket. Which is basically a glorified hamper but with a much cuter name.

My Current Favourite Hair Products for Curls

I am definitely late to the Cantu party bus but I've been using it for 1-2 months now and I'm loving what it's been doing to my hair! My curls are looking and feeling so much more nourished and bouncy since going sulphate-free. Admittedly I still have split ends and a bit of dryness but that's why I've booked in for a hair cut this month, and then hopefully I can keep it looking fresh afterwards!

Weekly Catch Up | Week 1 of Blogtober

The first week of blogtober is officially done! Well okay, technically it's tomorrow but it feels wrong to do a weekly catch up on a Tuesday. To be honest, I'm already running out of post ideas so I'm getting a little bit stressed about it. But it's supposed to be a bit of fun so I'm going to try not to worry about it too much!

An Interview with Charlie | 2024

I interviewed Charlie back in 2021, and I'm so excited to see if his answers have changed! This was originally a blogmas post, so I have changed the last two questions to fit around Halloween instead of Christmas. 

2024 Birthday Wishlist

It's my birthday this month! I'll be 29 (on the 29th!) which is sounding like a very serious age. I'm so not ready. As per tradition, I thought I'd share my wishlist for this year.

Save the Dates & Wedding Invitations for less than £10

Is it time for wedding content? With just seven months to go, I believe it is! I feel like Save the Dates are a very American thing, but it seems to be getting more popular in the UK. I couldn't think of a better way to announce our wedding - especially as we're only having a small one - so Save the Dates it was! We're getting married in May, and many people tend to go on holiday in May, so I wanted to get the word out ASAP but we weren't ready to get the invitations out.

A Week of Decluttering

I've been in a really decluttering mood lately, so I decided to challenge myself to do 30 minutes to an hour of decluttering every day for a week, Monday-Friday in September.

I started on Monday, in my bedroom. I've got plenty to go through. My wardrobe, a box of toiletries, a drawer of toiletries, a random sh*t drawer, my bedside table, and the under-bed storage. Seriously, there's tons. I decided to start with my toiletries drawer. I go in it every day and always struggle to find what I'm actually looking for, so I emptied the entire drawer and started from scratch. 

My October Watchlist

It's officially time to hunker down on the sofa, with a hot drink and a blanket, and watch everything and anything! I've set myself a little watchlist for October, so I'm not looking for something to watch all the time.

October Goals | Chapter 10 of 12

It's officially the best month of the year! My birthday month and Halloween time! I'm absolutely buzzing for October - as I am every year - and can't wait for the spooky times. I'm going to a Halloween event at Dreamland and I can't wait. My costume is ready and I can't wait to party all night.
