The Body & Sound Retreat, Portugal
•
Back in April 2017, my lovely colleague Lizzie asked me to help her out by coming to her Body and Sound Retreat and doing some photography and videography… I, obviously, graciously accepted. I’d never been on a retreat before so wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but everything totally surpassed expectation, which hardly surprised me […]

•
A huge amount of women are currently using the contraceptive pill, so if you’re one of them (or about to be one of them) it would be great if you could give this video a watch… Click on the link below to find out why I made the decision to stop taking the contraceptive pill, […]

My Stance On Cruelty Free Makeup & Animal Testing
•
Nars, who are owned by Shiseido As a lot of you probably already know, I only buy cruelty free beauty products. I do not buy leather/suede either and have been vegetarian since I was 14; animal welfare has always been very important to me. I first went cruelty free with my makeup this March, and […]

Saying Goodbye To 2015
•
2015. I’m a little lost for words, which probably isn’t the best way to be when writing a blog post. In the least cheesy way possible, I feel I’ve grown a lot in the past year. Looking back, I started 2015 as I started 2014 – pretty insecure, feeling a bit lost and unmotivated. I […]

Being Happy
•
When I started the ‘100 Happy Days’ challenge on January 1st, I guess I wasn’t very realistic. Or, maybe I just didn’t properly think about what it means or what it should mean. The official website actually challenges you to ‘be happy for 100 days’, but now I’m over halfway through, I don’t think that’s […]

Flower Pressing

I’m definitely one of those people who find it really hard to say what their hobbies are when put on the spot. I always end up feeling so boring when someone asks me! But one of my favourite hobbies is probably a bit more uncommon than the generic ones people say. I love flower pressing! […]

You Are Braver Than You Believe
•
For my birthday this year, one of the things I asked for was this lovely gold band bracelet from Disney Couture which, for those of you that don’t already know, is Juicy Couture’s Disney range. The bracelet I chose features the quote ‘you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than […]

Photography Final Piece
•
So this week at school we’ve been having our mocks (scary) and I’ve been quite busy so haven’t posted anything for a while… Tomorrow is my photography unit one deadline so I’ve been working on the final piece I have to hand in. The photos aren’t great – they were quite rushed and I didn’t […]

Welcome To 2013
•
So this is basically my positive start to 2013! I thought I’d post about some of the things I want to achieve this year and things I’m excited for. I never ever call them New Year Resolutions because I really don’t believe in that concept; you shouldn’t wait for the New Year to make a […]
