A Bit On Life

Life can be a really funny thing sometimes. It can be a dark place where everything is confusing and you feel trapped with a millions ways of feeling alone but with no way out. But it can also be something amazing, it's something you create. Life can be wonderful, inspiring, magical even without us being capable of actual magic, it surrounds us everyday.

I have recently had such a wonderful message sent to me saying how I've inspired someone to go out and chase their dream, like I have mine. Without even realising it I have some how managed to help someone find happiness in a new job and comfort in knowing they are capable to go out there and find what they want and deserve. I'm honestly so touched that I can help some of you guys with your ambitions and dreams. Times like this I am so grateful for everything I have been through in my life, even all the dark times that seemed like they would never end, the heart ache, the tearful goodbyes...it had all been part of my journey to where I am now. 

Knowing that as I am, I can influence people to create a life they want makes me so happy I went through it all, and I would do it all over again just to know I am helping people. Life is curious, how things work out, how everything connects in ways you can never imagine. But my only advice is, have faith. Believe in yourself, believe things will improve, believe you can change, believe you can get that promotion, believe you can find a job that is effortless to go to. Have faith in knowing everything will work out no matter what happens. I completely trust in myself to make the right choices, and the rest is a journey you embrace and learn from. This is how I live, I'm grateful for all I am and have, I believe there is always good and most of all, I let things be, trust.  

Thankyou to the beautiful person for you message, it was so much appreciated. Thankyou for your kind words and inspiring this post! Goodluck in all you do, and I hope more of you will let me know if I have helped you in anyway! I would love to hear your stories! 

Room Tour Vlog

So I've FINALLY got around to uploading my Room Tour vlog. Had a few people ask about where I live so thought I'd make a little tour video for you guys to see my little flat and where I live. I bang on a lot about how much I love falmouth so maybe this will help you see why. WATCH IT NOW and remember to like and SUBSCRIBE! 

Hope you enjoy it, if there is a video you want me to make next comment it and I'll try my best to do it for you! HAPPY SUNDAY!

November Festivities

Feeling overly festive for this time of year but the Christmas spirit has very much already taken over. So what better way to fuel the festive cravings than making some mulled wine?

I LOVE mulled wine and mulled cider, it just captures the smells of christmas perfectly. Cinnamon, vanilla, oranges, sugar, star anise, cloves, cranberries and juniper berries are just some of the elements all mixed in to make this batch of mulled wine. Even the colour is festive and with all the bits floating around it you can either filter it or just add it all into your glass and let the flavours spread more.

Taking a little time out to get some christmas wish list inspiration with a glass and my room smells amazing. Can't wait to start posting more festive articles so I can rub a little bit of my  christmas spirit off onto you all. 

Trip to Harrods Heaven

A visit in London wouldn't be complete without a trip to Harrods. It's been years since I have been able to fit in a visit to this amazing place but today I spent a considerable amount of time getting lost and enjoying each floor. Needless to say Disney will always be a fond childhood memory so I simply couldn't resist the Disney Store. Yes, you may all have realised by now I'm just a big kid at heart so lots of giant teddies got my attention. (Even if I got some weird looks from families walking by)

This is such a dangerous place to come when you know there is going to be perfect outfits everywhere you look, new fragrances, sensational food and room after room of heavenly shoes. Thankfully my team were strict on where we could spend time so for me it was a lot easier than if I had taken on this journey alone. 

After a busy few hours in this wonderland packed with everything anyone will ever need in their life, I couldn't leave without getting something to remember it by until next time. So I treated myself to an iconic Harrods Teddy! (Yeah, sad I know but it'll have pride of place on my desk to help me work...that's my excuse anyway)

Summer Evenings

It's here! After lots of teasers and a wonderful mention in an interview with StreetStyleVibes here are my favourite photos of the evening beach shoot. I always feel at home by the sea no matter where it is but Cornwall will always be so special to me; it will always be home. Being able to do shoots in such a special place really makes me realise how lucky I am to have the lifestyle that I do. 

This shoot had perfect evening summer lighting, with the sun creating a sunset glow on all the images which I love as my hair looks so auburn. I love how exotic Cornwall looks, its like the Uks' hidden gem with its own mini climate. Paradise!

Warm air, sun on your skin and a light breeze is the perfect kind of weather and this day was just that; total bliss. They say the best things in life are free, and just going to the beach on a sunny evening soaking up the rays and totally chilling out is definitely one of those things. Summer isn't over yet so get out there and make the most of it!

Beautiful Hydration

If it's one thing I miss most about the beautiful country of Thailand is the detail they put into their drinks. They were always perfectly made, amazing flavours and beautifully presented. 

This was one element that opened my eyes to the world, something so simple as a drink can widen your experiences to the world so quickly. In UK there are places that put the effort in to their presentation more than others, but out in Thailand it is everywhere you go. The effort, the love for their food and drinks, it was wonderfully refreshing. As for the flavours, they were vibrant, exotic and it felt like they awakened my taste buds from the grave. 

Being pretty frightening of trying new foods and flavours for my most of my life is just a distant memory as without trying new things I wouldn't have been able to taste the wonders of Thailand in all its glory. Don't be afraid to try new things, even with experiences, because you could be passing up a chance to try the most wonderful thing in your life.

Drinks:  Mango Mojito, Caramel Iced Coffee, Chocolate, Raspberry and Mango Frappes and Iced Lemon Juice with Orchid Garnish.
