Now I’ve been blogging for a whole year (well a year tomorrow but I’m impatient), I thought I’d host a bit of a giveaway to say thank you for supporting me and reading my blog đ â„
Working With Brands And PR Companies
I’ve been lucky enough to work on a few different collaboration projects now but I was terrified at the beginning that I’d do something wrong or there’d be some miscommunication somewhere. I’ve chatted to quite a few of you who want to work with brands but don’t really know where to start, so thought I’d write a quick guide. This is by no means the right or only way, but this is what I do. (This is just a guide for blog posts in exchange for product reviews as opposed to a sponsored post.)
The Maker Club Pop Up Event
Saturday was pretty awesome to be honest; I met up with Tania, one of my lovely blogger friends and we hung out all afternoon. We popped into Boots and I resisted buying the new Maybelline contour stick and then went up to Debenhams because her friend heard a rumour that there was a Too Faced counter. The rumours were absolutely true and we met such a lovely lady who colour matched me for their foundation (but it was out of stock, boooo) and let us smell the Peach palette!! It really does smell like peaches đ
We then popped down to 114 Church St, the pop up event space to meet Chloe. She owns CloClothes and  was there as part of The Maker Club. All the clothing is handmade by her and just looks incredible.
We Are Thirty Plus Blog Awards
As I’m sitting here writing this post, I still find it a little unbelievable. Last week I found out I’d been shortlisted for the Social Media Hero Award in the We Are Thirty Plus Blog Awards.
My Week in Snaphots | June 2016
It’s been pretty amazing to be honest. I don’t usually do posts like these as nothing ever really happens much, but as I packed quite a bit in last week, I thought I’d share what I got up to!
5 Reasons I Won’t Follow You On Instagram
Following on from one of my most popular posts so far (5 reasons I won’t follow you on Twitter), I thought I’d share my list of reasons I won’t be following you on Instagram!
5 Reasons I Won’t Follow You on Twitter
I can’t believe how my little profile has built up over the last 8 months! I now have over 2,000 followers which is a little bit insane when I stop to think about it, so honestly I try not to. I really love finding new people to follow and talk to; but here are 5 reasons why I’m not going to being following you on Twitter.
The Brighton Blog Meet
So if you read my post on Friday last week, you’ll know I was about to go my very first blogging event, the Brighton Blog Meet. It was held on Saturday 19th March at The Globe, Middle Street.
My Blogging Set-Up
I’m always really intrigued to see other bloggers set-ups, and when I say really intrigued, what I actually mean is that I’m a teeny tiny bit jealous of all the bloggers who have gorgeous offices with lovely big desks and inspirational quotes and artwork on the walls and beautiful shelves with copper terrariums and cute little plants everywhere. Okay, I might be very jealous, but maybe one day when we actually finish the house *HINT* I can have my own room or at least a bit of space in a room đ
The Blogger Meet Up Checklist
I’m so excited because tomorrow will be my first ever blogger meet up and I honestly can’t wait. I’m going to the Brighton Blog Meet, which is being hosted by the amazing Laura (Lola and Behold) and I’m going to finally get to meet some of the incredible women who I’ve admired since I started blogging last August.
