FEBRUARY | LET'S CATCH UP!

Hey friends!

For the whole week I’ve been racking my brain about what to post and then BAM it came to me. I thought it would be pretty cute to start doing monthly round ups. When I initially started this blog, I wanted it to be more of an open diary. A place where I can express myself and help others in the process.

Although it’s not quite the end of February I thought it would be the ideal time to kick-start it.

The month of “love”?

Seeing as my love life is pretty much non-existent, I really don’t have any cute Valentine’s Day pictures to share with you guys. However, I do have a few LOVEly things to share (see what I did there?). Ok, now you’re probably thinking this is why she’s single lol.

Work, work, work, work, work, work

So yeah, I’m finally working again and it feels so good. Different field but it’s a great company, I have a lovely team and it was the perfect start to the month. I won’t lie though, adjusting back to the 9-5 life has been a little difficult haha.

Losing weight is hard.

I was hoping to tell you guys that I lost 10-20lbs but when I weighed myself on the 9th I had only lost 3 lbs (in three weeks). It made me feel that all my 4AM gym sessions were in vain. Yeah I definitely could’ve been stricter on the diet side of things but your girl really did try. It doesn’t help that since that day I have spiralled out of control. I’ve fully eaten like a complete pig since then and I haven’t stepped one foot in the gym. Pretty sure I’ve put back on the 3lbs and more. Anyways, I follow a lot of fitness pages on instagram and saw a quote that really spoke to me.

“Even if you lose ½ a pound a week, you’ll still lose 26 pounds by this time next year, just keep going”

So here’s to trying again.

Go Joy!

I’ve stuck to my word about writing a blog post every fortnight.

Where my blue peter badge at?

Sorry, Can’t hear you over the volume of my hair!

I saw this wig and instantly fell in love. Once I tried it on, I just had to purchase the little beauty. I don’t know where or when I’ll wear it but I just knew that I couldn’t leave it in the shop.

Fierce babes.

Shout out to Primark for these £1 sunglasses.

Always find a reason to smile.

Two parties in one night.

I had an engagement party and a friend’s birthday to attend and it was super annoying because they both ended at the same time. I definitely knew where I wanted my night to end though.

'long time friendship is the most beautiful thing that can't ever be replaced'

My fave picture buddy.

Happy birthday again Beautiful!

Although I missed out on the synchronised routines - I had a great time!

Up close and personal.

Too close?

I always receive compliments on my skin and I always think ‘are people blind or what?’ BUT this month my skin has actually been behaving quite well so I thought I’d share the products that I use.

My best friends since 2013.

The best face mask ever.

Coconut fixes everything and Astral smells real good.

How has February treated you?

Lots of love
