When there’s sunshine, it just instantly makes you smile and be happy, and there’s nothing better than waking up and going to bed in a great mood. I always find that focusing on certain things that do make you happy can instantly lift your mood when you’re having a bad day.

The Bloggers Hangout BLFW Event

This week I was invited along to The Bloggers Hangout BLFW event, in Hoxton, for a fun filled evening of all things fashion, beauty and skin care. As a blogger it’s always fascinating to discover new brands, who each have their own niche, as well as remain committed to firm favourite brands.
