How to be more eco friendly has to be at the top of most of our lists this year – it sure is for us. I’ve spoken about this many times before on my blog all around day to day life and 5 ways to be more eco friendly and this post about sustainable style which is based around shopping my own wardrobe, shopping less and better and shunning fast fashion as much as possible.
There are many great reasons to make improvements to your home, and so many kinds of improvements to make, that it is hard to know where to begin if you want to do so. One of the best things about such home improvements is that it makes your home better to live in, more suitable for you personally or just a nicer home generally, for you and your family and even your guests. But which are the improvements you should think about first and foremost, if you know that you want to make an improvement but you are not sure which? Let’s take a look at some options which are always going to be great.
Planning a wedding is really exciting. The old-school and pretty awful general consensus was that you should have ugly bridesmaids so that they don’t stand out above you on the day. I mean, sorry but all of my friends are beautiful on the inside and out. But, if there is one lesson that brides could learn really fast, it’s that you cannot be outshone by a bridesmaid. Now I’ve not even decided if I really want bridesmaids as our wedding is pretty low key but I still love dreaming about the Pinterest boards and love to chat about the topic.
It’s time for another money diary and pre-payday / post-Christmas is bound to be a weird one!
Saturday
A little new year’s resolution is to see as many people as I can basically all the damn time, especially in January because it can be a bit grim, can’t it? Popped to meet two of my friends and one of their super cute toddlers, free parking and then £4.30 breakfast and juice in Wetherspoon’s is a steal for scrambled eggs, toast, beans, veggie sausage and orange juice.
Before Christmas I had the privilege to pop down to The Cod’s Scallops in Carrington to check them out and learn all about their eateries before the 2020 Fish n Chip Awards that are this month! The Cod’s Scallops are an amazing local chain of fish and chip shops created by John Molnar, who used his 30 years of chef and business experience to get onboard a skilled crew, source the finest produce and set sail a fish and chip concept like no other. It really is unlike any other chippy I’ve ever been to!
As well as working full time I offer social media services as a content creator and social media manager with nine years of experience which spans national and international businesses. I have worked for and with brands such as UNiDAYS, Fox’s Biscuits, Pukka Pies, Yes To skincare, Nottingham City Council and Licor 43.
Hi, I’m Allie 👋🏼
I’ve been a blogger since 2011 and have worked in-house and within an agency environment on social media, digital marketing and content creation with a focus on influencer relations since 2014. During my time as a blogger and content creator I have worked with some fantastic brands across the lifestyle, fashion and food sectors such as McArthurglen Designer Outlet, Lindt UK, John Lewis, Boohoo, Urban Outfitters, Las Iguanas, Wagamama, Intu, Rekorderlig, Loch Fyne and Tobi.
Another year, another almost 365 days of wearing makeup, here are my top products of 2019.
Primer
I’ve been using erborian primers all year and they really are awesome. I featured them in this brand discovery blog post a little while ago but I’m still working my way through the Bamboo Glow* and finished up erborian Matte Creme* a few months ago which was so good for mattifying and worked really well with my favourite foundation. I don’t have a favourite primer other than these, I find they really do what they say they will so they’re super reliable!
I love a good horoscope and bit of astrology so when Wayfair shared their latest campaign about how to decorate your home according to your horoscope with me I thought it was so cute! And, to be fair it’s pretty spot on for me as I love a geometric print and a bit of Art Deco. See if your horoscope is spot on for your home style below.
Proposal accepted. Wedding planning time.
We all have our different ideas about what our perfect wedding will entail, and, you’ve probably already put a lot of thought into it. Well, if you’d like a few quirky ideas to steal in addition- these five have got you covered!
1 . Photo Booth
Hiring a photo booth can be an excellent quirky addition to any wedding. Perhaps you’ve tried one before at a work office party? There are some seriously great companies out there for this sort of thing, providing a range of gorgeous boutique or vintage style themes. It’s not all strictly cheesy props (unless you like that sort of thing)! There are many high-end style photo booths to be found that could make an awesome addition to your special day.
