Ironically I have been meaning to write this post for a while, which I guess means I am slightly contradicting myself here, maybe I'm not the best person to give tips on this! But now I am (kind of) back in the swing of things, I thought I'd write a lil' post about how I've found coming back to blogging after taking a rather longer than expected break from it, and what I'd recommend doing if you're in the same position as me! Plus it has given me the chance to show of the photos of my GORGEOUS Daniel Wellington watch which I am a little bit obsessed with right now - they have a new collection don't you know! Come see more <3 

I for one absolutely LOVE finding new Instagram accounts to follow, there are so many talented people out there and I honestly think I could sit and scroll through their posts for hours. My favourite Beauty accounts post (part one and part two) seemed to go down really well last week, so I thought I'd carry on the series sooner than expected. Here are my favourite Fashion & Lifestyle accounts to follow! I hope it helps you to discover some new ones! 

Following yesterdays post (My Favourite Beauty Instagram's To Follow #1) here is part 2 of my favourites! Another 6 beautiful, aesthetically pleasing and addictive accounts that I cannot get enough of! Just like yesterday, if you see any accounts you like the look of, please do head over and show them some love, because these ladies seriously deserve a few pats on the back! 

In our current generation, there is no denying that A LOT of our time is spent online, we are the digital generation. And whilst I love it - how could I not - my blog wouldn't be here with-out it? It also has its draw-backs. Although hard to accept/admit I can honestly say that I know I spend to much time living through a screen, rather than actually living. Its a powerful thing to hear/think and also quite a scary thought. I have decided to put some focus recently into spending less time in front of a screen,  but also finding ways of cutting back the time I NEED to spend there. Here are my thoughts. 

Why hello there, thanks for stopping by! If you're a blogger then I'm sure you will know how much every little bit of support can help, gives you a confidence boost and of course, helps your blog to grow. If you aren't a blogger, then please know that the above couldn't be more true and that every little like/share means a lot to us bloggesr! I thought I would put together 5 easy ways you can support the blogs you love, whether you're a blogger or not, It really couldn't be easier! 

I have been loving doing these posts (you've probably noticed with 4 in the space of only 2 months) but I just love that A. It makes me read more blogs, something I already love doing, but this somehow makes me pay more attention and B. I just love sharing the love, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Here are the blog posts that I have been enjoying with a cuppa T & a biscuit recently.

Page Views/ Blog Traffic is something I used to CONSTANTLY worry about. I would check my stats every single day and prey they would be on the incline. I used to frantically search for the best ways to gain more traffic and try/test different methods that often resulted in little change. Now-a-days I take a more laid back with it. I have found a little routine that works for me, using some simple steps that take no time at all. I thought I would write a simple little guide on the things I do. 

I no longer reach for Glamour Mag or a book when I fancy a lil' me time, I now head online and hit up some blogs I love getting engrossed in and ending in 22 posts deep, reading articles from months ago. I love reading blogs full of personality, and most importantly that tell a story - I like giggling along with the writer, or sharing a tear or two. I have decided to start a series about the blogs I have been loving, this being #1. I saw the Idea on Fran's blog and thought it was another great way to share the love! Here are 12 blog posts I have been loving over the past month of so.

I am in no way suggesting that my blog photography is the best in the bloggersphere, in fact it's nowhere near, BUT, what I would say I'm pretty damn good at *pats self on the back* is being a major blog prop hoarder- like seriously. I just can't help it, my mind says no but my flatlay says yes, yano? Whack any Marble/Rose Gold/Copper or ooh pretty fairy lights in front of me and I'm YOURS!
​The likes of IKEA, Paperchase and TKMAX have made a little fortune outta' me and I thought it was only fair for me to share my fave picks with you guys so you might pick some up yourself, to at least make myself feel a lil' bit better about the amount I have, so thanks!

Whether you've been blogging for 6 days or 6 years, there are some things we can't deny we all do, things that  "non-bloggers" would look at us like we're completely deluded..
​ It comes with the title, and just know, it's okay!
