It's a weird thing isn't it, to appreciate every moment?

There must be thousands upon thousands of 'inspirational quotes' inspiring you to live every day as if it was your last - but it's not really that easy is it? There are days when it's chucking it down with rain - even in July - and nothing goes to plan and you just want to appreciate the day in bed with a Dominoes and 40 tonnes of chocolate.

I wanted to write this post as a little bit of a warning to you guys, and also to make myself feel a bit better.

Basically, something really cool happened last Tuesday... I went and got a job in London. YAY! Cue me getting all excited as if you're a regular reader you know this is something I've been aiming for for quite a while. And it's here!

Seriously?
Seriously?
How is it July already like?!

I may be writing this in a slight prosecco-induced haze but last month did kind of vanish didn't it? I feel like Isle of Wight Festival was about 5 months ago but it was three weeks. I don't really know what I've done with this year but we've made it half way through! 2017 is already a-looming.

There's a load of posts going round at the moment about why you shouldn't track your views or focus on them. But I am a STAT TRACKER and I am PROUD! (cringe)

ANYWAY here's why!

I'm on a bit of a skincare hype. I'm still going!



Flint + Flint are a wonderful skincare brand that produce high end products, using ingredients that are found in medical dermatology products. However, compared to the actual medical products these are a lot more affordable, but are still just as amazing. *Insert sassy lady emoji*

I've been a bit rubbish this week, and I know it. Right now I'm suffering from bad bloggers block/life block and I thought a little old life update would be the best way to get a post out that wasn't half hearted.

To be honest the whole month of June has been a bit of a write off, for me. Don't get me wrong, I have had great days, the Festival was incredible but this whole month just seems to have been a bit meh. I know that there's nothing in particular thats gone spectacularly wrong but the little things add up don't they. Le sigh. 

If you follow me on Twitter, you'll know that I really wanted to start trying a new daily lipstick.

Because I dyed my hair blue, and it's now turned black with my brown roots coming through making me look like a complete idiot (I should wear this all the time) it means that I think bright lipsticks wash me out. Even more than dark hair does. What a plank. So I wanted a natural lipstick that I could wear to work and just in general.

But alas, I hate shopping. I hate shopping for clothes. I hate shopping for make up.

I'm feeling so nostalgic this week. This time last year, exactly to the day, I was wondering along the strip in Sidari for the first time, tucking into my first prawn and mussel carbonara and spending the evening watching the beautiful sunset.

And where am I today? I've been at work and spinning.
