February To Do List.

Beauty
I can’t even believe its February already and I know I’m a little late with this post seeing as it is the middle of the month, but what the heck right? I’m just about to start my second year of university which is terrifying yet exciting all at the same time and I’m using that as my excuse for not posting sooner. – Join my local library so I can start reading books again. – Get more organised with this blog. I’m really slacking at posting and I need to plan, photograph and schedule. – Treat myself to some...

Five Positive Things in January.

life
These posts to me feel a bit like diary entries, although with less of a commitment. So here are my five positive things in January. 01. I have officially passed my first year of university. I am now set to enter my second year of Nursing, how fricking scary is that? I’ll tell you the answer, it’s very scary. Terrifying really. Time has flown by and when I compare last year Jodie to current Jodie, well there’s a difference there. Current Jodie is much happier with her circumstances, I mean I can’t complain at passing first year with a...

Lush Ultrabland Cleanser.

Beauty
Scrolling through my blog, I realised that I hadn’t put a post together on my skincare partner in crime. I did harp on a lot about Lush’s Ultrabland cleanser at one point but then radio silence occurred on this blog of mine, and well, here we are today with this post to sing the praises of this little tub of wonder. The biggest thing that put me off this was the fact it claims it’s for all skin types. Being oily and blemish prone that’s a massive red flag. Every great love affair starts off that way right? No...

January Goals.

life
Happy New Year to you all. I’m starting as I mean to go on and actually posting on this blog of mine. It’s been a while and I’m sure a lot has changed since I last posted, but hopefully there’s someone out there that still reads this thing. We all got to watch 2016 die and now January has rolled around I’ve got the gusto to actually set myself some goals, so here goes. 01. Actually post on this blog. I’m literally the worst. No time frames, no schedules, nothing. I’m hoping the aim of posting something will be...

Where have I been?

life
In short, I’ve been busy. A new relationship, ten weeks placement on a heavy medical ward, assignments, and figuring me out takes up some energy. It’s no excuse for bailing on my blog, I put in a lot of hard work and to just ditch it as it was just getting going again is a classic Jodie move, but here I am. Back again. Hopefully this time for good. I’m hoping my pictures can be kick ass all the time, and I’m also hoping that I can muster up the motivation to post on here twice a week at...

Five Positive Things.

life
Long time, no type. I’m not really quite sure what to say other than life got the best of me. I’ve been a bit like a zombie for the past few weeks and this post marks the end of that. Seeing as it’s the beginning of another month (wasn’t it Christmas like last month?) what better way to start it than with a life round up? 01 – I started my first placement this week! I’m finally being let out into the big, bad world and I’m feeling nothing but excitement. My first assignment was also due in on...

Barry M Eat My Dust.

Beauty
Pastels always call my name, and a polish that’s fit this bill but been sadly neglected is Barry M’s Quick Dry in the shade Eat My Dust. Apart from how much my inner feminist loves the shade name, the beauty lover inside me adores pretty much everything about this one. When Anna recommended it sometime last year, I rushed to my local Superdrug, popped it in my basket and the rest was history. By that, I mean I didn’t use the thing. I’m slapping my wrists as we speak because I’ve been missing out. Big time. The colour is...

Finding your Blogging Niche.

Beauty
From the day dot, the piece of advice everyone loves to include in a post about blogging is finding your ‘niche‘. It’s an idea I always mentally wrestle with. On the one hand I want to be a jack of all trades, but then on the other, I’m being told I need to box myself in order to be successful. Do you know what I’ve realised though? I’m a multi faceted human. I like food, I like fashion, I like beauty, I like pretty things. I like reading posts about interiors all the way to a book review. If...

The Perfect Flatlay – How To.

Beauty•life
I’m a sucker for a good flatlay, and they’re some of my favourite pictures to take for this blog. Knowledge is power and all that malarkey, so I thought I’d share some of my tips. First up – there is no such thing as the PERFECT flatlay *spoiler alert*. If you look at your picture and think ‘damn that’s good‘ then congratulations, you’ve essentially taken the perfect picture for a flatlay. Nevertheless I’ll still divulge my tips, because sharing is caring, right? – Drawing inspiration from some of your favourite bloggers is always a good place to start. Quiz...

Blossoming.

life
Sometimes I feel like I need to just write to get out exactly what I’m thinking and feeling, and this is one of those times. Uni is really getting on top of me, and something has to give. Naturally the thing that has to give is this, my blog. I’m still going to be posting and taking pictures that I think are pretty, but I’m going to take more of a backseat. I’ve let my blog become the reason as to why I’m procrastinating writing an assignment, and it’s not a work ethic I want to adopt. I want...
