Bringing Important Memories Into Your Decor

Bringing memories into your decor is a great way to show more of your personality, fill your home with love and happiness and ensure that your decor is always unique. It’s a wonderful way to make a house a home and give it plenty of personal touches, creating a talking point and giving your rooms new focus. Your home, after all, is your private space. It’s where you are free to relax and be yourself. Nothing makes this easier than being surrounded by important memories and things that mean something to you. Here are some ways to incorporate your memories into your decor. 

Inntravel UK Walking Holidays

When I start planning my holidays, I always think of going to Europe or further away but I am very blessed to be living in the UK where there are various cities to explore and what better way to do that then on a walking holiday with Inntravel. They offer many types of walking holidays all year round and whatever your fitness level, including self-guided, non-group walking, village-to-village walking and family trips.

I particularly love walking wherever I am in the world, I think it's the best way to get a feel for a place, but even if you loathe walking just think of the refreshing fresh air, exercise and amazing views of the countryside you could be experiencing. But also walking takes you away from the hustle and bustle of your ordinary life. It's sometimes nice to forget about our mobile phones and switch off from social media and the internet, this means you can interact more and reconnect with your friends, partner or children.

How to Wear Polka Dots

Retro trends are definitely making a comeback, first came the gingham trend but now it's all about Polka Dots! You might think of the black and white colour combination when you think of polka dots but I'm here to show you that there's lots more brighter, summery colours on the high street and also different sized dots! Meaning you can keep it subtle if you want or if you're really daring you could even wear head to toe polka dots or even mix them up with stripes!

 There is plenty of polka dot styles on the high street including trousers for a more tailored look, cute polka dot blouses that you can pair with denim, wrap style dresses for the office or shopping trips and also sophisticated skirts like mine! This huge summer trend, might even be a bit of competition for florals (if that's even possible) but I have managed to incorporate them too with todays cute summer look.

Bottomless Brunch at Aster London

We've all heard of brunch but the "newish" trend inspired by America and now taking over UK cities including London is Bottomless Brunch. So last weekend I planned a trip to London to see my friend Hannah who lives there and we booked my first ever bottomless brunch (yes I know where have I been doing with my life?). We decided to go to Aster Restaurant and Cafe in Victoria, London because she has been before and said it was amazing! As soon as I saw the floral decorations on the door I was keen to get inside and experience it for myself.

Five Must See Places and Sights Around the World

When we think of our travel bucket list or just simply the places we want to travel to there is always a reason why we want to travel there, usually it's because the place has a hidden gem, it's famous for a particular reason or has a popular landmark that is drawing you to that particular country. There are some cities you should visit and others that can be skipped but that is your own personal preference. But you can be assured no matter where you live in the world, there are incredible places and architectural sights to see, so make sure you eventually tick them off your list because you'll only regret it in the long term. Below are my must see places to inspire you for your next trip away.

Four Steps To Creating a Fabulous Home Office

Being able to work from home can be a great perk of blogging or even a full time job. But if you don’t have a space that is fit for purpose, then it can mean that your days are less productive, and there are too many distractions to help you to get on with your tasks. Not everyone is going to have a specific spare room to use as an office, and some will use a corner of their bedroom or the dining room. But if you do have a dedicated space, then here are some tips to help you design it with productivity in mind.

How to Make a Small Bathroom Look and Feel Bigger

Most of us can live with a small living room. If we can fill it up with pillows and throws, then a small living room is sometimes preferable to one that’s too big, especially on those chilly autumn and winter nights. Ditto the bedroom! But when it comes to the bathroom, these rules don’t apply. When we’re trying to get ready for work or a night out with friends, we don’t want to feel cramped into a small space. But if we can’t change the size of our bathroom, then what can we do? We can try to make it seem bigger than it is by using these simple solutions.

Styling Lemon Prints for Summer

If you've heard the saying "when life gives you lemons make lemonade" well I say when life gives you lemons wear them! Yes you heard me right tropical lemon prints are going to be a big trend this summer dethroning the pineapple trend we all know and love. Lemon prints have already been seen squeezing onto a selection of accessories, blouses, dresses, bikinis and lots more on the high street. I already own a blouse which I'm styling today and a phone case from CaseApp. Yes the obsession has started...

But why are we starting to fall in love with this tropical print so much? For starters it's colourful, fun and fresh and has been seen on various catwalk shows including Dolce and Gabbana. 

Smart Ways To Save Money In Life

Life comes with its fair share of monetary costs that we all have to pay. You face expenses such as rent (or mortgage payments) and utility bills on a monthly basis because you need a roof over your head. Of course, some of the costs we incur are non-essential luxuries such as holidays or meals at nice restaurants with our friends, but you might argue that luxuries are essential to keeping us happy. The point is that you probably see a big part of your income vanish on a variety of expenditures every month. However, you might be able to reduce those expenditures (both luxuries and necessities) so that you have more disposable income. Here are some smart ways to save money in life.
