Changes Ahead

Yes, I realise that it’s January 12th and I’m probably late to the party but I thought I’d let you know what’s going on with my blog for 2015..

1. There will be less beauty posts. Not that there was a HUGE amount before but living in the countryside there is a limited selection of brands and a limited selection of products unless ordered on the internet, obviously with regards to shades and inability to swatch this makes it quite hard. (Having said that, over Christmas I have acquired quite a few new things so you might see some of those soon)

2. Monthly favourites will changes slightly, I’m not going to split them up into specific categories as I felt like I HAD to find something for each category even if there wasn’t anything that I loved that month. I may have liked it but probably not enough to count it as a favourite.

3. In 2013 (bear with me) I did some relatively serious damage to my knee and getting the confidence to get back into fitness proved difficult. I’d been wanting to try CrossFit for a while and in October, after a summer of gentle exercising, I signed up. It’s brilliant, I’m in the gym at least five times a week and my knee is slowly building back strength. So, now I’m fully back with the fitness bug, there will be more health and fitness posts including fitness fashion, lifestyle tips, motivation and more…

I think that’s it really, nothing to be scared of 🙂 Thank you for sticking with me through 2014, looking forward to sharing 2015 with you!
