This year has possibly been the most exciting of my life. My blog turned 2, I hit 50,000 page views (!!), and hit 40 followers ( not on bloglovin ). Big year for the blog. Hasn't been too bad for me either - in between starting to realise the pressure of GSCE's, I've been to new places, met new people, and just had a beautiful year.
Trips away
I fiiiinaaaaallllyy went on a trip down Columbia Road, and have since been twice because it's absolutely beautiful. It will forever be one of my favourite places in London. The little shops lined up and down the streets, the smell, the atmosphere - all lovely. Also, for my birthday we visited Sketch on Conduit Street and had the best time. The food was insane, and a completely pink room covered in David Shrigley illustrations ticks all of my boxes. I felt really really posh and British, and although we probably shouldn't spend that much money on tea and cake, it was an amazing treat.
Americaaaaa
This year we visited California for 4 weeks, and I love love love love loved it. We went to 7 different places ( los angeles, beverly hills (90210!!!!), santa monica, santa barbara - all of the santa's ), and ate so much junky food. Venice Beach was amazing, and I loved going to all the different vintage shops, wandering about, seeing my cousins, swimming, and doing yoga for the first time (on the beach (at dawn)).
Amsterdam
My dream came true and I visited Amsterdam with my best friends. Ticked off the bucket list - anne frank house, canal tour, floating flower market, and waffles. We even stayed on the (voted) most beautiful street in Amsterdam, so, yeah, get us.
I GOT A DOG
Aaaaaaaaaaaw and the cutest one. Poppy is so funny, and I could spend hours with her. Also, she has got a major haircut since these pictures so she no longer looks like a mop hahahahaha.
London fashion weekend
My lovely mum got tickets to London Fashion Weekend, and we went to see the Sibling show!! I sat in the front row and felt really really sophisticated and cultured :)) But then I stood in the courtyard of Somerset House feeling really small and uncool. But it's okay because, in a ridiculous way, I loved the whole experience.. ft so much coconut water I could die. For my lil blog, I feel insanely lucky to have worked with some incredible companies too, W7, Punky Pins, TheBalm.... I still find all this crazy!! A pretty big thing, I joined the secret blogger project and made the best friends, I love them all to bits.
This year I need to drink more water, I think maybe getting an app that tells me how much I need to drink in a day is the way forward. Also go to more sessions of rowing training, no matter how much I have to force myself. Anyway, thank you for following my blog, see ya on the flip side.
