You know what makes a subscription box really stand out? When you're excited at every stage of the unboxing process. And Rainbow Soul Surprise* does not disappoint. From the exterior of the box, to the tissue paper, to the items inside, I just kept unwrapping more awesomeness! Yes, those are actual drawers! And there's stuff… Continue reading Self-Care Sunday #30 [Rainbow Soul Surprise review]
My blog is one of the few areas of my life where I like to be consistently busy - it gives me a reason to keep working on it rather than slacking. Plus regular collaborations are great for my self-confidence; I must be doing something right! The blog is also the part of my life… Continue reading Self-Care Sunday #29
Autumn is coming and you can't beat pulling the curtains as the evenings get darker, making yourself a hot chocolate in your favourite mug, lighting some candles and settling down with a good book. It's time to start embracing the hygge life again!

It's been another week where I've not had a lot of time to myself but last night I actually asked for help. I'm behind on blogging (I put too much pressure on myself to stick to my self-imposed schedule) and I haven't had time to work on my contributions to an awesome magazine which I've… Continue reading Self-Care Sunday #20
This week's post may seem like a bit of a cop out as I've not had any time for self-care this week but stick with me here. My latest self-care tip is to have a good moan.
