It’s was a funny old week last week. A hormonal week. A week of thinking, feeling, re-evaluating. I needed a social media break Last Sunday I deleted social media off my phone for the first time in over ten years. I have an addiction to my phone, […]
Yesterday I put out a post explaining why I was done with blogging. You can read it here. As I hit publish last night, I wasn’t sure what people would think of the piece. Did I just look like I was moaning? Or giving in because I’d failed? The comments […]
I haven’t written anything on this website for two months. I could tell you I’ve ‘been busy’, with a wedding and a new house to plan for. I could tell you I’ve ‘been rubbish’, and I’ll start posting twice a week now with extra Instagram […]

These last six weeks have been a whirlwind – so much has happened and it’s only now that I’ve had the chance to sit down and write about it on this little blog of mine. I am engaged! It still feels so strange to write that, but yep, this girl’s […]
Like many others, I hopped on the Isle of Paradise bandwagon after seeing countless Instagram posts from bloggers showing off their bronzed and glowy skin as a result of using the products. We’ve started to see a hint of spring in the last couple of […]
I’ve been working on a little something…which is why it has been a little quiet around here! After lots of planning, hard-work and organisation, I am very excited to unveil my new blog shop to you all! ‘SophieSoSells’ is now live and will […]
