Happy 1 Year Of Blogging


So exactly a year today was when i first set up ' Love -X- Beauty'. I had no idea on where i wanted the blog to go or what i wanted to achieve from it apart from that i knew i wanted to share my passion of all things beauty and fashion related. I am so so happy in how far it has grown over the year and i still see it purely as hobby and something that i dont want to see as a 'chore' or posts being forced. In the year i have had times where i just completely have writers blog and have found that scheduling posts is my best friend. I love how sometimes i will write out posts in the pure excitement of finding an amazing product that has wowed me so much. 

Most of all i just want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone that follows my blog and leaves me lovely comments :) everytime you interact me with i feel so happy and i love blogging so much. 

Again following on from my 2014 post i have so many ideas for my blog this year and i cannot wait to share them all with you! i will be coming at you all with a handful of posts. 

Happy 1st year of blogging to my blog yayyyyyy!

New Year New start - 2014


 Well hello everyone!! it feels like such a long time since i have properly blogged and its been so weird not writing out posts. To be honest life just completely took over with stress of uni work and enjoying christmas its been left behind but im back :) - Hope you all had a lovely christmas!

2013 has been a strange year for me as ive felt like life has just been plodding along but me looking from a different perspective. I havent felt myself at all and not to sound too down but i havent been enjoying life as i should be. At 22 years old i have been having a so called midlife crisis is whats its seemed. I have had alot more downs than ups to be fair. Just a few weeks ago i thought everything i was doing was just going completely wrong not being motivated or wanting to actually do anything. So ive vowed that 2014 will be so much better. 

I want 2014 to be full of laughter, memories and adventures. Doing things last minute that are completely spontaneous! - (I also have a book from Katie Piper who is a huge inspirational person to note and within the book it contains 365 of positive affirmations. Now you may be thinking god she needs to get a grip but honestly the small things like affirmations truely make me feel so much better. I cannot wait to look at it everyday and to not take life for granted. 

As most people say every year 'next year will be better - new year new start' i firmly believe its going to be my year in which im going to make it my mission for it to bring me back to life. I have no idea in what i want to happen but its going to be an exciting journey and i for sure want to update you all in what happens along the way :)

May 2014 bring you all happiness <3

'From today i will think about the good things to come in my life, and let go of things that have happened in the past. I can make great things happen'.
