As I sit down to write my very first post with some actual content, I feel I should begin again, by introducing myself to give you a little bit of background knowledge…
Beginning my career the first week I left university, having studied Interior Architecture & Design, those very first steps taught me an incredible amount about everything, very quickly! Having worked my way up to the role of Style Editor on Essential Kitchen Bathroom Bedroom magazine and settling right into it, late last year our entire office was made redundant due to relocation. Not knowing which way to turn, the option of trying my hand at being a freelance writer and stylist appealed to me the most – the idea of being able to bounce between both areas, broadening my knowledge within the industry, and working with so many different faces really excited me.
Now… I’m sat on my window seat at home, nine months pregnant and ready to pop any day now, while we are all slowly emerging from the strict Covid-19 lockdown rules. So the past year has definitely been one to reflect on and probably not one any of us will forget anytime soon.
Anyway, a blog has been something I have been urging myself to try for years now, and knowing there are so many well read people out there already succeeding is really inspirational, yet a little daunting too if I’m honest. Therefore I have decided to just go with it and make it my own. I’ll be writing about all things lifestyle and interiors, things that genuinely interest me, because why not tie areas together if they complement one another so well?!
My love for food is like no other, and could potentially become a fairly large part of this new journey, along with other new stories and discoveries of products and trends. However, DO NOT FEAR …I will not be overloading you with images of oozing chocolate desserts and sweet, sticky puds - I am most definitely NOT a baker. I am very much a savoury person and I adore the discovery of new flavours and textures.
Now I’ve got all of this out of my system, I’ll leave you to anticipate my next post which includes some gorgeous new products that I’ve been busy shooting from home. You’ll love it, I’m sure!
