Our favourite bloggers


Hey everyone!

So in our first blog post we talked about some of our inspiration for starting a beauty & lifestyle blog coming from the likes of Zoella, Couture Girl & Birds Words.

These are only a few of the blogs we follow & love so we thought we would do a little post on some of our favourite bloggers (there's so many!) and realistically, our inspiration has come from each and every blog we read as they are all so different! These ladies who have been blogging for months, even years make it look so much fun we just couldn't resist giving it a whirl! (Once we have got past HTML & Blog Design crisis!)

As you already know, we LOVE all things beauty related as well as fashion, lifestyle and tutorials, and reading the blog posts on BlogLovin' is a perfect past time when your getting cosey on the sofa with a brew, or even on your travels to work (We can't resist  having a sneak peak on our dinner breaks in work!) 

Blogs are also fab to see whats new and up and coming in the world of beauty; we can't wait to rush to the shops to buy new products and the majority of the time its these blogs that we see it on first! There are also some fab ideas you see on other peoples blogs that you wouldn't usually have seen... We have to admit, reading Couture Girl's blog made us go straight to Ikea & buy the Malm dressing table & drawer tidy's (Thanks Kayleigh!)

This page is to show our appreciation to the above ladies for giving us the motivation & inspiration to start blogging; were both so excited to begin this blogging venture and can only hope that our blog is as good as yours!

Our very first blog!...




Well, here it is; Our very first blog. I suppose we best introduce ourselves!...

We're Jen & Soph; two cousins who have a passion for beauty, fashion and all things pretty. We have both wanted to start a blog for so long now and over the Christmas period we thought, why not create a blog together so that we can both share our thoughts on our favourite things.

As avid readers of other beauty blogs such as  Couture Girl, Zoella and Beths Bird's Words, our inspiration comes from these lovely ladies as they make blogging look so much fun.

So a bit of background about us... (You can head over to our about us page to find out more!); Sophie is 24 and works in Recruitment and is also a trained beauty therapist who has previously worked for Elemis & Bliss. Jen is a 26 year old HR professional and both have a healthy (some may say unhealthy...) obsession for all things Beauty.

Between the two of us, our make up collection (although not huge) is substantial enough to write blog posts and share thoughts on any new products that we may come across. We're constantly texting eachother and talking about new products and we CANNOT WAIT to begin our blogging venture and share our thoughts with you lovely lot!

We have lots of ideas for blog posts and look forward to sharing them with you and hearing your thoughts! 

That's enough from us for now! We hope you enjoy our blogs on all things pretty! 

Lots of love & hugs
