Another pic from Malvern - it was such a gorgeous day. Had a chilled one today, just watching vlogs, doing some jobs around the flat and making veggie chilli. Tom’s been to the shop to get some pop and sweeties ready for Love Island tonight... funny how we were sceptical about watching it... and now we’re completely hooked and talk about it 24/7. 🙈 Hope everyone has had a fab weekend!

Wishing I was with my adorable momma and pops in Sorrento 💛

Great Malvern station last weekend... I’m a huge lover of old buildings and actually get upset when old original structures are knocked down (not exaggerating, I genuinely get sad!), so I was very happy to see that the original Victorian station at Great Malvern is still in use. It even has an old fashioned refreshment room with William Morris wallpaper, so cute.

Had a lovely, refreshing few days in Birmingham. Mom treated me to @inthemomentmag and I loved it - full of inspiring little articles and gorgeous illustrations... would defo recommend. Also, you can’t beat a great British stripy deck chair!

Here I am on Instagram, looking all happy and smiley. This photo is what I’ve consciously chosen to share. What I didn’t choose is a photo of me looking sad this morning. I think a lot of my friends assume I have my shit together 24/7 because I’ve moved out and live with my boyfriend, have a job I like and share lots of nice stuff on social media. But I don’t think any of us have it all together, all of the time. I defo don’t, and I was actually kind of shocked when a friend said I gave her that impression. I’ve been feeling the effects of imposter syndrome massively over the past few days, along with feeling overwhelmed by a few aspects of my life. It’s hard sometimes to keep up appearances and pretend everything is hunky-dory. And it can be hard to see all this curated, beautiful stuff on Instagram when you’re feeling a bit shit. I don’t really know how to round this off... but I think I’ll just say that everything people post online is edited and chosen carefully and projects an intended image. Nobody is perfect and no life is perfect. So try not to compare yourself or your life... easier said than done I know, but it’s worth a try. 🌻

Had a gorgeous day mooching around Malvern for mom’s birthday, also... IT’S COMING HOME!! 🎉
