Blogging every day

By -


There is just two more posts left after today's before I will have completed my challenge/New Year's resolution of writing a blog post every single day for a year- plus one extra that I did for BJ's birthday! That's a grand total of 367 blog posts and let me tell you, I've learnt a thing or two about blogging in that time!

The most popular posts are the posts where I get personal; particularly about my body/body image etc. However, my relationship posts were also very popular. You guys just love to read all the personal details about my life you nosy buggars! 

It is incredibly difficult to find inspiration for a blog post every single day. Some days I'm really on it and other days I'm writing the most crappy post that I claim is a 'chatty catch up' with five minutes to spare before the day is over. 

It is also time consuming to write a post every single day. I even wrote a blog post for every single day of both of my holidays this year, somehow cramming in the time to do them all! I'm not sure how I did it but I'm pretty proud of myself regardless. 

It's very rewarding because it's given me the chance to create new content on a more regular basis than ever before, as well as to cover some topics I wouldn't normally do in an attempt to keep the content fresh, such as my Autumn fashion post! 

It's showed me what posts I love to write the most and which ones I don't. I love writing the personal ones because they evoke the better reactions from my readers. They are also very therapeutic to write too, and always make me feel better about whatever topic I'm writing about too! 

Blogging every day is a challenge but it has definitely made me consider full time blogging/content creation as a career. I think in 2017 I might start working harder than ever before to try and make this idea a reality- being a full time blogger/writer would be so cool! 

Blogging every single day for 2016 has been amazing and I can't actually believe a) how fast this year has gone and b) that I've actually managed to stick with one of the most unlikely of New Year Resolutions! I never stick to resolutions and I thought this would be another one that was too difficult/boring for me, but I was wrong! Somehow I've managed to stick it out to the very end and I'm so proud of myself! I'm not sure I'll be blogging every day for 2017 but I think some days I'll be sat twiddling my thumbs without having a blog post to write, so I'll probably be blogging more regularly than I did before this year! 

Thanks for sticking with all my blog posts this year, the good and the bad, and thanks to all of you who have read every single one- I know who most of you are and I absolutely adore you all you babes!

Love from,
Florence Grace

    Well done! Blogging every day is such hard work but it is such a huge achievement! I'm the same as you - in 2017 I'm planning on working towards making blogging/content creation a full-time career in the future!

Children With Cancer UK Fashion Show!

Friday 27th February 2015 saw the grand event that was a fashion show in London for the fabulous charity, Children with Cancer UK. I was invited to the event about 2 weeks ago as a blogger, to cover the event and raise awareness of the charity. I was honored to have been asked to do so, as the charity is really just so important, as well as super excited to cover a fashion show, as this was something I had never done before! The night was a huge success, and the display of talent was extremely impressive- from the designers work, to the various acts performing in between! The venue was fairly glamorous, based at The Building Centre in London, and upon entry we received glasses of wine, nibbles and goody bags, as well as having the opportunity to mingle with some of the other guests before the show began. When it was time for the show to start, I went to try and seat myself- only to find that because I was "press", I needed to get myself a press pass (which I was thri

#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek - Body Image and Mental Health

By -

This week (13th - 20th May 2019) is Mental Health Awareness Week. This year, the theme is Body Image - how we think and feel about our bodies.  Those of you who have followed me for some time will know that for about two years now, if not more, I have been an advocate for body positivity and self love. More recently, you may have seen me featured in a story in The Metro , talking about a body shaming incident I experienced on holiday and how I dealt with it.  There's absolutely no denying that there is a direct correlation between body image and our mental health. I know that personally, when I'm experiencing a "bad body day" and don't feel very positively about my body, for whatever reason, my mental health goes down the drain too. Yet when we feel good about our bodies, this can be reflected in our mental health too.  When I experienced body shaming in my bikini on holiday, I felt the lowest I had in a while. I believed the words I'd heard -

Eating Disorders- the Blunt Truth.

WARNING:  The following content is sensitive and me be triggering to those suffering from, recovering from or who have recovered from eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia and other health problems such as depression. As I sit down in my local pub ready to tuck into my generous portion of gammon and chips, I feel a prickle on the back of my neck- that all to familiar feeling of knowing that someone is staring at you. As I whip my head around the dining area, my eyes fall on the slender figure of a girl, probably around my age, maybe a few years younger, looking at me with disgust in her eyes- disgust clearly at the way I look and what I'm eating. I feel fat, bulky, uncomfortable and I let my glance fall to her own plate, noticing she has a salad, mostly untouched. She sips constantly at her water like it's the only thing keeping her alive. It probably is. It is a sad but true statistic that over half of teenage girls and one third of teenage boys use unhealthy wei
