3 Amazing Blogs For Blogging Tips, Advice + Tutorials


Today I really wanted to share with you three blogs that I have been absolutely loving lately as I've been slowly revamping my blog. The first one is I Can Build A Blog - the first thing I noticed about this blog was how beautiful the design is! But it's not just a pretty face; the articles are so informative and easy to follow, I'm sure I'll always go back here for tutorials and how-tos.


I have also been loving Jenny Purr for a little while now. Again this blog's layout and design is so simple and inviting and easy to follow. The articles are so well written, insightful and in depth. There are step by step guides, interviews, challenges and loads of resources to inspire you to make your blog the best it can be. I highly recommend checking it out if you don't follow already.


I actually only just came across Elle & Co. through Jenny Purr's first podcast last week, but she too has a tonne of great resources, tips and advice on her blog. I can definitely see myself going back through her archives!

What are your favourite blogs with tutorials and other helpful resources? What kind of advice do you find most useful?

Hope you are having a fantastic week!

Hello! Wow, I cannot believe the first week of March is already nearly over! How fast is this year going so far?

I wanted to share a couple of current things in my life, or upcoming things I'm excited about!

1. Firstly and most importantly, I got a new camera! I got this gorgeous white Sony a6000 and it is amazing. I am still a total amateur when it comes to photography, so I can't wait to learn all I can on such an awesome camera. I have only had a little play with it and I haven't tapped into its true potential yet, and I'm already in love with it. After doing a tonne of research into cameras and liking this one, I was so excited to see that it came in white, I just had to get it. I was totally happy to spend more money to have the white one. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.

2. I was really excited to read that Adore Home Magazine are releasing another print edition! The last one was so beautiful, I love it. This one is called the Paradise Edition, and they are running a Pozible campaign to raise money for printing costs. Head over here to pre-order!

3. I bought a small string of pearls plant a little while ago, and it's growing well! They are such interesting and pretty plants. I just need to find a really nice hanging pot for it. Once it gets settled it'll be pretty hard to move around, so I need the perfect pot! I'm actually considering making one. If you have any DIY hanging pot tutorials to recommend, let me know!

4. This is a bit of a strange one. I just got a pair of Timberland boots! They arrived this morning, and I'm pretty excited. I just wanted a comfy boot for travelling, walking, hiking, that also looked nice to me. When I'm in Japan later this month, I think they'll be great to wear all day walking around and exploring (with their anti-fatigue technology and waterproof exterior... God I sound like an ad!) and then will look fine to wear to a restaurant or out for drinks etc at night (let's face it a lot of hiking shoes are really, really hideous, although I'm sure they are very comfortable and perfect for hiking). My brother has already teased me about them, calling me Kanye - I guess I kind of didn't know there was a stereotype surrounding these boots? Anyway, I'm a fan. And I'm not a rapper in case you were wondering.

I have lots and lots of ideas and projects I can't wait to share with you guys... Hope everyone is enjoying March so far!
