I've recently filmed a collaboration video with 'The Bloggers Hub' all about Organisation when it comes to Blogging & Making YouTube videos! I thought I'd write a blog post to go alongside it! The video has some of my own personal tips (& this blog post has a few extras!) There's no rules to blogging, I just find these make it easier for myself!
Tidy Room, Tidy Mind :: I find having a tidy work space really helps keep things in check. My work space is in fact my living space, as I'm a student. So I try and keep my bedroom nice and tidy so I'm in a healthy work environment.
Photos, Photos, Photos :: Take photos in bulk! If you've got 5 products to review, instead of doing them all separately, set up your lights or find the right natural light & background then shoot them all. It'll save you time and then you're ready and able to do the rest, on the go, if necessary. I always feel stumped if I haven't got the photos done first, they're the thing I have to do at home, the rest, I can do anywhere!
Schedule to your hearts content! :: I have found that scheduling tweets has made keeping up appearances on social media so much easier! I can catch audiences I wouldn't normally due to a lecture at that time or not waking up at that time every day (oooops!). Also, I've recently discovered that scheduling posts helps too, I just need to be on top of things enough to do them both to work in sync... I'll get there eventually!
To check out my other tips, watch my video below!

IT'S VLOGMAAAAAAAS!
Vlogmas Week One is up!
I get ill, I go home for the weekend, I decorate the christmas tree and I catch up with one of my best friends!
A little thumbs up would be lovely! Any feedback is welcome, I'm still getting used to this vlogging thang!
Love, G

It has been a craaaazy busy week, hoping things will settle down a little this week! I need my sleep!
(Read #5 for this one! Melts my heart just a little!)
1. One year with Henry. He makes me so happy, I'm a very lucky girl.
2. Halloween! So much fun with friends all weekend. Sweet treats, blood stained costumes and lots of laughs.
3. My little brother turning 7. He's still a little bubba in my eyes... and forever will be!
4. Triple Chocolate Apples. so good.
5. Receiving a beautiful bouquet of red roses from my Mr, as a pre-anniversary/'thanks for tidying the flat' gift. The best of surprises!
6. Pinning photos, postcards, pictures and pretty pieces above my desk space. It's really starting to take shape. Will blog about it soon.
7. Hello November! It's birthday month and autumn is in full swing, I love it.
8. Getting up on stage in my lecture the other day, despite some sudden nerves and negativity and giving my all on a song. Turned out to be so pleased with my performance. Some people really know what to do/say to give you that boost :)
9. Sunset's at the beach. I'll never get over it.
10. My giant oversized scarf from Accessorize. I'm obsessed with it, perfect for wrapping up in when the chill gets to you! (Although, I am aware I look like the crazy lady who brought a blanket out with her...)
What made you happy this week?

Hello! I thought I'd take my first leap into the world of fashion blogging today!
I've taken a few babysteps before with this post, but it's fo' real this time.
I've finally found someone who is a very talented photographer who is happy to help me. She's an absolute star and I can't thank her enough!
This look is just for a day in the sun, comfy and casual!

I hope you enjoyed my first fashion post, look out for my next one!

1. It's December! Therefore I can start playing christmas songs nonstop, I can wear christmas jumpers, eat loads of mince pies and just be as christmassy as possible whenever I can!
2. Buying Christmas presents for my loved ones. I love writing lists and being organised, planning what to buy each and every special person. Also, christmas hampers with homemade bits in are high on my list this year for presents for family, so browsing through blogs like Cider With Rosie & A Beautiful Mess has been lovely.
3. Having productive, yet lazy afternoons. Coffee in Caffe Nero and then a productive afternoon of me writing blog posts whilst Henry sorts out his band stuff. AND he's allowing me to listen to ONE christmas song... scrooooooge!
4. Getting the cutest reindeer stamp in my ticket en route back to Brighton on Monday.
5. Getting a free glass of champagne in L'occitane whilst christmas shopping!
6. I bought my first ever onesie... It's cute, christmassy and very cosy.
7. Making it on my uni end of term gig! Something like 300 bands auditioned, so I'm really greatful to have made it on! Get yourselves to Coalition in Brighton, Friday 13th for the gig!
8. Hearing my little brother say his one line from his Nativity play. He said it very very little enthusiasm, but it was super cute all the same.
9. Passing my first two uni assignments. Only 5% each, but every little counts!
10. Vanilla Chai tea. It's definitely a new favourite!
