AD: Morning coffee just got an upgrade ☕️✨ I’m loving the swanky new NESCAFÉ @DolceGustoUK Genio S Plus machine. As well as a huge range of barista-quality recyclable (🥳) pods (including fancy teas and hot chocolates!), the machine is designed to make your coffee exactly how you like it. Adjust the size and even the heat - hello iced coffee on tap 😍 - in every cup, press the Espresso Boost option if you’re REALLY in need of a caffeine fix and with eco mode, you know it’s never using electricity when inactive. How do you take yours? #DolceGustoUK #GenioSPlus

Started the day with some sunshine and fresh air 🌞 It’s the first day of autumn today, it looks like the nice weather is about to go and as of tomorrow, there’s only 100 days left of 2020! I think few of us will be sad to see the end of this year. What would you like to do with the next 3 months? I set a goal this morning to go for a walk every day as that was really good for my mental health when we did it in lockdown. That, and 100 days of just being really freaking kind to yourself because it’s been a 🤯🍆 if a year...

She’s wearing a short blue denim skirt that she definitely doesn’t fit anymore, a blue floral blouse and white trainers. She’s holding a lemonade can and looks pretty happy with the sunny start to the day!]

AD: Womxn’s bodies go through so much. Blood, discharge, sweat, leaks. We all have our own relationships with our bodies, reproductive systems and underwear. I’m such a fan of @modibodi and their approach to inclusivity, wellbeing and busting the taboo subject of bodily fluids. They’ve created a video to celebrate and normalise - ‘The New Way to Period’ - which you can watch by swiping across. Let me know how it makes you feel! Have you tried Modibodi underwear for periods, discharge or maternity? Pop any questions about them below and I’ll do my best! 👙

The sun is shining, the tank is clean and we’re off in search of Daim cake and nifty Swedish storage solutions this morning. But mainly Daim cake.

INSTAGRAM INCLUSIVITY! A no brainer to make everyone’s experience as easy as possible, right? 👏🏼
⠀
I asked what would Instagram a more welcoming place for those who are differently abled. Here is a collection of super easy to follow accessibility tips!
⠀
Now you know how, it’s so simple to do. There’s no excuse not to be as inclusive as possible and citing time or effort is a sure fire way to make those who need it feel left out and devalued.

AD 🌻 Happy Friday! If Boy Beth asks, I didn't choose a Belfast sink so that I could fill it with flowers for Instagram...👀 The ultimate way to say 'I love you' or 'I'm here' or just 'here's a whacking great bouquet of sunflowers to brighten up your week', especially when hugs are off limits. What are your favourite flowers? 🌸🌾 @HowFlowersDoThat #FillTheDistanceWithBeauty #FillTheDistance

Let’s chat weddings! There’s a new post on my

Let’s chat weddings! There’s a new post on my blog (link in bio) - 5 reasons to have an intimate wedding. It explains a little more of our thought process and motivations behind changing our plans. Have a read and tell me what you think! This isn’t a Small Weddings vs Big Weddings because both are great! Rather, it’s about doing exactly what’s right for you (and your fiancé, I suppose 😉) and not succumbing to the pressure. Whether that’s of the Pinterest board, family/friends or simply what society has always told you a wedding ‘should’ look like. It’s why my number one advise for the newly engaged is...pause. Chill, list your options, sleep on it (a lot), mull it over and then go with your gut. It’s so easy to get wrapped up in the initial buzz! What did your wedding look like, or what will it look like? Would you change anything retrospectively? 👰🏼🤍✨

AD - discount! A full week with our new kitchen and we’re both so thrilled with it. It’s been such a labour of love with many a hiccup along the way. One of which was with our worktops; the laminate I’d picked (and hadn’t actually seen/felt first) just wasn’t right. Thankfully we were able to upgrade to this DREAMY @howdensjoinery Silestone White Arabesque Marble Effect Quartz. It’s completely elevated and completed the kitchen and I wish we’d just taken the plunge in the first place! 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3 essential tips if you’re renovating (hit save for later!):
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Budget, then budget at least an extra 20% for the unexpected...
2. Make sure you see/touch everything before it’s fitted...Get samples!
3. For kitchens especially, write down your absolute *must* haves because unless budget is limitless, you probably can’t have it all.

So in love with this cosy little space! Garden shed who? We transformed this mini outbuilding - with the help of an electrician and carpenter - and I’m so excited to finally be able to use it as my home office. Let’s place bets on time spent at the desk, and time spent curled up in that cloud of a chair though...☕️🌿

I might have peaked at Monday. Rest of the week is down hill from here. Now, Selling Sunset (just started s2). It’s everything I love and hate about LA. Here for Maya and Mary, can’t cope with Christine or Davina. What are we saying? #stillhaventfoundtheplates

Woke up with that Monday morning feeling, then remembered it’s a bank holiday! Which is just as well because I could really do with an extra day this weekend. More unpacking, cleaning and a little before of life admin ready for a new month tomorrow. Do you ever grow out of the September ‘back to school’ vibes?! Have a sudden urge to buy scented gel pens. Bedroom details all tagged - not too long ago it was Hague Blue walls, white doors and white Ikea cabinets! Amazing what a lick of paint can do...What do you think?! ☕️🥰

Home 🤍 We’ve got dust in every crevice (ours and the flats), those cupboards are currently empty and every spare corner is piled high with boxes. But we’re home. And just look at how shiny and beautiful it is! A long week ahead, but a happy one. 🔨🌿

I SAID YES TO THE DRESS 👰🏼✨ Ahhh...So exciting! @pronovias we’re *ahhhmazing* - they were all so beautiful I could’ve probably closed my eyes and pointed. I was a bit nervous about such a big shopping moment amidst pandemic but it was so smooth. Masks (though you can remove to see what you look like!), one guest (hi Mama!), sanitiser and a deep cleaned private fitting area. My personal stylist, Zoritsa, was a dream to work with and it was such a calm, stress free process. TWO MONTHS TO GO! 🤩

One for your reading list! Expectation by Anna Hop

One for your reading list! Expectation by Anna Hope is a profound, intelligent and indeed ‘razor sharp’ exploration of female friendship and the dichotomy between the lives we think we’ll lead, and the ones we do.
⠀
Cate is the new mother of a baby she didn’t plan, consumed by sleep deprivation, an unwanted move to the Kent suburbs at the bequest of a meddling mother in law and a husband who works late and sleeps in the spare room. On the surface, Hannah has it all. A high flying job, a trendy London home, a doting husband and an underwear drawer organised into matching sets. But after 3 years of failed IVF cycles and a miscarriage, she - and her marriage - are at breaking point. Lissa, a failing actress, is permanently disappointed with the state of her life.
⠀
We meet the women in their mid-30’s and jump back and forth between the ages of 12 and 44. The structure is satisfying, easy to follow and well-executed in the same way that thought and memory fragment.
⠀
Ultimately this is a book about what it means to be female in the 21st century; expectations, desires, regrets and rivalries. It’s painfully observant and stunningly intimate. One of my favourite books I’ve read this year...☕️📖 @bethsbookclub_ #bethsbookclub
