How late to the party am I with this one?! Please forgive me 2017. Anywho, I read a lot of blogs… A LOT. And although I cannot always comment on them or follow the blogger on every social platform I do still read most posts they publish. So, what better way to kick off January than to share my loves with you guys, and also to let them know they rock and that if they ever stop blogging I will hunt them down?
LAURZRAH
I have loved Laura, and her blog, pretty much since the beginning, she’s a keeper that one. For a start her photography is absolute goals and I hate her for it. Secondly she has a makeup collection I would kill for. And most importantly she writes so well. Despite posting mainly about beauty you’re never bored of a single post; they’re well written, concise and engaging. Plus, Laura herself is an absolute babe and kinda funny… I just can’t fault her.

Bo writes about so many topics, and writes them all equally well. Her blog is a mix of beauty, fashion and general life. Her writing is funny, compelling and always has me smiling. Bo’s pics are also AMAZING. Seriously, go stalk her Instagram for some serious envy.
HEART SHAPED BONES
Best name for a blog ever, hella jealous. I adore Jess and her style, she’s like everything I want to be when I grow up, except I’m older than her & could never be that awesome. She has an amazing blog with lifestyle and fashion, plus she’s recently launched her own blogging zine, which you can read about here. For me the attraction to her blog is that it’s different but not trying to be, and I love that authenticity.

Can we just at how gorgeous Lucy is, and how amazing her outfit shots are? She’s everything I would be today if I was 10 years younger and a bit slimmer haha. I get serious envy over her outfit shoots as they’re simple looking yet so striking. Her style is amazing and there was a post back in November I think with the most beautiful silver mini skirt… GOALS.
CATTITUDE & CO
This is a surprising one for me, as I find myself disagreeing with Tara more than I do agreeing with her at times. However, that’s what makes the world go round and a better place – opinions. I love that Tara is passionate about things, that she tries to make a difference and that she uses her voice. I don’t always have to agree with that voice to appreciate it. I find myself reading her posts and either wholeheartedly agreeing or debating them in my head; this isn’t a bad thing, a writer who can invoke a response is doing a great job.
Sometimes I can tell from a post title I won’t agree with it, but I read it anyway as I like to know how other people see things. I like to know what makes them think that way, and Tara explains all this, she has a view point and doesn’t shy away from sharing it even if it goes against the norm. We need more people like Tara, that stand up for what they believe in & inspire others.
