First Post- A Dedication

For a few years now I've had plans to start my own blog. I love reading fashion and beauty blogs, and often feel inspired to start my own.

The issue has been motivation. That is until now............

 I wanted to write my first post today following the funeral of someone I loved very much. A couple of weeks ago we lost my (not officially, but as close as) mother in law. It was very sudden and its been a massive shock.

I started going out with my partner Mat nearly 11 years ago. His Mom Brenda welcomed me into the family and adopted me as a surrogate daughter. We had our up and downs, but we became really close, and she has helped me through some difficult times.

She always believed in me, and encouraged me to do the things I wanted to do. She knew I wanted to start a blog, and now feels like the right time.

So my first post is a dedication to her. I want my blog to be a reflection of me, and she was a massive part of my life.

Brenda's passing has made me realise that life is too short to put off doing the things you want to do.

She loved the sea, and I'll always think of her when I visit the seaside.

So here goes, my blog will be full of all the things I love- Fashion, Nail Varnish, Photography and Art.

I'm hoping for happier times ahead, and I'm excited to finally start my own blog.
