For the last year or so I have been questioning my blogging choices. I love it but it’s changed so much. People no longer want to see a blog post with a nail polish review and I no longer want to write those sort of posts. But what do I want to write?
I started my blog a long time ago, I was 17 or 18, still taking my A-Levels and the whole blogosphere was a new thing. I am so proud that it has become my full-time and although I love it, I am also a little out of love. I’m really struggling with a direction for this blog and I think you’ll probably get a little less beauty.
I am no longer the 18-year-old girl that could only afford drugstore lipstick and Barry M nail polishes, although I still love these things there’s so much more I want to share and I’m going to start writing A Little Obsessed about whatever I fancy writing about. I think you’ll get the usual beauty posts, teamed with a little bit of fashion, a dash of travel and all held together with my thoughts and experience- and I hope you’ll stay for the ride.
This blog is going to longer be defined as a beauty blog but a whatever-I-feel-like-writing-about blog. I feel like we’ve all grown up over the last seven years and hopefully, we’ll all enjoy the change. I just want to fall in love with blogging again, properly. And I’m really hoping this change will help as I’m not okay with only blogging once a month. It is also worth noting though that I love YouTube and I want to make lots more content there too and any support you can show there would mean a whole lot to me!(link here)
Let’s talk a little about my outfit from last week…
Now, the reason I am not a proper fashion blogger (amongst other reasons) is that I just can’t get outfit photos shot quickly enough and rely on my boyfriend with zero photo experience to take all my images. I am actually not sure any of these items are in stock but fingers crossed as I love each individual item in the look.
I’ve been wearing this grey coat all winter and I love it! It’s perfect to dress up any outfit, it’s long enough that it keeps me quite warm and the colour goes with almost everything. It is from New Look but no longer available but they have this s.
This is really versatile and I think I’ll be wearing it into spring and summer, the and has been getting a lot of love recently, I love the harness detail and it was super affordable from ASOS in their bigger bust range.
Onto accessories, love these shoes however I get awful back pain wearing them, there is something about chunky heels that my back doesn’t like. Stilettos are fine- chunky, usually more comfortable heels, it hates, therefore I’m sadly going to have to retire these, even though I love them!
And finally, my new Marc B bag which someone initially thought was Chanel! I love a good quilted back, there so classic and timeless! This one is really affordable and the perfect size for everyday use.
I haven’t blogged in so long that pressing the publish button is making me far more anxious than it should, but hopefully I’ll be back soon!
Let me know what your favourite pieces in your wardrobe have been this winter in the comments.
I love this look and I’ve been eyeing up these heels for a few weeks now – I bought the lower barely there marble style ones just before Christmas. Favourite pieces for this winter have definitely been jumper dresses and sock boots – dressing them up or down is so easy and they’re so damn comfy!

My outdoor Jack Wolfskin puffer jacket has been my most worn item. Not very chic, but necessary to keep me warm.

Amazing post sweetie. You should absolutely write what you want to write about and not feel obliged to write the same things you did 7/8 years ago. Your blog is a product of YOU so of course it should grow with you. Can’t wait to read all your new content, and as always – I love all your YouTube videos. Lots of love honey, you always do so amazing! xxx
