Chocolate Nest Easter Treats

It's almost Easter and I think we all know what that means... chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!
Last week my best friend Livvy, and I baked 12 adorable Easter chocolate nests and so... can you guess what this post is going to be about? Today I'm going to tell you how to make 12 chocolate nests  (it's so easy!) 


What you will need:
- 6 Bars of shredded wheat
- 400g of chocolate (2 bars)
- Syrup
- Easter Decorations

1. Break the 400g of chocolate into a bowl.
2. Put the bowl over a pan of boiling water and gently stir the chocolate to melt it.
3. Once the chocolate has melted, crumble the 6 bars of shredded wheat into the bowl with the chocolate (at this point you can take the bowl of the heat).
4. Stir the wheat and chocolate to cover the wheat completely.
5. Add in a small amount of syrup (this will help it stick together).
6. Spoon the mixture into 12 (cute) cake cases and of course eat any remainders left!
7. Then, decorate, decorate, decorate... with of course easter themed treats! Add some mini eggs to create your 'proper' nest.
8. Put your nests in the fridge for about 1 hour to let them set.

Now they are ready to eat! See how easy that was?!


These are an absolute must throughout Easter and are the most scrummiest treats ever!
Have you ever made Easter nests?
HAPPY EASTER!

Moving On

Hey! 
Long time know  see  write (sorry). Before you read the actual post I have some news! 
I have now created a YouTube Channel so click here to be taken over to my channel. I already have a couple videos uploaded and I am loving making YouTube videos so make sure you go and subscribe! 
Anyway, today's post is a little bit different to all my others so grab a drink and enjoy!



I feel like there comes a time in most peoples lives when you just wake up and have a 'lightbulb moment'. You start asking yourself questions like;
Is this normal?
Do I deserve this?
What am I doing?
Why have I put up with this so long?
Obviously, you don't just suddenly wake up and think this, there will have been a series of events leading up to these thoughts.

I've just had my 'lightbulb moment'. I realised I have been holding on to something toxic just because there was 'history' behind it. But history isn't a reason to hold on to something.

I was holding on to people who didn't bring the best out in me anymore. Not to say they didn't once before, it's just, they're going left and I'm going right, which is fine. 
I don't want to have to pretend to be something I'm not when I'm around 'friends'. I don''t want to have to filter what I say when I'm around them in fear of it getting round, I don't think that's what friendship is.
I'm fed up of putting in 110% and not getting the same back. Clearly I'm not 'cool' enough to be invited to things outside of the school halls, and I won't change who I am for people who I know don't care about me the same way I care about them. I'm just seen as a back-up for when things go wrong, and I'm done with that. 

I've given out way too many second chances.

I think it's time I distance myself and finally cut this negativity out of my life. I have had my confidence knocked down by these people for so long and for a while I lost sense of who I was. But now I've gained that sense back and I'm so ready to meet new people, and start again.
2017 is looking good.

So, this post was quite hard for me to write as it's so personal and on my blog there aren't many posts where I connect with you guys on a personal level rather than just a beauty level.
I know this post is quite vague but I might go into a bit more detail someday.

Let me know in the comments if you've ever experienced anything like this and how you dealt with it.

Until next time...
Katy xoxo

M.A.C Warm Neutral Palette Review

(From left to right: Hey/Warm Breeze/Gingersnap/Dark Brew/ Dance in the Dark/Brule/Vanilla Extract/Honey Lust/Amber Lights/Saddle/Lemon Tart/Creative Copper/Butterfudge/Divine Decadence/Unwind)

I'm writing this blog post of Friday the 13th and this is my 13th post... whshh; mind blown.

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my little corner of the internet!
So, I had been eyeing up a certain eyeshadow palette by M.A.C and I had tried out lots of different eyeshadows out in the M.A.C store so I knew a lot of them were very pigmented. When I got a M.A.C voucher for my birthday, I finally took the plunge and bought the 'Warm Neutral' palette.
So I thought I would help all of you lovely people out by reviewing this glorious palette and clarifying... is it really worth the buy?
But... before we get into the review, who noticed that I have actually stuck to one of my 17 Goals For 2017 and am actually posting on time *winkey face*.


This cost around £40 for me but I managed to get this on sale so usually this would cost £60 which is fairly expensive but as we all know, M.A.C doesn't come cheap! 

It comes with a mix of warm browns, warm creams and a lot of gold and orange-y brown. Overall, a beautiful range of warm shades. I think this palette is perfect for all seasons, you can go for a dark, autumnal look in Autumn, a warm golden look for the festive season, and a glory, bronze look for Summer and Spring!

This palette comes with 15 beautiful warm, neutral shades. 
Two of which are completely matte (Brule and Saddle)
Thirteen of which are shimmery, although some are more shimmery than others (Hey, Warm Breeze, Gingersnap, Dark Brew, Dance In The Dark, Vanilla Extract, Honey Lust, Amber Lights, Lemon Tart, Creative Copper, Butterfudge, Divine Decadence, Unwind).
My favourite from the palette would have to be Gingersnap, Dark Brew and although this is an odd mossy green shade I find it compliments my eyes so I would also say Unwind.

Overall, I found that the majority of shades were very pigmented and easy to apply and blend however a few shades weren't.
I would say all the lighter shades are incredibly pigmented and with a few quick swipes of these shades over the lid you're good to go however if you're going for more of a darker look, I found that this was a bit trickier. 
A few of the more darker shades were a lot harder to apply. They were fairly pigmented but the actual product doesn't move across the lid very easily, it tends to stick and isn't as... flexible — shall we say— as hoped but I'm sure with a good primer, this can be resolved.
Again the same goes for the matte shades. I tend to put the matte shades in the crease of my eye and then blend them out but these shades seem to stick and it becomes very hard to blend it out into a gorgeous smokey eye. But again this can be sorted with a good primer.


Overall, I think this is a pretty good palette. It isn't quite as wonderful as my Naked palette but it is definitely better than anything I have tried in the drugstore... although I have heard Revolution have great palettes.
To be quite honest, I am very happy with this palette and I know I will be getting a lot of use out of it!
I would definitely recommend this to anyone humming and harring over buying a palette.

Thank you very much for reading and I truly hope this was helpful! 
What is your favourite shade from the palette? What is your go-to, holy grail eyeshadow palette?
Until next Saturday...

17 Goals For 2017


2016 has been a pretty rough year me and I think it's been that way for everyone and I think most of us are pretty happy to see it go. To make sure I don't repeat a year like 2016 again, I have made 17 goals for 2017 and let's hope (she says with crossed fingers) that I can stick to them...

1. STICK TO A REGULAR BLOGGING SCHEDULE.
Ever since I've had my blog, I have never really stuck to an actual blogging schedule, I have just posted when I felt like posting. This year is going to be different, I am am going to upload a blog post every Saturday, and maybe a few other posts throughout the week if I feel like it. But there will always be at least one post up a week on Saturday.

2. CUT ALL NEGATIVITY OUT OF MY LIFE.
This is one of my main goals for this year. For me and many others, 2016 was a very negative year. I constantly felt like there was a big grey cloud hanging over my head. This year I am cutting all negativity and any people causing any negativity out of my life.

3. BECOME MORE ACTIVE ON MY SOCIAL MEDIA.
This goal links to my first goal. Again, ever since I've had my blog I haven't really posted that much on my Instagram or Twitter  so this year you can look forward to a hell of a lot of photos and tweets ;) 

4. RIDE MY BIKE MORE.
One of my favourite things to do is to ride my bike but for some odd reason I never seem to go out for a cycle that much. So this year I will be doing many cycle rides up and down the beach... and of course stop off for a hot chocolate along the way.

5. GROW OUT MY HAIR.
I absolutely LOVE the look of long, wavy hair and I've always wanted to have hair like the girls on tumblr but every time I start growing out, I always get bored and end up cutting it off into a messy lob. Which does look nice but I really want to try out having long hair. I'm already about halfway to where I want to be.

6. KEEP MY ROOM TIDY.
Okay, so my room always seems to get quite messy, I literally don't even know how it happens, but, it does. 2017 is the year I am going to  get everything all neat and organised again and that includes trying to keep my room tidy. Please remind me of this one, I have a feeling I'm going to forget this one!

7. FASHION.
Recently I have really been getting into my fashion, however it is veerrryy different to what everyone wears at my school so as you can imagine, on mufti days, I stick out like a sore thumb. Although I love my fashion and I feel like I can conquer the world when I'm wearing something I like, sometimes I can feel a little self-conscious as my outfits are marmite (you either love it or hate it). However, feeling self-conscious is no more!

8. GET OUT THE HOUSE MORE.
Throughout 2016, I didn't really go out that much with my friends or on my own. This year I am going to arrange things with the people that make me happy or if I need a bit of me-time, just go sit in a coffee shop and read my book... or write a blog post.

9. SPEND MORE TIME WITH MY FAMILY.
Linking to my last goal, I haven't really spend enough time with my family this year, just little things like going out for a meal, or sitting in the same room together, I've let work stress me out too much and so I've missed out on making great memories. This leads me onto my next point.

10. DON'T LET WORK TAKE OVER.
2016 has been one of the hardest years, work-wise and it's safe to say that I have struggled. I got too stressed out and let it take over my life. When I get stressed I don't think straight meaning I can't get much work done. This year I am going to take breaks as I didn't last year. I'm going to take time out for me.

11. SPEND MORE TIME WITH MY DOG.
I know this sounds bad. It sounds like I completely neglected him last year which I didn't. I do spend lots of time with my dog but not as much as I used to and I want things to go back to the way they were. We used to play for hours and I used to go on every walk but because I got so stressed I used to just skip the walks which I'm not going to do this year.

12. WORK-OUT.
I've always been awful at working out. I do P.E at school... only because I have to, I windsurf throughout spring and summer and I sometimes do yoga but I'm not very good at regularly working out. Now, I'm going to work out at least every weekend... I suspect that this won't last very long haha.

13. SKIN-CARE ROUTINE.
My skin-care routine has always been... okay, but never amazing. I'm going to look after my skin a bit more this year, so if you have any good skincare products that you are dying to share then just comment below because I'm on a hunt.

14. IMPROVE MY POSTURE.
As I am very tall for my age, I'm constantly looking down to talk to people, and bending over to do my work, my posture is getting pretty bad. I am going to make an effort to stand up straight with my shoulders back and chin tall.

15. BUILD UP MY CONFIDENCE.
2016 wasn't the best year for me and my confidence kind of hit rock bottom and I do know that, that comes with being a teenager. I'm going to work on myself and become of proud of who I am and stop caring about what other people think.

16. MAKE NEW FRIENDS.
With it being a new year I think it's fairly fitting to meet new people and make new friends (maybe I'll even make some blogging buddies, haha). I'm not sure where I'm going to meet new people but who knows, maybe I'll meet a nice person while drinking hot chocolate in a cute coffee shop and then start talking about our favourite PLL episodes (yes, I did just drop in a mention about PLL, because as you all know, I am obsessed with PLL).

17. BE POSITIVE.
2016 has been very negative and grey. I have felt down pretty much the whole year. This year, I am going to think positively about everything and try to remember that,
for every negative, there are at least three positives.

So there we have it! All my 17 goals for 2017. Well done if you made it through the whole post because it was very long! 
If you made it this far then comment what your main goal is for 2017 below. And do you think anything should stay in 2016? *cough the dab cough*.

See you next Saturday!

Christmas is Coming!

I hope you like the rather lovely candid (and this was actually candid, not 'posed' candid, haha) photo of my mum!


It's the first of December, woo yeah! 
I think it's safe to say that we can definitely start getting into the Christmas-y spirit... although I have been in the Christmas-y spirit since the end of August (ridiculous, right?).

A couple nights ago the 'Coca-Cola' van visited my town, and of course, I took my wonderful camera because I wanted to share the experience with all of you and hope to get you into a festive mood if aren't in one already!
Up until this year I didn't know that the Coca-Cola vans existed, I just thought they were used for the Christmas adverts for Coke, but then a friend of mine (also a Christmas crazy person, like me) was discussing Christmas with me and told me that visiting the van was a family tradition of hers and I thought that was amazing! I wanted a Coca-Cola van tradition! So, I spoke to my parents and they weren't feeling very festive and thought this would be a brilliant opportunity to get into the festive spirit! It was definitely a fusion of festivity and I would definitely recommend going! The van is still touring to a couple of towns and you can find out if your town hasn't been visited yet on the Coca-Cola website... but if not, there's always next year!

I decided to wrap up nice and warm and cosy to go to this event because it was absolutely freezing! Minus two degrees! It's definitely Winter now! 
I wore:
Bobbly hat : New Look
Scarf : Primark
Jumper : TopShop
Coat : New Look
Disco Pants : American Apparel
Shoes : Converse

I hope you enjoyed this mid-week blog post! I thought it would be nice for the first of December!
When do you start feeling festive? Are you also a Christmas crazy person?
And remember 'Holidays are coming', until next time...

Ps. I promise this isn't sponsored by Coke... although it does look like it! 
Pps. I would like to thank the girl who let me use her hands as a model for my photograph ... you had some pretty cool gloves!

The ULTIMATE Christmas Playlist



Christmas is fast approaching and it's getting to that time of year when we can get our Christmas jumpers out of the closet and start getting into the Christmas-y spirit!
The way to do that? Christmas music! And if you haven't created your Christmas playlist (cause you've got a busy life to lead!), don't worry, I've got you covered!

I've created the ULTIMATE Christmas playlist on my Spotify (katymbates - cheeky self promo) and I thought you'd all love to have a quick listen, so here you go!
Put the fire on, get cosy, get a hot chocolate and have a Christmas dance party!



I hope you enjoyed my ULTIMATE Christmas playlist! Let me know if I've missed out any VITAL songs. This year I have been loving 'Christmas in the Sand' by Colbie Caillat and 'Christmas the Whole Year Round' by Sabrina Carpenter although my all-time favourite has to be 'The Fairytale of New York' by the Pogues.

What's your favourite Christmas song?

Until next time...

August Beauty Favourites

Hello my fellow blog lovers!
It's September... which means that August has sadly come to an end, but that does mean a monthly favourites post is due, don't you agree? Throughout August I have been loving a few beauty products that I thought I would share with you!
Before you get into reading this fabulously, wonderful blog post (I hope) I just would like to point out that this is actually a collar with my ever so delightful internet friend, Sophia! Her blog is truly wonderful and so well-written it's definitely worth the read! So, once you have read this blog post make sure you head over to her blog for the exact same post only from her point of view:

Lips:
Rimmel 15th Anniversary by Kate - My Nude
Some of you may recognise this lipstick from my last post so if you do then you will know that I have been LOVING this lipstick throughout summer! It's a beautiful pink nude, perfect for pale-ish skin. This lipstick is super moisturising and the consistency is very creamy very much like a lip butter, any lipsticks from this collection are worth a try!

M.A.C - OBI Orange
In summer I do love my nudes but I also absolutely love to wear oranges and corals. I have especially been loving this lipstick by M.A.C. This lipstick is a creme sheen so it's incredibly moisturising and even though it looks amazingly bright it's not blindingly bright because it is a creme sheen (but don't get me wrong it still is vibrant). This has been my go to lipstick throughout August as you can see by the rather ugly indent in the lipstick... hey, at least it's well loved!

Bourjois Shine Edition - 26
This has been my holy grail lipstick this summer! I cannot tell you how much I am in love with this beautiful creation, haha! This is basically a very nude, nude lipstick... and what I mean by that is it is literally the colour of my lips but if I just whack a bit of this on it completely transforms my lips and makes them look less... dead! The reason why it's not as bright as it looks is because it is a extreme creme sheen, I guess you could say and as you can see this lipstick is very well loved too. The only thing I do not like about this lipstick is that the packaging is just too big for the lipstick. For how big the packaging is there is barely any actual product in there but other than that it is pure perfection!

Eyes:

As it's summer I haven't really been wearing much on my eyes as I usually like to keep my make-up very light and natural (the bold colours are for Autumn and Winter) but there are two products that I have been using a heck of a lot throughout August.

L'Oreal - False Lash Telescopic Mascara
I have been using this mascara almost every day of August and that's saying something for me as I've always found it incredibly hard to find good mascaras. I've only ever found one; the Roller Lash mascara by Benefit but I think it's safe to say that this mascara just beats Benefit's well-known product. It's incredibly lengthening AND separates my lashes so well! I usually just put on two layers of this mascara and I'm good to go!

NYX Extreme Shine Eye Liner - Azure & Purple Blaze
I'm quit surprised that I picked these products up as both eye liners are very bright and very outgoing and in Summer I tend to just stick to mascara and that's it for eyes but even in Winter this is quite outgoing for me. These eyeliners are basically just a glittery coloured crayon (the best way I could describe it) and I picked up two colours; a purple and a light blue. I usually only put this on my waterline and I usually start off with the purple in the outer corners of my eye and bring that to the middle of my eye and then blend in the blue in to the purple and bring it down the inner half of my eye and believe me it looks gorgeous! These claim to be waterproof and I promise you, they are! I will definitely be picking up more of these!

Fragrance
 
Zoella Beauty Body Mist - Let's Spritz
I only got this fragrance in June and I think you can tell that it's pretty well loved! I've been using this body mist every day throughout August! I just think this is such a summery scent. It's very fruity and tropical but also very sweet so if you're a sucker for more musky scents then I'm not sure this perfume is for you, but, I personally love this... and can I just say the packaging is just absolutely to die for!

The Body Shop - Japanese Cherry Blossom
Again, I think this is a very summery scent. It's actually very similar to the Zoella Body Mist as I am one heck of a lover for sweet scents. I feel like you can only really use this in Spring and Summer as in Autumn and Winter I prefer more spicy and musky fragrances so I may have to put this one away as we enter the colder seasons but I love it nonetheless!

I really hope you enjoyed this blog post! I know I didn't have that many favourites but I thought it was better to have less and go into full detail than have loads and just say one line about each product because what help would that be? I have loved all of these products throughout August and would recommend them to anybody!
That's it for now and I'll see you very soon for some very autumnal posts... ooo, exciting!

A Trip to Brighton | My Day Diary

Hello my lovelies! How are you all on this beautiful, sunny day?
Today I have a bit of a different post, something I haven't done before...
my first day diary post.

Last week I went on a trip to Brighton with my mum and younger brother (oh, joy) and thought I would show you what we got up to (and when I say we, I mean me and my mum because my brother spent the whole day trying to catch pokemon) so enjoy!
*Disclaimer: I am deeply apologetic for the quality of these photo's... I forgot my camera battery and had to take them on my phone*

This was my OOTD. It was rather hot so I wore an outfit that was very light and breezy:
Top : New Look
Shorts : New Look
Cardigan : Hollister
Shoes : Converse
Bag : Jack Wills

First of all we decided to walk down all the lovely lanes and do a little bit of shopping and window browsing. They felt almost like secret passages, the lanes are definitely my favourite part of Brighton!

As we continued through the lanes we found this lovely homeware shop called 'England at Home', it was beautiful! Very vintage and very me! I'd never seen this shop before then so I was rather excited to make a new homeware shop discovery because being a girl who is obsessed with homeware, I'm always looking for new shops!

Is it just me or does this lane remind you slightly of Diagon Alley from Harry Potter?

We then had a quick stop at costa to cool down (because it was 24 flipping' degrees celsius, not that i'm complaining) before carrying on exploring the wonders of Brighton. I had a caramel frappe as per usual, my brother had the peach lemonade which I should have got because it was absolutely delicious and my mum had an iced mocha.

We then carried on through the lanes and came across this rather cute cafe, I can't quite remember the name. We didn't have time to go in but the next time I go to Brighton I will definitely pop into this cafe for an ice cream!

After walking through the lanes for a long while, we came across some bigger brand names and decided to do a little bit of shopping... whoops!
We first went to M.A.C and I didn't pick anything up this time but I did love browsing through the lipsticks which could be mistaken for a rainbow with the amount of colour choices they have.
Next was Ted Baker and I bought a gorgeous shirt; collared of course. I will put a full photo of the shirt up on my instagram, so make sure you are following that.
Then we went to Lush and I picked up the Mask of Magnanimity face mask as I have been breaking out a lot recently and acne has been rather bad and I was recommended to try this so if you would like a review just let me know!
Finally we went to Jack Wills just for a quick browse so I didn't pick anything up but there were lots of lovely pieces that I might pick up soon... haha!





We then decided to roam around the famous Brighton Pier! It reminded me so much of San Francisco. And may I just say the view of the sea from the pier was beautiful!


And lastly to finish of the wonderful day out in the beautiful Brighton, we decided to have a walk along the pebbly beach.

Overall, I really did like Brighton and would love to go back for a longer visit. I especially loved the little lanes and the independent cafes and shops!

I really hope you enjoyed this post, I know it was VERY long so I hope it didn't bore you too much! Let me know what you thought of it!
See you very soon!

Rimmel 15th Anniversary Lipstick by Kate

Hello my lovely blog readers! How are you on this fine Monday?
Today I thought I would review a fairly new collection of lipsticks that has just hit the drugstores and been brought to my attention... the Rimmel 15th Anniversary Lipsticks by Kate Moss.

There are 6 lipsticks in the collection; three reds (Obviously! This is Kate Moss we're talking about!) and three nudes. Now I don't have all of them, I only have four but I will explain what the other two lipsticks look like.
So I picked up a few of these lipsticks for a fairly affordable price of £6.49 each.
Anyway, on with the review!



Muse Red
A beautiful red, not too bright but definitely not dull. This is absolutely perfect Christmas... yes, I am talking about Christmas in August! I think this red would look amazing on pale skin especially.


Retro Red
A stunning red with purple-y blue-y undertones. This is my definitely favourite red from the collection. I think this shade is perfect just as we're coming up to Autumn. Again, I think this shade would look amazing on anyone with fair skin.

Idol Red
This is the last red in the collection (that I don't have) and its very similar to 'Muse Red' but 'Idol Red' its slightly brighter with slight blue undertones. It was just a bit bright for me but if you love your bold lips then I'm sure you would love it! It definitely gives off a Taylor Swift vibe!


Boho Nude
This is the darkest nude out of the three. On pale skin it is less of a nude and more like 'Velvet Teddy' by 'M.A.C' so I think this shade would look amazing on more tanned skin. If you love your brown nudes then you will love this colour.


My Nude
This is my favourite nude from the collection. It's very girly and very pink. I think you could wear this shade all year long, it works for any season but I have to say, this has been my go to lipstick this summer!

Rock n' Roll Nude
This is the last nude in the collection. It's ever so slightly pinky and it reminds me a lot of 'Creme Cup' by 'M.A.C'. I didn't pick this one up because it is very light and it washed me out slightly and I am already quite pale so I didn't want to look dead! So I think this shade is definitely for someone with more of a tan.


I think the packaging of this collection is pure perfection! As a girl who is obsessed with rose gold I'm sure you could imagine how excited I was to see these in my local drugstore! These are actually currently on display in my room!

The actual quality of the lipsticks are incredible! They are incredibly creamy and light, leaving your lips feeling smooth and soft. The consistency of the products, again, is fabulous! They glide on to your lips incredibly easily. The consistency is very much like a creamy lip butter.

Throughout the day I would say I only have to re-apply these lipsticks once which in my opinion is incredible! I re-apply the lipstick after lunch and even then the pigmentation of the lipstick isn't completely lost just slightly faded but, me being a perfectionist, I have to re-apply it to perfection!

Overall I would rate this collection:
4.9/5

I really hope you enjoyed this review! I had a lot of fun writing this and taking the photos for this blog post!
I'll see you very soon with some very exciting blog posts *insert smirky face emoji*

Take A Break | Motivational Monday #2

Hello fellow blog lovers!
So it's been a while since I've posted, I guess you could say that I took a short break. Which got me thinking about the perfect subject to write about for today's Motivational Monday!
Taking a Break.
So as some of you may know I have a YouTube channel which I actually created before I started this blog but recently I haven't found making YouTube videos as enjoyable as I used to, so I've decided to take a break from making YouTube videos. 
I don't know how long this break will be; maybe a month, two months or a year or so but I just need to take a break.
I've decided to focus on my blog because I am absolutely loving writing blog posts at the moment (and I hope you are enjoying reading them, haha).

So my point is that it's okay to take a break if you need one. 
Remember breaks aren't permanent so you don't have to stop doing what you're doing forever.
I know one day that I will definitely go back to making videos but at the moment I want to focus on my blog because it's what I am really enjoying right now. So I guess this coincides with my last 'Motivational Monday', 'Do More Of What Makes You Happy'. 
Only do things that make you happy and the things that don't then just take a break from it, you can always go back to it later but if you don't want to then don't.
Taking a break is not a crime and its very much needed!

So for those of you that watch my YouTube videos I just wanted to let you know that this is just a break and I will be going back to it but not for a while. I am just going to try and make my blog better and more consistent posts.

I hope you all enjoyed this post, I know its not the best but I wanted to get something up! I have a few very exciting posts coming up throughout August!

Remember to take a break! Especially through summer!

See you soon!
