Hey guys, guess what? We made it! It’s officially the last day of 2016 and after what seems to have been a shambles of a year for the world, we have actually made it through to the very last day. This year has been pretty nuts; we made the decision to leave the EU which has caused nothing but negative backlash since June now. Donald Trump actually became President of the United States. We went through a phase of fearing killer…

ENDLESS THANK YOU’S
*Spoiler alert- if you’re not in this post, you probably won’t like this post or want to read it. Sorry* Today’s post is definitely going to be a bit of a soppy one, because it’s reached the end of the year and I feel like, after the year I’ve had, I owe a lot of people a lot of thank you’s. There’s so many people who I absolutely wouldn’t have made it through 2016 without and so I definitely need…

2016 in songs and pictures
2016 has been a very up and down year, both personally and globally. So much has happened, and I know I’m not the only one who can happily sit here and say that 2016 has definitely changed me. I’m not the same person now as I was at the start of this year! Now, as a musician myself and someone who is completely obsessed with music, I know that I definitely wouldn’t have got through this year without the help…

The 2016 Glow Up
Today, a new ‘challenge’ appeared on social media: I knew straight away I had to join in! As most of you must know by now, I’m a strong advocate of self love and over the last year my self love, as well as my self confidence, has improved and increased quite dramatically! Before 2016, I would have described my self confidence and self esteem to have been extremely low. I hated how I looked, I had no confidence in myself…

ALEX
My best pals Bobbie, Alec, BJ and Carda (excluding Pops and Abs- your time will come!) have had a unique blog post all about how fabulous and wonderful they are, so I thought it was about time I dedicated one to my best girl, Alex. I’ve known Alex for ages, at least a couple of years, but it was only at the start of this year that we got to know each other properly, actually bonding over coming out of…

The best concerts I’ve been to
Before I jump into this post can I just say how is there just over two weeks left of 2016?! This year has gone unbelievably quick and I am so proud of myself for producing a blog post every single day! Go me yay. And now to the post! I absolutely love going to concerts and gigs and festivals, its one of my favourite things to do! There’s absolutely no better feeling than hearing someone you’ve listened to for ages and absolutely love…

Shoutout to my boys
As a single girl in 2016, let me tell you it is actually incredibly difficult to get yourself a boyfriend. Myself and my friend Alex are constantly in disbelief at how badly we can be played, how straight up ridiculous some guys can be and to be honest, I know I speak for both of us when I say we are just exhausted with the whole “seeing each other slash dating” kind of thing. It’s not like I’m even asking for much!…

“You couldn’t be a model lol”
I am used to online hate. When I was younger, I had it all the time via Twitter. When I joined Tumblr, it came in thick and fast (anonymously, of course). When I signed up to Curious Cat about a month ago, it started up again. And its cool you know, it’s always stupid things like “your blog is so embarrassing lol” or messages riddled with spelling errors and grammatical mistakes and I honestly just couldn’t care less. I have…

HEIRESS LONDON
Anyone who knows me knows how down for female empowerment I am. I’m a fierce feminist, I support women doing brilliant things, donate monthly to women’s charities, speak about about women’s rights and support women running their own businesses in a world that constantly tries to suppress women and all they want to do. One of my new favourite companies that focus on female empowerment is Heiress London, a brand new clothing company that promotes the idea of women creating…

To Anne-Marie
To Anne-Marie, I will never forget the day I discovered you and your music. Scrolling through my Facebook feed, SB.TV shared your ‘Boy’ song on their page. I gave it a listen and fell in love instantly- not just with the song and with your voice, but you and your style. You were rocking a look so similar to the one I desired to achieve myself but was often mocked for. I particularly loved your big hoop earrings, an item…
