This is probably the most emotional post I’ve ever written but having said that it’s one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done. Here’s my London Marathon story…
Now that we’re properly emerged in Spring I’ve been looking at the new trends to share with you guys for the months ahead and today I’m going through the must-haves in the way of handbags in this very budget friendly post.
Remember guys, this is my job at the end of the day, which involves working with selected brands and being gifted with lots of lovely things so don't feel under pressure to keep up with the bubble of social media or with me, it's not fair on yourself. I will always link affordable alternatives for my designer items but I would also like to encourage you to be wise with what you buy (for both yours and the environments sake), we are all responsible for our actions and it's not about cutting out everything that we enjoy, it's just a case of being more mindful and more aware 🌎 💗 #secondhandbutgrand ALL THE LINKS (In order of appearance) Most of the below links are AFFILIATE LINKS and by making a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission, which means that we can keep creating content for you guys to watch.
