Today I’m so excited to introduce you to all the wonderful blogs and bloggers who’ve been hanging out in my sidebar during the month! Because really and truly, they are such a lovely bunch! I’ve had so much fun getting to know each of them in turn, and adding them to my Bloglovin’ reading list- and I can’t recommend highly enough that you do the same! So if you’re in the market for some wonderful new reads, or just fancy doing something this Thursday that isn’t necessarily work, then why not have a browse of the lovely blogs linked below! Happy reading! :)
Seeking Victory
Nicole’s blog is such a lovely one. It’s her writing that I think I love the most. It’s so friendly and eloquent all at once, and always makes me feel as though I’m catching up with a friend when I read one of her posts. Nicole lives in Melbourne, and on her blog she shares recipes, lifestyle posts, restaurant reviews- and I’ve been devouring each and every one of her posts as soon as they go live. Seeking Victory is just such a beautifully friendly, charming blog, and one that I think you’re going to love getting to know better.
Favourite post of the past month? Pretty Parcels of Chicken (because it’s kind of similar to my favourite spinach and feta pasties, but with the inspired addition of chicken! Amazing!)
The What Now Blog
Louise’s blog is ever such a lovely one. She began her blog with the intention of trying to figure out what she wanted to do with her life, and I for one just hope she continues to share her lovely posts! On her blog, Louise shares lifestyle posts, recipes, and thoughts on recent adventures. I especially loved her review of her visit to the English School of Falconry, and her incredible looking recipe for chargrilled chicory and little gem salad with caper berries! Her amazing does that sound? A blog to add to your reading list, for sure! :)
Favourite post of the past month? An afternoon with birds of prey (because Louise’s photos are too amazing!)
The Peppermint Pencil
I’ve just loved reading Anya’s blog through June. It was new to me last month, and had become a staple read ever since. Her photographs are just gorgeous (check those caramel-coconut milkshake photos if you need proof!), I adore the way she writes, and her posts are warm and personable. This month Anya’s posted a summer to-do list (you know how much I do love a list) photos of beautiful places visited, and basically just stolen my heart with every single post.
Favourite post of the past month? Summer Bucket List (because not only is Anya’s list a great one, but her styling and photography in the post is amazing too!)
This Particular
I just LOVE the way Ala writes! There’s something about her ‘voice’ that I just find so engaging, and makes me want to read post after post. This month, Ala’s shared her gorgeous recipe for spaghetti bolognese (thumbs up for extra-garlicky ragu), found treasures at a car boot sale, and attended cookery school! And she’s shared the lot in the form of beautiful photos, and happy stories! It’s a blog I know you’ll just love :)
Favourite post of the past month? What’s for lunch today? Sub Cult | Soho. (because reading about what people eat just never gets old, and I love the concept of this post!)
Daydreams of Summertime
If you’ve not yet discovered Sarah’s beautiful blog, then you’re in for a treat! She deserves about 100x the following she has if you ask me, and I know you’re going to love reading her gorgeous posts! Not only is Sarah so lovely and likeable and wonderful to read, but she also climbs glaciers, takes incredible photographs, and wears dresses covered in lemons! If those aren’t reason enough to go and check out her blog, I don’t know what is! You’ll lose yourself in Daydreams of Summertime, so stop by there armed with tea and snacks ;)
Favourite post of the past month? Weekend scenes (because Sarah’s photos make me swoon)
Hecticophilia
Jesse’s blog was new to me in June, though she and I have been working together on various bits for a couple of months now. And I can confirm that her blog is just as lovely as she is herself! Hecticophilia (a name meaning ‘a tendency towards the wild and chaotic’) is a place where Jesse documents her exciting life in London, sharing news of pop up events, her recent adventures, and (my favourite!) snippets of conversations she hears on her travels! One you’ll love to read, especially if you enjoy getting a peek into another person’s life :)
Favourite post of the past month? Overheard. (because it’s just so fascinating, and feeds my nosiest tendencies!)
Prattle and Froth
I love reading Ann’s lovely blog. It’s full of life’s simple pleasures, and you know how much I’m fond of those! :) Ann is expecting her first baby at the moment (so excited for her!) and I’ve been loving reading posts about her pregnancy (especially her top ten ice lolly list, girl after my own heart!). I find myself checking in on her blog each day for a catch up, because her posts are such a pleasure to read. A blog I wholeheartedly recommend adding to your reading list, especially since the next few months are set to be so exciting as Ann and her husband become parents for the first time! :)
Favourite post of the past month? Top 10 ice lollies of the 90s- a pregnant ladies guide (because though I’m not pregnant, I never need an excuse to eat an ice lolly!)
One in Every Colour
It’s been such a pleasure getting to know Becca and her lovely blog this month! One in Every Colour is a lifestyle blog, showcasing snippets from Becca’s recent goings on (this month she met the sweetest piglets at a farm in Cirencester), her current inspiration and favourite finds from around the web, and even product reviews too! I especially love Becca’s ‘Weekly Thoughts’ posts, because they give an insight into the day to day goings on in her life that I so love to read about in a blog :)
Favourite post of the past month? Weekly Thoughts #4 (because it’s like catching up with a friend, and that makes me happy!)
Cocktails and Caroline
Caroline’s blog has become a favourite read of mine over the past few month’s since she’s been advertising here. It’s always such a fun read! In June, Caroline’s been sharing delicious recipes on her blog (chocolate mousse with summer fruits, anyone?) sailed away to Rhodes (and shared the most gorgeous photos!) and eaten delicious (healthy) grilled food at Q Grill in Camden. I can’t recommend that you start reading Cocktails and Caroline enough- especially if you enjoy living vicariously through blogs, and turning green with envy at least once a week! ;)
Favourite post of the past month? My Summer Fruit Chocolate Glasses (because hello! It’s fruit and chocolate! What’s not to love?!)
A Simple Elegance
Oh, it’s been such a pleasure getting to know Arielle’s blog this month. Her username was one that was so familiar to me already (she leaves the sweetest blog comments, don’t you know!) and so it was lovely to put a face to a name when I started reading A Simple Elegance! Arielle’s blog is beautiful- a celebration of life’s beautiful moments, and a place to share her thoughts and feelings and stories from her lovely life. And all bundled up in a a gorgeous little blog design! It’s one I know I’ll be reading for many months to come, that’s for sure.
Favourite post of the past month? Ten Simple Things- Celebration (because aside from the loveliness of the post, those photos are to die for!)
Wander to Wonder
It’s been so lovely having Miho’s blog back in my sidebar this month! Her posts are always such a pleasure to read. In June, Miho’s been sharing some gorgeous photos from her adventures in London (check those beautiful sunset snapshots!), a recipe for bruschetta pasta (which looked divine) and reviews and photos from a visit to KERB food festival. I’ll warn you now, that post isn’t one to read first thing in the morning! You’ll wind up with a serious craving for triple cooked chips and salted caramel ice-cream quicker than you can say ‘street feast’! ;)
Favourite post of the past month? KERB Street Food. (because photos of food are my jam, and that’s that.)
Coco & Mingo
I’ve been crushing on Jessica’s blog for so long now. I absolutely adore her clean, simple aesthetic, and the way her blog posts seem so effortlessly cool. Particular favourites are Jessica’s perfectly collated style posts, which make me want to dash to the shops and buy up everything she’s recommended! It’s the sort of blog you’ll find yourself visiting each and every day, merely for the joy of bringing a little bit of beauty and minimalist cool into your life! Add it to your reading list right this second, okay? :)
Favourite post of the past month? Loving this week (because it’s just *so* aesthetically pleasing!)
