Bloglovin’

Google reader, as I am sure you have heard by now is closing down.  I’ve only just started this blogging thang, but bloglovin‘ has been a lifeline for me.

I highly recommend it, I think you get a better idea of the blogs I follow than my half finished Links page here too. And you can follow this blog too.

I find it really useful having the browser button, so I can see new posts in a glance, and also divide up what I follow into different categories. I’ve a terrible memory so this constant reminder makes it easy for me to catch up where I left off on blogs.

Do you use bloglovin? Or something else – if so what? I’m always fascinated with how people organise their online life.

Follow my blog with bloglovin‘

And so it begins…

Right, hello!

As you can see this is all new for me.  I’m not sure why I’m doing this, I guess I feel like it is the right time.  I’ve had a couple of personal blogs previously, but I haven’t done anything with them in such a long time.

I am hoping this blog will personally help me accept myself, and my body. To be more positive about the outfits I put together, and to have more pride in them (before I slip into a never ending cycle of multiple layered/paint covered horrifically uncoordinated outfits that I work in!).  This I’m hoping will create quite a separation/outlet for me – giving me focus outside of work.

On the wider scale (that’s not a pun on being a chubster, btw!), I’m hoping through my journey of style and self acceptance that I can inspire others to feel that way too – just like the way some of the blogs/bloggers have hugely inspired and helped myself.

I have lots of exciting regular features and the like I’m hoping to do on here, but this is just an initial HELLO WORLD.

Watch this space.
