(Blogging) Links à la Mode

Just a little note today to say thank you to IFB and Victoria for including my BEACH post on their weekly Links à la Mode update last Thursday -- I'm really happy about it! 

I started this blogging journey in September last year as a creative distraction to my current long distance relationship situation but it has become so much more that that... I have developed new skills, learnt more that I realised I could in such a short period of time, "met" some really amazing people and I'm having so much fun! Being creative really is a good cure for the LDR blues :)

Below are the other lovely ladies that made the round up last week... go check 'em out :)

Good Reads

Yawn. Mid-week holidays are fantastic because, well, they’re mid-week holidays. The down side? It’s Thursday and I’m sure we’re all wishing it was the weekend! Waking up after a holiday that includes all of summers’ best aspects (warm weather, fireworks, swimming, and grilling) can be painful indeed. To get you through your barbecue and burger hangovers today (and perhaps hangovers of another variety too), this week’s links all feature great, fun reads to peruse in your downtime. From fantastic DIYs to inspirational stories about women in fashion, you’re sure to find a good read. Settle in with a coffee, put some aloe on your sunburn, and enjoy.
