I feel like my blog has really been abandoned the past few weeks. Especially now the weather is getting worse, it’s getting harder and harder to shoot my outfits. I’m also far too tired to be messing about to try new locations. I’m also getting lazy when it comes to doing my beauty reviews and lifestyle posts. While life is actually good right now, I’ve not been able to share it with my blog and allow my blog to continue to grow. It’s so weird to think that this time last year I was a “Full Time Blogger” with just a little 8 hour contract at H&M.
A year on and I’m a full time 35 hour Sales Advisor, and next week I will officially become the Trainee Visual Merchandiser at H&M Telford. Only last week I was planning my daily routine for my big move to the Tamworth store to do my training, when I was offered the chance to stay with my lovely Telford H&M family. I’m so excited to start my training and to know that all my hard work of building up my portfolio has paid off. I’ve worked really hard since joining H&M to build my way up and I can’t help but feel proud of myself.
I think once I get into my new routine, and settle with my change in hours I’ll be back to making a routine for my blog also. While I’ve not been posting I have been jotting down ideas, and attending events! I’ve also brought far too many clothes that I’ve not even shared on the blog yet, so don’t worry I’ll be back with some outfit of the days soon! I also want to start youtube again. I got a lot of good feedback last time and let’s face it youtube is the place to be at the moment! (I got very excited when I realised zoella’s manager follows me on twitter the other day) But rest assure I’m still alive and I’ll be back with lot sod new posts soon! I may even have a re-vamp as I think I’ve changed a lot and I want my blog to be in sync with me.
I know wht you mean about not being able to do outfit posts now the weather has changed. Well done for doing so well at H&M!
I feel the same about photographing beauty products as I had been going outside to do them as the lighting in doors is really bad so I'm struggling and I can only image it will get worse! Well done with H&M as a former manager of there, who started from the bottom and got promoted very quickly I know how bloody tough that place is (some stores may have it easier) it was the breaking point for me and literally killed any life I had away from work, however I do miss the discount but I don't miss the long hours and having to tidy up after untidy customers!!! x
Your new job sounds amazing, can't wait to hear all about it!
I always find my blogging slows down a little at this time of year because as you so rightly say the photographic opportunities are harder to come by. Still it sounds like you have lots of other exciting things going on and occasionally we all need to remind ourselves that our blogging really should just be for ourselves and not because we feel obligated to produce content!
Wow – fab news on your new job. Re time for photographs. I am lucky that OH takes the kiddoes away on some weekend mornings to give me time to photograph.
Great news on the job, how exciting. Sometimes we need to take a step back and once you are up and running you will be back to blogging in no time x
