Happy Valentine’s & Galentines’s….I dedicate this reel to my husband, after a very difficult year last year, love is all about the little things & the wonderful memories you made along the way, remembering what brought you together in the first place, love really is all you need ♥️🌹♥️

First post of 2026!
As the clock ticks closer to 2026, I'm embracing these serene moments to look back on the past year. 2025 has been a tough journey, testing my limits and teaching me valuable lessons. Yet, it's also brought me happiness and gratitude. With the festive season coming to an end, a new year full of possibilities awaits. I'm looking forward to the celebrations ahead, my big birthday in September and our special anniversary in May – significant milestones. I’m looking forward to more travelling and more trips to Paris. I’m excited to grow my blog, to write more. I’m grateful for my little job in Harley Street which gives me the flexibility I need to do the things I love - to write for my blog (there’s a lot coming in 2026) to go to the gym & travel to Paris ♥️ I'm feeling hopeful about the future after the hardest year but I'm proud of myself for staying strong, and I know better times are ahead. Here's to a happy, healthy, and successful 2026 for everyone. The Disney experience at Selfridges is a lovely reminder of the power of imagination.
