my june goals!

-

As lockdown continues, I’m trying to stay as motivated and productive as possible (shock), and one way I’m trying to continue this is with setting myself some goals. I like to set out my weekly goals but am ready to set out something I can monitor over a period of time. I do track my habits with my habit tracker in my planner, but I never properly set goals so today I am going to share them and at the end of the month I will look back on them and see if I have achieved them, and if not, I will carry on working towards them.

goal one- to keep my mental health up

It is fair to say my mental health has took a hit recently, so I’m hoping to keep it up this next month by staying happy and productive, as well as finding a balance and taking some time to care for myself.

goal two- improve my fitness

At the start of April, I kept pulling my shoulder so I struggled to complete a lot of exercise, meaning I just had to call it quits. But I’m noticing that I don’t have my pre-lockdown physique, so I am going to try to improve my fitness as best as possible. I am also going to take this time to work on my flexibility again, as I haven’t been doing a lot since I stopped dance just over 2 months ago.

goal three- try and save as much as possible

Lockdown has been okay for my spending, but hasn’t been the best, so I am hoping this month that I only spend for items I really need. This will really help me to continue saving for university next year, which is a more long-term goal of mine.

goal four- have a deep clean of my room

I have been doing some cleaning during lockdown, but I am really needing a deep clean of my bedroom before I leave for university. Plus, I need to really tackle under my bed, as I just put a lot of things under there! I feel like this will allow me to have a proper declutter: something I feel I really need to do. As well as tackling my bed, I will also declutter my clothes, as I know there’s items in my wardrobe that I just don’t wear!

goal five- create a proper blog schedule

Finally, a blog related goal. Since I started my blog back up again, just over a month ago, I never created an actual schedule, however, I feel like creating a proper schedule will allow me to stay on top of when I take photos, when I write, edit etc. I am currently in the process of doing this so keep an eye out on my Instagram for this!

 

I hope these goals motivate you to stay productive also. If you have any monthly goals you’d like to achieve, tell me in the comments I’d love to chat! Have a fab month,

summer skincare routine

-

Skincare is usually not something I care too much about, and as I do have pretty clear skin. However, I have wanted to have a routine in place, as I am trying to reduce the amount of break outs I have! I mean, what a great time to be writing this, considering I have just broken out with a few spots around my nose! I don't own a lot of skincare products, and its just because my skin rarely needs a full, deep cleanse, but these products I use on a daily basis. In the morning, I will only apply the last 3 products, just because I don't usually have a lot of time to focus on skincare! In the evenings, I start by taking off my makeup with the Garnier Micellar Water and a cotton pad, which thoroughly takes off my makeup, meaning I can skip the stage of cleansing. If I am feeling lazy however, I just remove my makeup with a makeup wipe. I then hydrate my face with the Mario Badescu Facial Spray, which helps my skin from not going dry in the summer months. This also gi...

3 ways to make your spotify 'aesthetic'

-

Music is something that makes me so happy, and you find me listening to it a lot of the time (as I’m writing this I have my summer playlist on), whether that be with my airpods in and being respectful to everyone, blasting out my records, or just having a party in my room (this happens more often than not!). I use and update my spotify account regularly, and like to keep it as ‘aesthetic’ as possible, and there are ways to do this. I will link my spotify below if you’d like any inspiration 😊 1.       Update your playlists regularly. New songs are released weekly, and you can often find songs that you forget about but never add them to playlists. By updating playlists, it means you’re not having the same selection of songs on repeat, which can eventually get boring. As well as adding new songs, removing songs you don’t like as much anymore or don’t fit a certain vibe in a playlist, it can help you to enjoy some playlists a lot more, rather than having to ski...

  Hello and welcome back to the blog, or welcome if you are new! I’m here with another extra collab post, I have been working with Vivian and Sairah from iridescent.photo.blog to bring you this cross over collab! The girls have just finished secondary school and are about to start sixth form/college, and I have just finished sixth form, I got my A-Levels (literally yesterday as I’m writing this). So, I am writing a letter to my 16 year old self, of what I wish I’d known, and the girls will write a letter to their 18 year old selves, which they can refer back to when they are in my position! I will link all of their socials, as well as their blog and post down below! Dear Amelia, I know you’re petrified to start sixth form in a brand-new place, with so many new people, and with a dress code that you’re not so keen on! But I tell you now, you’re going to enjoy the 2 years (most of the time) and you actually really like the dress code once you put your own spin on it! The bi...
