Blogs: What I am reading at the moment

I do not have an official blog roll of the what I read but I do have a personal list of websites and pages that go to for a noisy. Some make me laugh, some make me think and others offer some form of inspiration.

So I thought I would share four blogs that influence me in the last six months.



Blog: Hannah Gayle

Theme: personal/lifestyle

Why Read It: Only a recent addition to my reading list but I adore her warmth, humour and the keen observations she makes. There is a vulnerability to her writing that is unusual in blogs these days. As a fellow list fan I find myself laughing at the truthful observations she makes whilst considering quite grown up themes. 

Example post: 27 things all women learn about men in their twenties

Blog: Amber Interiors

Theme: interiors with a splash of style/lifestyle

Why Read it: Anyone who secretly (and not so secretly) lusts after the soCal life style should tune into this blog for house porn. I first stubbled accross it after I realised that nearly every Pinterest pin I had for house inspiration took me to one of Amber's beautifully put together designs. Filled with top tips, inspiration and Amber's inescapable style, this blog is a breath of fresh air. Amber's aesthetic is impeccable and much copied with the most amazing use of ethnic textiles you will ever see. 

Example Post: Before & After: Dr Client Clients

Blog: Un-Fancy

Theme: minimalist wardrobe 

Why Read it: If you find yourself feeling like you have nothing to wear despite having a wardrobe full of clothes this this the blog for you. Coming from a desire not to over consume or over spend Caroline's 37 price core capsules wardrobes for each of the four seasons will encourage to fall in love with your wardrobe again. I'm taking her approach to heart but more of that later. 

Example Post: How to build a capsule Wardrobe

Blog: Smitten Kitchen

Theme: food

Why Read it: Filled with the sort of dishes that you imagine you should be able to whip up to impress your guests. From hearty cauliflower cheese and pretzel buns to sticky toffee cake and decedent hot chocolate, this website has comfort food down. When you have guests and you need inspiration over what to make this site has it covered. 

Example Post: Carrot, Cider and Olive Oil Cake
