Five Years

My first outfit post (January 2010) to my most recent blog post (December 2014)

5 years is a really, really long time.
As long as I was at high school.
Even longer than I was at university.
Longer in fact than I've known some of my best friends.

When I started this blog I was 19. (You can read my first blog post here)
I'd just started my second year of uni and had just started to explore my interest in fashion by writing for the lifestyle section of the student newspaper.
I started reading fashion blogs and decided that if these ordinary girls could start a blog, I could too.

I never expected to still be doing this 5 years later. 
In the last 5 years I've lived abroad (twice!), finished my degree, started working full time, met my wonderful boyfriend, had multiple jobs, had relationships and bereavements and car crashes and illnesses.
But it's all been documented here.

I'm so proud of myself for sticking at this for 5 years.
I can't imagine not having my blog in my life. It's like an old friend who has been there for me through the good and the bad.

Finally, thank you to all of you! Some of you have been here since the start, and some of you have just started reading this year, but thank you thank you thank you for all your support!

Here's to 5 more!
