Our favourite blogs for her
Today we're bringing you blogs by inspirational women, from outdoor adventurers to crafting queens. So whatever your passion, we have something for you!
A Lady in London
Read this blog with care: you are likely to feel extreme jealousy (especially when you see THAT luxury waterside bungalow in the Maldives). This blog is an absolute must-read for ladies who love to travel.
Are you a fan of the Chelsea boot trend? Then get your hands on a studded pair like Michelle’s. Wish you could take part in Movember too? Check out her adorable moustache nail art! This jam-packed blog is simply excellent.
Unleash your inner diva with striking red lipstick, or train yourself in the art of properly applied foundation. It’s easy with Laura to show you how, so pack your bags and fly away to makeup heaven!
Bubblegarm
Be inspired to take the plunge with an ombre hairstyle, turn your hand to a spot of crocheting, or discover how to throw the perfect party for a little princess. Is there anything this beautiful blogger can’t do?
Cold Comfort Crafts
Take a large helping of crafty goodness, throw in some yummy recipes and tales of family life and you have Cold Comfort Crafts!
Ephemera's Attic
You’ll find all sorts in the Attic: there are handstitched reindeer tote bags and homemade cards with glitter and snowflakes, so if you’re after a taste of the traditional with a little added sparkle, go for a rummage!
Fashion Filth
Take a look at her über-glamorous hen party outfit - Union Jack handbag and glittery heels, yes please! - or watch her gorgeous wedding video, which might just bring a tear to your eye. Forget fake eyelashes and fad diets, this is what fashion is really about.
Food Stories
As well as cooking up a storm in her own kitchen, she reviews restaurants and dishes out tips for making even the worst kitchen tasks enjoyable (even deveining prawns!). A great read for aspiring foodies.
Hannah's Country Kitchen
As well as dishes to make you drool (gingerbread Buckingham Palace, enough said) you can see behind the scenes at a cookbook photo shoot, and join a rather special Alice in Wonderland party. Oh, and don’t forget Muffy the cat!
Whether you’re looking for your own crafty ideas or want to admire some amazing talent, Hungry Heffy is sure to satisfy your appetite. You’ll be longing for your own electronic cutting tool before you know it!
This.Is.What.I.Do
Visiting her blog is like rummaging around in a closet you wish you owned. Why not keep the festive spirit going all year with an awesome Santa jumper? Or liven up any outfit with neon yellow shoes and a bright beanie? For more great ideas, let Kate show how!
Lips So Facto
As well as discussing great products - gold glitter for your nails! - Meg also puts together great collections for treating various facial evils, including spots and tired eyes. Lips So Facto is a blog for all your makeup needs!
Love From Mummy
There’s plenty of useful parenting information here, including everything you need to know about meningitis, how to recover from an accident at work, and the cutest Santa’s little helper outfit you’ve ever seen!
Meek~N~Mild
From the classic curvaceous little black dress, to the awesome geek jumper for proud nerds, you’ll find something to love here, no matter what your style.
Mummy Mishaps
Read everything this lovely mummy has to say about millionaire’s shortbread cupcakes, cooking healthy meals in a slow cooker for a young family, and making New Year’s resolutions. (Fingers crossed that she doesn’t break her mobile phone this year!)
Look back at Emma’s ‘bump diary’ for the cutest eviction notice you’ll ever read, or catch up with the family in their new cottage home (note to self: packing boxes make great baby dens). This is a great mothering blog with a realsense of humour.
You really can’t miss out on this blog: it’s full of funny anecdotes, tales of holiday romance and genuinely moving personal posts. Are you getting itchy feet yet?
Bored of plain omelettes? She’ll show you how to liven them up with leeks and goats cheese. Always wanted to try squid? Let the spicy tomato squid bruschetta tempt you. Lovers of Italian food, unite!
Here you’ll find everything you need to plan your own adventurous holidays: her wonderful photographs will inspire you, and her ‘how to’ guides will make sure you stay safe and in control on the road. So what are you waiting for? Follow this girl outdoors!
Everything you need to know is right here, including the makeup brushes you shouldn’t live without, tips to maintain an ombre hairstyle and even an ode to the humble cotton bud. Simply divine!
She’ll show you her stunning Mac makeover, teach you how to dress to impress at a festival, and convince you that bobble hats make the perfect accessory. We’re sold!
