As I enter the final year of my 30s, I thought I s As I enter the final year of my 30s, I thought I share with you some pictures of mine at 9 months, 9 years, 19 years, 29 years  to today 39 years old of age. Looking back at each decade, I feel both ‘older’ and ‘younger’, I see the change in my features, the change in my way of life, the change in my personality and the experience itched on my face. I am grateful for the life I have lived thus far and excited for the life I am yet to live. 
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

2026 - 39, (Home, England), I am ready for this final year before my 40s but also ready for this next decade. 
2016 - 29, (Oslo, Norway), this decade was about self discovery and building the life I dreamt about. The life that I am super proud of and truly grateful to be living. This decade, I built my financial life and in later years choose to heal from the trauma gained in the last decade and now I feel well equipped for the future. 
2006 - 19, (Glasgow, Scotland), I thought I was grown (look at the cheekbones 🤣🤣) and ready for the world, chiiiild was I wrong, let’s just say, I am still resolving the trauma the decade brought me but I am grateful because I met my best friends and made decisions for the future I wanted to have. (Spoiler alert - I did better than I dreamed). 
1996 - 9, (Home, Zambia) this was my birthday but my little sister insisted she had to be the one in the middle. The only way we knew whose birthday it was, was by standing in the middle but this year I remember baby sister crying her eyes out and refusing 🤨
1988 - 9 months, (Chililabombwe, Zambia) although my mother looks tired and traumatised😟, I know I was loved and happy.

Sponsor Roundup · June 18, 2014

{Affiliates} June Brands

 

Welcome to my sponsor/affiliates series post, most of have my regulars know I try at least once a month to post about the sponsors and/or affiliate links gracing my side bar or bottom bar of my blog. Again this month I am dedicating this post to the June Brands I am made aware of via the etailPr. EtailPr as a PR company that brings bloggers and brands are like together. To explain this to someone not familiar with the blogging world or someone new I would describe this relationship (like last time) as a win-win situation where brands offer bloggers free samples (*please note this does not happen always) to try out and then either post on the blog about the item(s) or make a video (vlog) about the item(s). I have been fortunate enough to receive samples via an affiliate program called Share-A-Sale, they are similar to etailPr but have a bigger brand range and how you apply is different (I will post about this another time). Now without any further details, please welcome or revisit:

Feel Unique -> I have seen banners of this brand floating around the blogsphere, I will admit I had never heard of this company before seeing on a few of my favourite bloggers and visiting the etailPr website. At the moment there are offering 15% off your first order and 5 pounds off when you spend 20 pounds, I think that’s pretty awesome and if you do too click the image below and go have a feast at some of the products they have going on. You can also use this LINK.

 

Clarins –> I think everyone and anyone has heard about Clarins and their amazing products (so am told), I myself have not taken the plunge yet to start using Clarins products only because I have found products that work for me and since I do not really suffer with break-outs etc. I don’t feel the need to leave what’s been working for me all this time. Saying that I will soon be in the market for a new face wash so maybe I will try then but that’s a couple months away as I am nicely stocked up at the moment. If you would love more information on Clarins or just curious, please click HERE or the image below.

Graze box –>I got introduced to this box way back in 2011 when I was a student on placement, I loved getting my box every Wednesday at work and trying out new different snacks. Those who know me know I have a sweet tooth (not a bit a huge one), so my choice of snacks was using packed with different types of sweetness. I also get bored easily so I never really invested time in choosing the snacks which were good for me and would give me energy boosts whilst at work and stop me snacking on only sugary foods, but not with me being a blogger and being exposed to a whole new ground with so many ideas, suggestions and reviews I am confident I can make good choices. If you would like more information on the graze box, visit their website HERE or click the image below.

 

LYDC à I talked about this company in my last sponsor/affiliate posts and OMG I love their bags like crazy. I do not think I can describe them with the justice they deserve so instead click on the image below or the LINK to find out more. Let me know your favourite tote bag so we can collaborate like seriously.

Competitions

The really good thing about etailPr is that they don’t just have brands saying this is who were are and what we can offer bloggers and what we want etc. they actually try to engage with the bloggers and usually that’s through competitions, we all love free stuff but they also want something in return hence competitions to kick start the friendship. So I decided to share with you all some of the competitions going on and you have the opportunity to enter.
