life :: return

So I have now officially moved back home for summer after a tremendously stressful yet enjoyable second year.  This year has tested me so much, but my faith is even stronger, new friendships have been made, and I'm happier than I've ever been.  It's going to be a stressful summer with SO much to get… Continue reading life :: return

Beauty was always a side-line to my love of fashion until I undertook the role of Fashion & Beauty Editor of SCAN. It opened my eyes to talking about something just as, if not even more, artistic than fashion.  Ever since I was little, I always loved doing my eyeshadow and that still continues to… Continue reading beauty :: graphic

I dreaded waking up today to the 10am release of second year results. It didn't help that I woke up 45 minutes early - I had to fill that time with something other than crippling anxiety. When 10am came, my first demonic thought came: "Why are you even bothering at university Anna"; the second, "You're… Continue reading life :: continue

It's quite hard sometimes to be a "milennial" (despite being born in the nineties) and a Christian. It's challenging. Although as a society, we're a lot more accepting, we're also a lot more defensive yet on the attack at the same time. So, adding Christianity to this battle already can make muddling through the early years… Continue reading love :: rainbow

I'm getting a little posting-obsessed over on Instagram, so thought I'd spill out my energy onto the webpage instead. Along with all the photos I'm dying to post. So now that I'm home for summer, I'm trying to keep myself occupied. I spent Monday-Wednesday mostly at home, except yesterday (Wednesday) I had a job interview.… Continue reading life :: home

2016 left me feeling a little drab and a little worn out. In all honesty, my hair has never been in better condition, but I am in desperate need of a switch up and a trim.  So I have come to Prestige Salon in the centre of Lancaster.  The inspiration behind my new hair are the… Continue reading beauty :: copper

life :: learned and to learn

More and more recently I have been thinking of what path I'm on, and where I'm headed. I'm usually the one looking back, not wanting to let go of the past for fear that I lose people, lose memories, ultimately lose a part of myself. But I've grown to realise that that's not the case.… Continue reading life :: learned and to learn

life :: 2016, a year in review 

Rather focusing on all the negatives 2016 brought me (although let's be honest it's the way we act, and not the numbers themselves), I thought I'd re-digest the good parts and the happy parts, and look forward to the next year ahead. So, if you're interested, brew a tea n cuddle a pillow and have a… Continue reading life :: 2016, a year in review

{Now then stand still and see this great thing the Lord is about to do before your eyes!} 1 Samuel 12:16. So yesterday I headed back to my second home i.e. Lancaster for a job interview. I'm not going to go into too much detail about the interview, but I could not not talk about my… Continue reading fashion :: interviewee

While I'm "working on posts" (i.e my brain won't configure to write something coherent), I thought I'd put together a little post.  As I'm sure many of you are aware, Pinterest is perhaps the best source of inspiration. Particularly motivational quotes. I get that obsessed reading words of truth that I both pin them and… Continue reading life :: mass
