20 Blog Post Ideas

Blog ideas

I am sometimes guilty of being stuck in a rut when blogging, I mean I have this small little piece of the internet, that I can call my own, and sometimes I just don’t know what to write about. Sometimes I’ll be staring at my screen, with a blank face, tapping away, then deleting what I’ve just written. It take a lot of work to perfect a post, and us bloggers don’t necessarily get the credit we deserve when it comes to the difficulties of blogging, and thinking up some blog post ideas.

I’ve vowed to use 2016 as “my blogging year“, it’s going to the be the lead up to some huge life events for me, and I want nothing more than my blog to be a place to document this. I understand how difficult it can be, however, when you’re stuck in a rut, struggling for blog post ideas and what to blog about. Today I’ll share with you an endless list of 20 blog post ideas to get your blog game on!

The Downside To Wedding Dress Shopping

The downside to wedding dress shopping

I was in two minds about writing this post. On one side I was thinking that really I shouldn’t let them win and give them the gratitude of knowing how they have affected me. On the other hand I know that I’m probably not the only person who feels this way. I can pretty much bet that this has affected someone else in some shape or form. I give you, the downside to wedding dress shopping.

Your wedding day, and the lead up is supposed to be one of the biggest and most exciting times of your life. On my blog, I have written a number of posts in relation to my wedding – to the planning, giving out advice, and documenting my views on why I have and haven’t opted to follow tradition. Every time I have mentioned to people that I am in the process of planning the wedding, they have almost always congratulated me and mentioned how exciting it must be to be planning the wedding. Of course, this doesn’t come without the stress of planning, but surely all of this can be worth it when it comes down to the big day? View Post

Snacks to help you Focus At Work

Snacks to help you focus

If you have an office job like me, and are regularly stuck at your desk, sometimes it can be difficult to get in the nutrients, and your daily intake of things such as water. Days in the office can get really long, especially if you are having a busy day, or fighting against tight deadlines. Instead of upping the amount of coffee you drink, and zoning in and out at work, there can be other ways that can help you focus and be efficient at work and during work hours.

If you’re starting to feel a bit groggy and lacking energy by the end of the day, it’s potentially time to review your diet and what you are snacking on at your desk. Clear out those drawers and start stocking up on the items within my list below, these are vital snacks to help you focus at work. View Post

Top Netflix Picks

Top Netflix Picks

With the bank holiday weekend coming up, some of us may be looking forward to having a lazy weekend. Thank God for bank holidays! For those of us who were lucky enough to be in the same situation, the time off is a perfect excuse to not just have a duvet day, but a duvet week. All you need after making that decision is to get the laptop charged up, stock up on some snacks – you cannot beat Kettle Crisps (cracked black pepper, of course), and your subscription to Netflix, with my list of Netflix picks, and you’re all ready to go.

I recently subscribed to Netflix after putting it off for so long – I didn’t really have much time for Eastenders let alone full on TV series’s. Now that I’m no longer studying for my exams, I have found that I have an endless amount of free time. Sometimes you just want to curl up on the sofa, or stay in bed, and binge watch a few TV shows. After-all, I had missed out on SO many shows. My Twitter feed was full of people tweeting about popular shows that I knew nothing about. It was finally time to catch up, and I spent a good few months binge watching whenever I had some free time at home.

When we think of protein shakes we generally think of body-builders or gym rats, rarely do we know how beneficial drinking shakes can be for us after a grueling workout. If you think about the idea of protein shakes, that’s probably the first image that comes to your head. It would be difficult to miss the likes of UFIT protein shakes when you are walking into your local supermarket. However, with many of us confused of with the benefits that these shakes can have on our bodies, these little bottles of wonders could easily be missed.
