Hello August, you have definitely come around sooner than I was expecting but I don't mind in the slightest. As a kid, August was filled with days spent outside getting muddy and usually wet, going to parks in the early evening and then having barbecues, before going to sleep under the stars. Now while I may have romanticised this slightly in the decade or so that has past, this time of year still brings me happiness (even though it means Christmas is getting closer).
July's highlights
July was a brilliant month for me that included a vast amount of barbecues and taking time away from my desk, as well as a trip to Berlin, which may very well be my favourite city now. I've also been listening to a lot of my old music with Pink's Misunderstood album being my go-to one at the moment. This may sound embarrassing to some, but I love this album and as a young 11/12-year-old was the first piece album that gave me solace before I fell into my teen angst. I think is partly to blame/praise for my independent attitude about life and being determined to do exactly what I want.
I feel like I've started to find my blogging feet and know the creative path that I want it to go down, which hopefully means I'll keep it up for longer than past attempts.

Blogging picks // Homeware Haul by Zoella - I know everyone knows about Zoella now so I don't need to tell you how brilliant she is but this homeware haul is one of my personal favourites. Homeware is like porn to me.
August's expectations
August, in fact this weekend, is the SO's birthday so we''ll be heading to our favourite restaurant Bella Donna near where both our parents live, which always makes me get excited as they do the best steak on earth - NO LIE. If you are ever near Derbyshire or Yorkshire it is well worth a visit.
I'm managed to get my hands on my first issue of Oh Comely, which I've heard nothing but good things about, and a couple of notebooks to keep my blogging ideas down in. My aim for this month is to keep WKD up to standard and pretty regular, reading more brilliant blogs (the list is becoming endless) and getting stuck into more books.
What do you want from August?
