Hey Loves, welcome to day 11 of ‘blogmas’ only one more day left. That means we are a little closer to Christmas… just a little. I am excited to feature some of my peeps outside of the UK today. I feel blessed (and flattered to be honest) to be able to say I have supporters of this blog all over the world, including China, Cayman Islands, Sweden, St.Lucia, Maldives, Dubai and fair few more still. When I started out sure I hoped (expected lol) my close friends and family in the UK and US to check out the blog but to know that the reach is far beyond that is beyond anything I has hoped, especially as I do not blog as much as I would like. So, I say THANK YOU again to each and everyone of you! No matter where you are, THANK YOU for your support ❤️.
A gentle reminder for anyone who may not yet have checked out my previous ‘blogmas’ posts. These posts are not sponsored. I simply wanted to highlight some of the small businesses and services that are owned and operated by some wonderful friends. They continue to put their all into their brands and I hope you will connect with them when looking for gifts and services. We international baby, so let’s say hey to a few friends across the pond.

Her amazing work has been featured in campaigns from Carolina Herrera to Van Cleef & Arpels, graced magazine covers, seen in commercials and music videos, on posters and much much more.

Elton Leonard @thepeoplesartist.ny – Elton is indeed an OG vetran whose life is his art. He is a New York artist, illustrator, graphic designer and photographer with many more strings to his bow. As one of my dearest friends from high school, I know that art is what runs deep in his veins and fuels his drive to be imaginative and original. Overall, his desire is to stay true to himself through his artistic gifts. His body of work is eclectic, incredible, and showcases his brilliant talents and skill. He also offers his wealth of experience as an art teacher- always giving back, that’s why he is ‘the people’s artist‘. His inspiring work is a staple in NYC. Please take a closer look at all that this inspiring creative has to offer by checking out his website here. Today also happens to be his birthday (11/12)- Happy Birthday ELJ!
Ingrid @brueklenmyst – Are you a lover of accessories… then you should hit up Ingrid. If you are in need of luxury, statement jewellery (uk spelling lol) that won’t take all your coins, let the accessory Queen herself hook you up. She offers a huge range of pieces including necklaces and earrings, with options for jewellery parties also (in line with Ms.Rona’s guidance of course). Ingrid is also one of my high school peeps and she has always had the best style. She is also a freelance MUA, available to ‘beat your face’ to perfection for you next special occasion. Looking for something a little different, then find out more about all Ingrid has to offer here for jewellery and on her instagram for you MUA needs. Ingrid is based in the NY area.
