The Catch-Up: We're on Holiday!
Our weekly conversation.
________
Another week, another weekly catch-up.
As we do every weekend, not only do I want to talk to you about the highlights of my week, but I also want to know about yours! Have you rediscovered an old favourite thing? Finish reading a book? Or perhaps went out for dinner somewhere new? No matter what it is, I'd love to know! After all, Lion in the Wild is all about conversation, getting to know each other and discovering new things.
1. The Island of the Gods. Guess where we are?! Well, if you've seen the @lioninthewild Instagram, then you'll know we've landed in beautiful Bali. After a short flight and a quick little road trip, we're finally amongst the lush greenery and palm trees of Ubud with The Luxe Nomad. I hadn't been to Ubud on our previous trips, but I had heard the most amazing things about the area and it does not disappoint (and neither does this view at Kamandalu!). I'm vlogging our trip, but for the moment you can see what we're getting up to by following 'lioninthewild' on Snapchat!
2. A huge to-do list and not enough time. And yet, here I am, knowing that I somehow managed to get everything checked off before we departed (my goodness, it was a struggle!). My trick? Lots of coffee and not enough sleep. Yeah, not the healthiest way to do it, but knowing we would be in paradise on the weekend helped a lot. I'm feeling and early night coming along, that's for sure.
3. The Missguided Haul. It's been a while since we've put up a new video, but this week we shared two on the YouTube Channel. I had almost forgotten how much fun they are to create (and how awkward it can be talking into a camera - hehehe). When my huge Missguided order arrived at my door, I knew I had to do a Haul and Try-On Video, so I hope you all really enjoyed it! It's so refreshing having lots of new basics in my wardrobe to choose from.
4. Sunset Bronze. Elizabeth Arden has released their beautiful limited edition makeup collection, Sunset Bronze, and my goodness is it incredible! I'm a huge fan of both the Elizabeth Arden makeup and skincare, but this has to be one of my favourite collections so far. Quite frankly, it couldn't have come at a better time either, since we're now in the midst of summer again. Want to see more? Well, you'll just have to wait until Monday week (hint-hint, nudge-nudge).
5. We're on Snapchat! As I mentioned before, I finally took the plunge into the world of Snapchat, after resisting for years. It turns out though, it's was well worth it. I've really enjoyed getting to know my favourite bloggers and business women better, and seeing the raw side of life (you know, the unedited version). You can of course follow my day-to-day life via the 'lioninthewild' Snapchat. Who are your favourite Snapchatters?
