I started a formspring account a while ago, in fact so long that I forgot until I receive a random question! The question was 'Who inspires you?' I thought it would be nice to post about the other bloggers that inspire me.
Obviously the Internet breeds unoriginality and that copy and paste button can sometimes be all too easy. I am sure most people have read someone else's posts and though...eh didn't I say that??? But the original person has not credited them or even mentioned them at all.
So these are some of the people/blogs that inspire me or have helped me since starting blogging in many different ways. This isn't a 'beauty blog link love' type of thing just a shout out and an overall thank you to those that I appreciate their help or advice. I might love their style, their product reviews, suggestions or just a bit of everything. Sometimes I might forget who mentioned what exactly so I wanted to put it all together just so a) they could all know how much I appreciate them and their blogs and b) so you can go and check them out if you don't already.
Holly - Yummy Mummy Beauty Blog
Through Holly I have found websites, new products, even a handbag:
Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfecter
Gogo Philip Jewellery
Accessories Online - a wonderful online jewellery shop
And of course my MiuMiu vitello lux at a discounted price - how could I ever thank her enough for that tip??
Zara - Mouldyfruit
Through Zara I have found:
A love for Nars eyeshadow duos
I rediscovered my love for Mac Gingerly blush
I learnt what a Shisha pipe is!
And in general I love her FOTD / OOTD type posts and the fact her clothes look like something I would actually be happy to leave the house in, I feel some OOTD from other people just look scary!
Tali - Gloss Goss
Through Tali I have found:
Korres makeup - Before reading her blog but I hadn't even realised they did makeup - d'oh! Some favourites being the primer, foundations and bronzer.
Orelia - So pretty, the hoop or dangly earrings are staples and they are very well priced.
Dior Amber Diamond
YSL Rouge Voluptes - I love them!
I am also very jealous (in a nice way) of Mitzy the cat her gorgeous kitten, as much as I adore Benny the cat sometimes he can be lazy and he doesn't want to play much.
Muhsine from Bubblegarm
From Muhsine I have found:
Neil's Yard Skincare - loving their face wash
Muji Storage for jewellery - so handy!
I just like looking at her pictures really - she is so gorgeous!
Jo from beautyliciouslove
You gotta love someone if you spend 2 hours on a stinky Virgin train just to visit them ;P
My bloggie partner in crime, I might not always have time to comment but I read every update every day just so you know.
Always easy to talk to even if I want to have a pathetic toddler style depressed moan about something inane and stupid - she doesn't make me feel like a complete tool. Even when I am being one!
Murad AHA cleanser - even though I don't even need it!
Laura from keepingslimandgettingstylish
A new blog I started reading this year, but I have learnt so much
How to make protein cakes and smoothies
About teapigs
About chocolate peanut butter
I love finding out what she has eaten - is that strange?! It always looks so tasty and delicious.
Leanne from donotrefreeze
I love looking at the pictures of the nail art that Leanne has come up with. I know that I am far too lazy to do that myself, especially as my nails always seem to chip so quickly I would be devastated if I spend half an hour doing them then it chipped the next day, but I enjoy looking at her pictures and thinking...one day!
Laura from lollipop26writes
From Laura I learnt to blog! So thank you Laura, I had never even heard the term 'blogging' before I googled 'Lilash reviews', stumbled across your blog and after a month or so though hey I want one too!
<3
I hope you all liked this post, I encourage you all to say thank you to the people that inspire you whether it be in real life, in blogs, on twitter etc. etc. It is nice to appreciate other people and thank them for their hard work
