My Favorite Content and Creators// 2015

Hello again, humans!

As you are aware, I have recently been very active on my blog. Purely because I've had so many ideas. Also, because I am completing the rest of my photography course at home and when I complete a unit of coursework I get pretty bored and occupy myself by creating things and writing. 

I have been blogging now since January last year and love everything about it. The fact that people actually take interest in what I have to say and actually read my content with enthusiasm really motivates me and feels so rewarding. It's even spiraled into creating a YouTube channel with Tom- Daily Commotion.

But, I am obviously not the only blogger out there. I don't really update my 'Favorite Blogs' page (located at the top of the page) enough because I just come across so many amazing pages every day of every week. So, I have taken the time to share with you guys, on this post, my favorite bloggers with a brief description as to why I love them and their content so much. 

Youtube Crushes

The Saccone-Joly Family @ SACCONEJOLYs

I stumbled across this channel when I watched sprinkleofglitter's (more on her soon) vlogs showing the double-family trip to Disney World in Florida, where the Saccone Joly family were featured. 

The channel is heavily focused around the family life of Jonathan and Anna Saccone-Joly as well as their lovely tots, Eduardo and Emilia. The reason why I love this channel is because it just gets me so excited for when I have my own family and all the small but beautiful moments that take place when having children. It's such a lovely idea for them to document all the small and precious moments, especially during Emilia and Eduardo's early years, to look back and reflect on in future. 

Sprinkle of Glitter @ Sprinkleofglitter & sprinkleofglitter.blogspot.co.uk

This channel and blog documents the beauty regimes and day-to-day life of the lovely Louise Pentland. Her daughter also has a significant role in the channel. Like the Saccone-Joly's, Louise's video diaries and blog posts are often orientated around her family life. Also, she posts a lot about stationary and I love stationary so much. 

I have been a fan of this channel and blog for a long time and love the fresh variety of content as it springs from beauty, to Q and A's and to Darcy's development. Honestly...this channel makes me very broody. More importantly, I find it incredibly inspirational as Louise is always finding the positives and sharing happy vibes by sharing beautiful photographs (like the one above) and motivational posts about staying positive through crappy times.

Well, I think I've made a good job of squeezing pretty much everything I love about Sprinkleofglitter into one paragraph!

Marzia @ CutiePieMarzia

Many of you will know Marzia as PewDiePie's girlfriend. Her name goes without saying, as she is without a doubt incredibly cute. I don't know whether it's her voice or her style but she is my 'Woman Crush Wednesday' every week. Maria includes some beauty and a lot of challenges on her post. She even made the most adorable video of Maya, which was Puga does Everything, as a spoof of her boyfriends PewDiePie does Everything. Without sounding like I am blowing a tune on my old trumpet, I have been told that I look a little bit like her, when I had longer hair of course, which makes me an extremely happy girl. 

jacksepticeye

I should probably point out that I'm not always reading beauty and family blogs. Before I started watching any of the above channels, I watched this guy religiously. 

Jack is an Irish gamer and let me tell you, he is absolutely hilarious. Along with PewDiePie and Markiplier, he is one of my favorite gamer people on Youtube. He is also the reason why I have such a dark sense of humor. I used to pretty much reference and quote his videos in everyday conversations I had. I should get back to that...it made things a lot more interesting. 

Blog Crushes

Zoe Sugg @ http://www.zoella.co.uk

As well as having a Youtube channel, Zoella also has a blog. She hasn't posted on it at all really since Christmas last year but it's still well worth a read, especially considering she was voted as Cosmopolitan's Favorite Beauty Blogger 2014. As well as writing about beauty, Zoella has also tackled many important issues in her content too, such as body shaming and coping with panic attacks. Her blog actually inspired me to start my own up in order to talk about my experiences with mental health. She is an inspiration and more than appropriate role model for girls around the world.

Anastasia Amour @ http://anastasiaamour.com

I really can't get enough of this amazing girl. She is fantastic! 

Anastasia is a passionate and devoted activist against body shaming, after coming out of an eating disorder herself. She has values of promoting positive self esteem and self respect without encouraging young people to conform to the status quo and society's concepts of beauty. So, if you suffer from an eating disorder, low self esteem or are just feeling a little crap, go and give this blog a read. It contains practical advice without any of the fluffy stuff. Oh and did I mention? She is a psychology enthusiast! How much more incredible can she get!?

Shyma @ http://letsstartanewlifestyle.blogspot.co.uk

I stumbled across this wonderful young lady when I started promoting my blog through twitter and her blog is lovely. Packed with lifestyle tips and documenting her travels, Shyma's blog is a breath of fresh air and such a great writer with completely original and diverse content. She also, like me, loves the country Turkey!

Keri Smith @ This is a Website

I love my art. And Keri Smith is the author and guerrilla artist who has inspired a lot of my creativity through her fantastic books for rainy (and sunny) days. One of my favorites being The Imaginary World of ________ ,which I seriously need to shuffle on with over the Summer. As well as buying all of her books, I also go onto this page for inspiration when I'm doing anything arty and to see if she is releasing any new creative expression books soon. Fingers crossed!

Special Mentions

Meaghan @ http://meaghan-bethany.blogspot.co.uk

I met Meaghan in my first year of college as we were in the same friendship group and we slowly grew closer as we had deep, and drunk, conversations at parties together and found out we had common ground when it came to blogging. Meaghan's blog is beautifully presented and always has fresh and intriguing content, whether it's about Game of Thrones or social issues. I'm guilty of constantly going onto her page to see if she has released any new posts, it's that addictive!

Maria @ https://inspiredelegance.wordpress.com

Maria is also a college friend who helped me through a lot last year. She runs this amazing fashion and beauty blog, and is the reason why I am incorporating more fashion into my own blog as she makes it look so fun and enjoyable to do through her own passion towards it! As well as writing about her favorite beauty products, she also posts pretty pictures of the products mentioned and has her own YouTube channel where she has already done a Q and A session as well as a make-up routine tutorial!
