Taking a break from blogging

August 6, 2017

Hey loveliess, I hope you’re well!

If you’re a regular reader, you’d have noticed I’ve been a bit MIA lately. I decided to take a break from blogging. It was unplanned, just kind of happened. In the last two weeks, I’ve reflected upon my journey so far and wondered why I stopped opening the laptop and writing.

 I started blogging back in September ’16, as a way to keep busy while Shane and I saved hard for our house. I never anticipated I’d fall in love with it like I did, and I was hooked from day one. I constantly looked for ways to improve my writing and create new refreshing content. It took up almost all of my spare time and I found myself getting a tad overwhelmed with it all. I put to much pressure on myself to compete with everyone else and make a name for myself. I guess over the last few months the pressure built and it became to much to maintain. I found myself creating content that wasn’t 100%, content I didn’t believe in and I was publishing posts, just for the sake of getting something up.

Obviously, blogging isn’t what I do for work, it’s something I do for fun, but it started to feel like work and there was no time for me to switch off between this and my full time job. I think a break is what I needed and I’m currently in the process of jotting idea’s down about which direction I want to take my blog. I still want to focus on the beauty element, because ultimately that’s my passion and I enjoy it, but I want to start creating content that is useful, meaning for and inspiring.

I hope you understand why this break is important for me, and I promise I will be back soon, hopefully with a fresh outlook and posts you guys really enjoy. In the mean time, I’ll continue to support the bloggers I love, connect with you all and be a little more present on socials!
Thanks for everything so far, it means so much to me.

Kisses and Love
Jazziepickles
xoxo

My love hate relationship with INSTAGRAM

July 15, 2017

Hey loveliess, I hope you’re well!

I’m 100% guilty of being glued to my phone 24/7 and at every given spare moment in the day. I constantly scroll through my socials and interact with the beautiful people I follow. My follow count across twitter, Facebook and Pinterest have really improved, but there’s one app that I constantly battle with, that app goes by the name of INSTAGRAM!
