Saving Money for Your Wedding

Once you and your partner are engaged, you may very well become swept up in the magic of the occasion. Knowing that you will be legally bound to the love of your life can be an amazing feeling. In spite of this, you will need to keep yourself at least a little grounded. Planning for a wedding is usually not an easy feat and, depending on the type of wedding you want to have, can be a costly one too. To be able to make the most of your special day, you may need to put some savings plans into place.

5 Podcast Recommendations That'll Improve Everything.

Okay, perhaps the title of this post is a slight exaggeration, but have I mentioned how much I love podcasts? I may not have said much about it online, but if you know me in person, then you'll probably be sick of the number of times I say "Well, I was listening to this podcast...".

But as someone who spends probably 2 hours a day on public transport, I have plenty of time to fill - and podcasts hit the mark.

The most liked: how social media is redefining fashion

In recent years, the race to be the most liked on Instagram has radically redefined how we perceive ourselves and how celebrities are perceived on social media. In the worlds of music and fashion, ‘likes’ are now essential to a clothing brand’s or artist’s overall success.

Alter Ego, Brunei, #BruneiCafeSeries - Brunei Coffee Shop

Alter Ego, located in Kiulap near Regent Square, is possibly one of the most aesthetically pleasing cafes that I've ever been in. Not only does it feature raw brick walls, marble and plenty of copper - but the ceiling is full of hanging plants. It is literally the most instagrammable cafe in Brunei. You heard it here first.

The Brew at Mr Baker Bakeshop, Brunei, #BruneiCafeSeries - Brunei Coffee Shop

Brew at Mr Baker Bakeshop is probably one of the longest running coffee shops in Brunei - aside from the Coffee Bean. And by longest running - it means that it's been around since about 2014 (don't quote me on that). As of 2018, Mr Baker Bakeshop has several branches but the one with the coffee shop is their Gadong branch.

But for a long time, it just sold bread - with coffee as a secondary. Yet recently, they've had a bit of a renovation and completely redone their coffee shop part - and it's great.

Hi, I'm Ellie and I'm A Style Blogger That Isn't A Size 8

I couldn't decide whether I wanted to post these pictures or not. In fact, these were sat as part of a draft post for a good few weeks before I decided that I liked them too damn much to let them go to waste. Because they didn't feel like the type of photos that other style bloggers were putting out there.
