August Non-Beauty Favourites

ByLisa Jayne
Every month on the blog I mention my favourite beauty products from the past month, but I never mention anything non-beauty related that’s been a favourite of mine. I decided this month to try something a bit different and talk about a few things that have been my favourite during August.








Zest Magazine


At the end of July I started Weight Watchers and during August I joined a gym to try and get my fitness in shape. I’d heard a lot about Zest magazine and when I saw it in Tesco’s I decided to pick it up. I’ve been flicking through this constantly over the past week as a form of inspiration. It’s full of great healthy recipes and work out ideas, it’s great to look through if I’m struggling to keep motivated.




Blog Inc


I bought this book last month after seeing a few people mention it in the blogosphere but didn’t get around to reading it until this month. It’s the only book about blogging that I’ve read so I’m not sure if it’s the best, but it’s really helpful when it comes to things like SEO and how to market your blog. It’s a handy book to have to keep referring back to.


 


2013-2014 Diary


I’m bit of a stationary addict, and I love owls, so I couldn’t resist picking up this cute 2013-2014 diary. I’ve been using it to organise myself and my blog, writing which blog post will be on which day and if it’s been scheduled.


 


Kindle


I’ve had my Kindle for nearly 2 years now and sometimes it gets a little neglected, but this month I rediscovered my love for it. I’ve been currently reading The Bling Ring, and I’m slowly working my way through the Amazon Kindle books.




As you can see there’s not been many non-beauty favourites this month, mostly because I’m a complete beauty addict! Let me know if you’ve enjoyed this type of post and I’ll stick another one up next month!

Here are five things you can do for less than a fiver. Online Slots/Pokies Playing games online isn’t something I’d have…

    Valentine’s Day Gift Guide #1
    
	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					
    

    
	
    
		
    Now it’s February everyone’s focus has switched from getting fit and being healthy, to all things Valentine’s Day. I find that Valentine’s Day gifts can often get a little samey, with the usual chocolates and flowers still proving to be popular. Although this year I’ve spotted a couple of different gifts, and thought I’d share them with you in case…

    Blogger Jealousy?

    This is a slightly different post than usual, I guess more of a rant than anything. I’ve seen a lot of negative views written across Twitter in the past few weeks about blogging that’s made me question it a lot.  I started out my blog back in April because I enjoyed reading beauty blogs, and…

Since my last update, I’ve completed another two weeks of the program and have now moved onto my fourth week of the challenge. Who would have thought I’d stuck with it for this long hey?!

    My Business Cards
    
	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					
    

    
	
    
		
    I never had much of an opinion of bloggers getting business cards, I didn’t really understand the concept. In my opinion business cards were for people like my dad, who had a role in a company and needed business cards to professionally promote themselves. I didn’t really see how it would work in the blogging world until…

    I can’t believe it’s the end of January already, this month seems to have completely whizzed by hasn’t it? January is usually a quiet month, but this year it seems to have been packed full of stuff, with lots of trips out and visiting friends. I feel like I’ve hardly been in to sit down…
