How to Get Rid of Clutter

Hey everyone,

They say you can tell a lot from a person by how they keep their house. And most of the time this is true but lets make it even easier we won't look at the whole house, better? How about we only look at one room. Okay good we're to know you more now...

Lets look at your chest of drawers.... damn!

Unfortunately this is a very familiar sight and we quickly just learn to deal with it and carry on. But seriously this is nuts, the draws can bearly close and it's only a matter of time until the bottom of the draws starts bowing. Clearly I have too much going on here.
The picture above is all the stuff that come out of one draw 

I found the best way to start is the clear out the space your working on. When your home is filled with clutter, trying to tackle a mountain of stuff can be quite overwhelming. I found being ruthless was the only way, if I haven't worn it in a year its got to go!

Where do you start when you want to declutter?

For underwear, even if I folded it super neat it would slide around through daily section, so had to come up with a better solution.

I came across these awesome Drawer Dividers from MIU COLOR, which have made things so easy. Huge thumbs up on price only £12.99

After removing over 50 items of underwear this is the result. What an improvement! I even has compartments to spare.

Now when I open my drawers I see exactly what I have, this is also a great way to control myself buying things I don't need. These are beautifully sized with enough pockets to fit all the tiny bits of clothing I have. The outer frame is sturdy, so should do me right for some time. The colour is neutral enough to blend in with whatever your wardrobe might look like.

The different sized compartments make it easy to store bras, panties, socks even items such as boxed jewellery, perfume bottles and most things that get stuffed into a drawer.

I am so happy with these, I can't wait to get into the rest of my drawers and start organizing. Officially my biggest bargain of the year - so far...

How to be Happy Being Single in the Summer

Hi everyone,

It's summer and lets face it there are couples everywhere but fear not, being single can actually be pretty awesome. I'm going to share with you some things to avoid to ensure you still have fun.

Before we get started a little disclaimer I am not expert and even after reading and following these rules you are still miserable and bitter - I'm sorry! 

1. Couples
I'm not saying avoid all couples, obviously. Some couples are hilarious and positive and bring best out of you. I'm talking about those couples that make you feel like shit, the ones that greet you with sad moon face or talk to you as if you less accomplished in life. No, no, no we don't need that. If they make you feel miserable every time you see them, stop seeing them - done!

2. Exes
It might seem like a good idea at the time, and you might try to convince yourself it wasn't that bad - *sigh* ...Back up! Its like starring in your own version of Groundhog Day, any attempt to continue it is futile. However we're only human, so just remember why it didn't work in the first place.

3. Depressing Single People
If you want to be a dynamic singleton you need to hang out with other sassy singles. Try not to give too much time to those depressing needy people, it could kill your vibe.

4. Internet Dating
The internet may be a fun and amazing way to meet new people, but lets face it - its a little sad too. The fabulous, single, intriguing version of you does not retire from the universe so easily. Don't become a home hermit!

5. Routine
Work, Home, Eat Repeat. Ok so we all fall victim to that pattern but where possible doing different and spend the day with different people. Having variety in your circle of peeps is never going to be a bad thing.

More importantly you should be happy in your own skin and remember to smile 

I hope you enjoyed list of tips for singles at summer, if you've had a different experience or have other tips/rules please share in the comments :)

Thanks,

Faye
