  • [AD - Gifted] Thursdays need to start with something sweet and tasty 😋 am I right? Throwback to when we visited @whittleburypark for their stunning Afternoon Tea. I got told the other day that I’m starting to become the “afternoon tea girl of Northants” after the amount I’ve tried and tasted 😂 I’ve still got a long way yet! But Whittlebury Park’s is up there as one of the best! It was a mixture of traditional and modern, with a good balance between sweet and savoury all of which we enjoyed with our big pots of tea which our lovely waitress kindly offered to top up each time! Did you see I have a full foodie guide on what you can eat and drink at Whittlebury Park? It was a really exciting collaboration which was an idea I thought of myself and was super pleased by the reaction! 😄 and you don’t have to be a guest to enjoy these! Head to the link in my bio to read the full guide! Tell me what your favourite foodie occasion is: are you a breakfast, lunch, maybe even brunch, Sunday lunch or afternoon tea person? Let’s devour in our foodie faves 🍰🥂🥑🍓🥓 #NavigatingNorthants
  • But first... coffee! ☕️ happy hump day! The best part of my job being so flexible is that I can literally work from ANYWHERE! Whether it be at home in my home office, in another office or at a coffee shop which means I get to navigate Northants best ones! 🙌🏻 it’s the best of both worlds! As I found myself in Rushden after an awesome interview with @beatrouteradio, I thought I would use my time efficiently and head to @outofofficecoffee at @rushdenlakessc to get through my to-so list 👩🏻‍💻 In a sea of chains, it’s great to see a fantastic independent coffee shop thriving so well here! I have visited their shop in Newport Pagnell before, but I must say this branch was stunning in terms of decor, the staff were incredibly attentive, they had very strong WiFi which was great for working and their coffee was the kick of caffeine I needed 👌🏼 thank you @thelisatype who first suggested I go here as it was definitely a great working spot! Have you visited Out of Office Coffee before at Rushden Lakes? What’s your favourite kind of coffee or caffeinated drink to kick start your day? ☕️ #NavigatingNorthants
  • Abington Park Museum giving me all the decor goals ✨ oh to have nice days out again! Feeling very glum about autumn and wanting it to be that lovely mixture of sunny, with a slight chill in the air with all the leaves looking pretty on the trees 🍂 right now, the dull, grey, rainy weather doesn’t do anything for my mood! But I’m reminded to think about things that make me happy and of which I’m looking forward to: Things that are making me happy: cosy nights in, homemade soup, big cups of coffee, warm jumpers, my lovely house with my boyfriend of which we’ve made into a home ❤️ and I’m excited to appear on the radio this morning at @beatrouteradio and for a weekend of doing absolutely nothing, with a cheeky Gin Club tasting at @ginandtemple! I’m also hoping my grid will have more autumnal photos soon as let’s face it, it’s not been great weather to go out and navigate! Tell me what things are making you happy during the glum weather right now and let’s cheer everybody up ✨ #NavigatingNorthants
  • WHAT A SPREAD 😍 dreaming of all the food consumed over the weekend! I’ve come back from a very foodie weekend in London with my best friend which consisted of exploring Portobello Market, Borough Market, a walk through South Bank and a mooch in Covent Garden ❤️ it was the weekend I needed with my bestie and then I came back to Josh cooking me a roast dinner 🥰 what a gem! But back to Northamptonshire food... a few weeks ago, I contacted Amy at @spr.ead as I was looking for some party food for a surprise party I was hosting for Josh and o m g the food was good 😍 from the cheeses, olives and roasted tomatoes, to how she presented the bread and dips, it was outstanding and everyone really enjoyed having a spread to nibble at! I highly recommend Amy at Spread if you’re looking for someone to cater for a party or big function. Pick ‘n’ mix food is definitely one of my favourites so let us start with telling each other in the comments what nibbly food we love 🧀🥨🥗 #NavigatingNorthants
  • AD | “Can you really take anyone seriously when they are wearing a tits t-shirt?” 😂 in the Collab Club, you can! 💖 let’s talk about Monday and blogging I’m still grinning like a Cheshire Cat over the blogging workshop that I delivered at @thefoxandpeony on Monday, thanks to @pinkcloudingco 💖 it was so lovely to have a room filled with supportive women from small businesses to aspiring bloggers come together to hear little ol’ me! 🥰 I didn’t give myself enough credit and I always want to stay humble, but I did deliver a fantastic workshop and I am proud of my achievements! I am going to be offering follow-up sessions for anyone who has attended the previous blogging workshops so you can have some dedicated 1-2-1 time with me for anything you’re stuck on, want advice on or you just want to share what you’ve done so far 🙌🏻 whether it’s actually setting up a blog, writing your first blog post or getting organised - we’ll get your blogging journey well and truly started! As I’m feeling proud over this moment... in the words of Heather Small: what have you done today (or this week) to make you feel proud? 💭 lets all celebrate each other’s accomplishments! Thank you @love.zumi for taking this lovely shot of me in action! 📸 #NavigatingNorthants
  • Autumn in Northamptonshire 🍂 can you feel that breeze in the air? These type of days are the ones when you don’t quite know what the weather is going to be like and you find yourself still squinting at the sun whilst already complaining it’s cold 🤷🏻‍♀️ I never know whether I’m going to grab my coat or my sunnies! I’m in that “in-between” stage where it’s nice jumpers, jeans, boots and the odd shirt if I need to dress up ✨ I love this little bargain I picked up at @ageuknorthantsretail on St Giles Street who have some great picks for autumn. I managed to get this for £4! 🙌🏻 I’m trying my best to not do too much fast fashion and reuse what I’ve already got whilst picking up bits at Northants independents and charity shops. Where are your favourite independent/charity shops to browse, support and buy from? 👗 I wanna make a list! Thanks @louisepentland for taking this spontaneous snap of me by your very Autumnal bush 📸 #NavigatingNorthants
