What’s up fellow introverts? At the start of this year, and the start of a new decade, who would’ve thought that we’d be ordered to stay at home because of a deadly pandemic? Definitely not me. As a self-confessed introvert, staying at home isn’t hard for me if I’m honest, and the way were living right now isn’t too different from my pre-pandemic day-to-day life. So it left me thinking, how best could I help those who are finding it difficult to cope right now? Read on for some staying at home tips from me, a self-confessed introvert.

I don’t know about you but amidst this current lockdown, my healthy eating habits have gone out the window. And by that I mean disappeared altogether. Having 24/7 access to my snack cupboard is not a good idea, and whilst some may say just don’t buy unhealthy foods to begin with – its not always that easy (especially when you live with other people).

Dr. Martens were always a style of shoe that I thought would never suit me, you’d never catch me wearing a pair in my lifetime. Or so I thought. I don’t know what happened over the years, but slowly my feelings towards these iconic lace-up boots began to change.

I for one am glad statement-making silk scarves are making a return, albeit in new and interesting ways.
