In January I posted a story about my periods and feeling a bit lost with regards to the length of them and pain I was in. I was in the bath with my phone (I had about 3 baths in January where I was DETERMINED to read a book, but alas) and as with so many things I write about and share, wanted to try and reach other people who may have been feeling like they were in a similar boat. I wasn’t sure if it was TMI or the right place (it isn’t, it was) but I was overwhelmed with generous, helpful and kind responses which truly bowled me over, and I promised to share anything I found.

Naturally, I didn’t quite realise how long it would take me to go through them all. I’ve spent the last few weeks collating them all and trying to pop a few slides together that I hope will be useful and offer anyone who needs it a bit of hope, like you all gave me. As like I said before, I really don’t think it should be normal or fair that we just ‘get on with it’ and assume that pain is a given part of a life that comes with being a woman.

Although I know there are messages I've missed (because of my snail pace and Instagram’s polite policy of making messages older than 3 days disappear) I've tried to find as many as I can (if you did kindly message and I’ve missed it please feel free to send a nudge) but I hope that in some way, by sharing these I can repay that sense of community forward. Reading them through, I feel incredibly hopeful that I can start to understand my cycle, periods and body better, as well as supporting myself using a myriad of things that feel very accessible and within reach.

Thank you as ever for always meeting me with support, advice and conversation. It is a very special privilege of this job to have so many brilliant people within reach to talk to, and I’ll never take it for granted 🤍 feel free to pop anything else below/ask any questions... (continued in comments)

A Sunday well spent brings a week of leftover bagels, cake slices and some blooms to see in the week 💐 (Mike also said he had never been to Columbia Road, so like the good fashion blogger I am I initiated him to the flower girlie club today)

Happy to announce we are accepting members into the Modestly Brilliant Outdoor Jumper Society 🧶 (two brilliant finds from @threesistersldn)!

Cosy evenings and crisp bright mornings at @limewoodhotel- arguably one of the most special places I've ever had the privilege to stay it. It all sounds a bit over the top saying things like that, but driving along the road flanked by wild horses and into the drive in the New Forest- it's like escaping into another little world. From cosy fires, clear night skies (which, admittedly February has been very kind to us with), ice cream in bed, books with double breakfasts and crispy banana bread (a level of indulgence I could very much get used to) and forest walks with inappropriate footwear, @limewoodhotel you're a true slice of magic. (ad- press rate, but all thoughts very very much my own. It's the ultimate special occasion place)

A series of seriously impressive book nooks at the ever stunning @limewoodhotel (where I am mentally still currently residing) (also the perfect place for daytime overdressing) 🌞 (ad- press rate)
