Illustrated Blogger #4: Ella Masters

Here's the next installment in my newest feature - Illustrated Bloggers. Each month I introduce you to one of my favourite bloggers & tell you why they are brilliant. I love them so hopefully you will too!

Who is she? Ella from Ella Masters

What's her site about? A UK lifestyle & art blog

Why is she brilliant?

• Ella's an amazing artist and discovering her blog was part of the reason I got back into painting - it made me realise how much I missed it.
• She's one of those lucky people who has a wild mane of hair that looks awesome not brushed (and was so much fun to paint). 
• Ella has a series of paintings of beardy tattooed men, which I love! There's loads on sale in her etsy shop - I have this guy & I love him!
• Her posts are always really honest, which is very refreshing in the often-sugar-coated world of lifestyle blogging.
• She's always painting or being crafty in some way & it's just SO inspiring!

Illustrated Blogger #3: Nerd Burger

Here's the next installment in my newest feature - Illustrated Bloggers. Each month I introduce you to one of my favourite bloggers & tell you why they are brilliant. I love them so hopefully you will too!

Who is she? Cazz from Nerd Burger

What's her site about? A super colourful site that covers crafts, nerdy things, geeky fashion & her jewellery company

Why is she brilliant?

• In a world of identikit bloggers, Nerd Burger stands out by a MILE. Cazz isn't afraid to be a bit geeky and have fun with what she wears, which I love!
• Nerd Burger jewellery (her shop) is full of kitsch, quirky jewellery, which is perfect if you love comics, superheroes, or have 90s nostalgia (Sabrina hair band, anyone?).
• She has the world's best hair. I want pink and purple hair!
• She writes a lot of hilarious posts, but her montage of Chuck Bass fashion made me laugh SO much.
• Every post is so cheery and positive, and she's such a smiley person (much more than my portrait would suggest!). I always look forward to seeing a new post from her, it's guaranteed to be colourful & fun & cheer me up!

Illustrated Blogger #2: French for Cupcake

Here's the next installment in my newest feature - Illustrated Bloggers. Each month I introduce you to one of my favourite bloggers & tell you why they are brilliant. I love them so hopefully you will too!

Who is she? Claire from French for Cupcake

What's her site about? A fashion & baking blog. She also runs an amazing cupcake company, called the Lily Pink Bakery.

Why is she brilliant?

• French for Cupcake was one of the first blogs I started reading. Before discovering the huge world of lifestyle bloggers, I used to think most bloggers were just super posey fashion models in daft clothes! It was really refreshing and encouraging to find a nice, normal blogger with the motto "Eat cake, wear nice things and be comfortable in your own skin!". 
• Claire's a HUGE Game of Thrones fan girl, and I am very jealous that she's been on set, & met the cast members. 
• Her cakes look amazing, and it's been really inspiring seeing her business take off & become so successful! She sells cakes at a market every week in Belfast - Craig & I have been chatting about a trip to Ireland for ages (I've never been!), and I'm seriously tempted to plan the holiday around a visit to her stall! 
• She owns the most adorable sausage dog puppy called Lola. ADORABLE. 
• We have a really similar sense of style & whenever she posts about a dress or shoes (especially glittery shoes!) I have to hide my debit card to try and resist spending!

Welcome to a brand new feature - Illustrated Bloggers! Each month I'll be introducing you to one of my favourite bloggers & telling you why they are brilliant. I'm also going to (gulp!) paint their portrait... fingers crossed you know who it's meant to be!

First up, it's this lovely lady...

Who is she?  Rosie from A Rosie Outlook

What's her site about? A UK lifestyle & fashion blog

Why is she brilliant? 

• Rosie's blog is a snapshot into her life - full of adventures, photos of the seaside & good advice.
• I absolutely adore the way she writes, it's just like reading letters from an old friend. 
• A Rosie Outlook covers a huge range of topics: DIYs, recipes, wishlists, outfit posts & lovely photos. Perfect for reading with a big cup of tea!
• Rosie has the most adorable schnoodle dog called Bodhi, who makes regular appearances on her blog.  I'm a total sucker for a cute pup face. 
• Her hair is the perfect shade of just-lilac, I have proper hair envy!
