Let's Have A Little Chat (1st Birthday, Q&A, YouTube etc)

(Photo: WeHeartIt)



I haven't done a proper chit chat post before but I have quite a few little things to tell you so I thought I'd give one a go! Sorry if you're not into these chatty posts but it just seems easier for me to put all of my 'news' in one post rather than chucked in at the end of a few normal posts. So let's get started...

1st Birthday
RealityLeavesLotsToImagination turns 1 on Friday (1st November)! The past year has absolutely shot past but it's been amazing. As I write this, I have 78 followers, and whilst to some bloggers that may seem like nothing, it is a huge achievement for me! When I started blogging I didn't think 20 people would care about my thoughts/feelings/opinions let alone almost 80. Thank you so so so much for sticking with me and taking the time and the effort to read my ramblings, I can't describe how much it means to me. Every time my phone flashes up to tell me I have a new comment or a new follower, I just can't help but smile because I never thought this blog would last as long as it has, let alone be as successful as it has been. Hopefully I'll reach the 100 followers milestone in the not so distant future (I'm thinking a possible giveaway when I reach my goal?) which is a daunting yet exciting idea. Thanks again to all of you who have read my posts, commented and followed me over the past year. It's been a rollercoaster of a journey but I've really grown to love blogging and I really hope I'll still be here next year.

A Fantastic New Youtuber
This little bit isn't about me, it's about an amazing friend of mine Hannah. Hannah is a lovely lovely lovely person and she recently started a youtube channel, FabulousHannah! She posted her first video today and it's fantastic so please go check it out. And while you're there, I think you should give her channel a bit of love - subscribe, like and comment away! I really think Hannah is going to be huge in the YouTube world, just you wait and see.

Q&A Post?
Last of all, I wanted to talk about a post idea I've had. I was thinking about how many of you have subscribed to my blog fairly recently, so might not know that much about the person behind this blog (me)! I've decided to do a bit of a Q&A (question and answer) post at some point in the next few days answering any questions you have. I'll answer questions about anything and everything, beauty/fashion/lifestyle or anything else! If you have a question (and please please ask something if you can, it'll be a pretty crappy post if I have like 2 questions) just comment on here or drop me and email and i'll answer it! Thanks in advance x

#BritishBloggerSelection
I have recently joined the British Blogger Selection, which is a fantastic group of british bloggers ran by the lovely Ellie! Here's what Ellie says about it ~

"If you participate in #BritishBloggerSelection, you'll get more blog traffic, friends with bloggers you probably didn't even know existed!

How this works: Each week on Saturday I'll send you a theme to blog about and from there you blog about whatever you want related to that theme! You don't have to participate in this every week, just participate when you feel ready! No one's forcing you to do it every week!It really needs more members so I think you should all join! If you want to take part just get in contact with Ellie and send her your blog URL, blog name and your first and last name and she will add you in! The details of getting into contact with her are on her blog!

You can find out a bit more about it here.


I think that's it! Chances are when I post this i'll think of 10 more things I needed to say but for now that's it!

Please remember to comment questions for my Q&A post, and go check out Hannah's channel and the British Blogger Selection!

Lots of Love
