(In case you’ve not seen these posts before my Unmissable Reads are a monthly round-up of things I’ve seen, watched and liked in the blogosphere that I’m sure you’ll love too.)
Everything’s shifted a bit at the end of this month – Monday’s #iwillwearwhatilike post went out yesterday because I now take bank holidays off, and this monthly post is a week late because I was up to my eyeballs in essential GDPR admin last week… thank goodness THAT’S over!!
All sorts of interesting things caught my eye this month. I love how summer affects what we blog about – clothes, makeup, attitudes and subject matters all become lighter and more refreshed somehow.
Do have a read of these great links – you never know who or what you might discover that makes your day/week/month!

Do what you CAN’T. A fun, inspirational video for all those people who are told what they can’t do. Just do it anyway.
I totally love the black-bra-under-a-white-blouse look but keep forgetting and reach for a nude bra every time. Ann has inspired me to give it a try.
Even with all the amazing cake designs around at the moment I still saw a cake that took my breath away – I NEED this for my birthday in July.
Liz’s blog has just turned five and she talks about how she’s progressed and, most interestingly, how different blogging (and her blog) was back then.
Margaret has a love-hate relationship with the expression “Girl Boss” – I get exactly where she’s coming from, but I still love it all the same.
A real life capsule wardrobe for work and play by Alison (simple but effective, it will make your mornings so much easier).
No makeup-makeup for older women: Michelle is 50 and does pure, truly minimal makeup to perfection.
In the same vein: it’s really refreshing seeing a beautiful young woman bucking the Instagram make-up trend and going almost natural as her go-to makeup look.
These “work from home outfits” illustrations are embarrassingly accurate.
Hayley reminds us not to judge other people’s fashion choices now that it’s summer (which I, as the blogger who kicked off the #iwillwearwhatilike hashtag, totally agree with).
The Queen of Statement Everything, Lisa, shows how to wear statement earrings with pizzazz (her grandmother’s word)…!
Annette wears a white trouser suit with a splash of colour to her daughter’s graduate fashion show and looks like a proper fashion mom (if there is such a thing). Check out the stunning black and white shot.
Yvonne gives us the most important styling tip you’ll ever need.
