If You’re New Here, Welcome! Get to Know Me With These Posts…

It may not have escaped the notice of some of my regular readers that I’ve had a bit of a hiatus from the blog.

If you’re new here – meaning you’ve subscribed in the past four or five months or so – you may have realised that nothing new has come through to your email Inbox since you signed up.

Then again, that makes me very presumptuous about how you’ve obviously been thinking about my blog all your waking hours after you hit that Subscribe button… let’s pretend that that’s the case, shall we? That it’s all you’ve been thinking about?

Ohhhhhh I know it’s not true (AT ALL). You may not even have any idea who I am because when you signed up you thought, Yes, I’ll subscribe to that blog and get regular updates! That’ll be fun!

Instead, you got… TUMBLEWEEDS. And for that I’m sorry, that’s if you’ve not completely forgotten who I even AM. But without wanting to jinx myself, things are changing round here and I’m fully committed to getting back into the swing of things because I LOVE my blog and I WANT to write and I WANT to shoot photos and I WANT to create (hopefully!) amusing listicles for the sheer enjoyment of it – for me, and for you.

[Reading time: 2 mins]

Therefore, to ease myself back into things, and to give all the lovely new subscribers (and not forgetting the seasoned readers of Not Dressed As Lamb) a taste of what I’m all about, I thought I’d write a short something with a selection of the best blog posts I’ve written in recent years.

Take your pick. There are outfit posts (for the style and fashion lovers who want outfit inspiration); there are the aforementioned listicles (for those who want to think about their own favourite things/least favourite things and more); there are annual bloopers from my outfit shoots; there are posts about mental health and menopause.

This Sunday there will definitely be another post as it’s my birthday AND 12th blogiversary: I never, ever miss posting on that day. It’ll probably also be short and sweet, even though I’m not sure what I’ll talk about yet.

And after that I have more outfit posts planned (already in the pipeline!), more listicles and posts on more serious topics.

I’m getting my blogging sh*t together. I have a whole calendar planned, I tell thee. I hope you’ll stick around for the ride 😀
