Victoria’s Cottage is a Worcestershire based lifestyle blog that celebrates embracing the little things in life to create happiness and fulfillment. Picture days filled with tea, casual fashion and creative activities, all captured in beautiful, natural light photography. Interiors, lifestyle ideas and original recipes are featured regularly and readers particularly enjoy being introduced to new l

uxury products and brands. Seasonally themed posts are an incredibly popular feature, with readers delighting in new ideas to embrace all that each season and celebration has to offer. Launched in June 2015, Victoria’s Cottage has an ever-growing readership and an engaged social media following. My readers long to create a peaceful and happy lifestyle that is centered on home, interiors and family. Country style living and creativity is a constant influence on Victoria’s Cottage. During its first year, Victoria’s Cottage has won a national photography award at The Photography Show, and has since been nominated for an Amara Interior Blog Award. Based on the success of my content, I have recently been asked to write for The Huffington Post, with my first piece scheduled for August 2016.

I’ve been enjoying the most beautiful garden task of them all this morning. So poignant on a day where all of us in the UK are thinking of our own life gardeners - our Fathers. My Dad devoted his whole life to tending his family and even in the ten years he’s been gone, his words and lessons tend us still. We speak about him every single day with such love in our hearts and smiles on our faces. We didn’t really do Father’s Day when he was alive, but he’s naturally on my mind when I see all your beautiful posts. Here to all the Beautiful dads! 💕

I know you’ve seen rather a lot of me this weekend. But, this is a message for us all.

I never feel good enough, thin enough, cool enough, pretty enough, interesting enough. I talk myself out of blogging and instagram because I often feel ‘I’m not enough when compared to anyone else’.

I was taking some pictures on remote this morning and Monty wanted cuddles. So up he came and I thought I could get one of those cute and insta-style shots of the dog over the shoulder. I excitedly looked at my images to see what I’d captured and there was just this.

Another reason why I’m not good enough. But, then I let go of that feeling and realised it was better than that. It was a real, genuine moment of love (and a lot of tongue).

I want an Instagram community where it’s ok for women to look at the camera,(I find it upsetting where digital culture dictates that women are attractive is they submissively look away from the lens) to share the perfect shots and the beautifully imperfect moments, Where we love and support each other in whatever we are trying to achieve because we are all fighting battles.

Thank you for all the support and encouragement this weekend and for making me feel like I’m enough. Because you are enough too, I promise!

How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine with a fluffy white chocolate mousse and a passion fruit centre. If you can rustle me up some Madeira cake soldiers too, I’d be over the moon. Thank you for the most inspiring Easter press show.
