#newblogpost Books I’m Loving - with the autumn/winter weather setting in, it always brings some great tv shows and as much as I love chilling out watching The Resident, Chicago Med, Instinct and a whole host of other things, I realised that I haven’t been reading much... so I thought I’d post a few books I’m loving that I have read (or gone back to this year)... there’s one on my still to read list. Head over to the blog to see what they are. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/10/19/books-im-loving/ What are your fave books? What are your recommendations? I’d love some new books to read/listen to... Comment below. #gilltheglasgowgirl #glasgowbloggers #scottishbloggers #booksimloving #personaldevelopment #30plusblogs #theeverygirl #chictribeuk #books #kindlebooks #amazonkindle #aff

This came up in my Facebook memories today... it’s one of my favourite books from childhood... The Velveteen Rabbit. If you haven’t read it yet (whether you have kids or not, you should, it’s worth it). #gilltheglasgowgirl #thevelveteenrabbit #childrensbooks #memories #chicldhoodmemories #reallife #lovedbacktolife #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #30plusblogs #chictribeuk

On Saturday I had the joy of celebrating a friend’s baby shower. She’s due in a couple of weeks, so we got the girls together for some food and fun and gave her some gifts for bambino and some treats for her and hubby too. It was a great afternoon spending time with some incredible ladies. There was so much amazing food. I forgot to take a photo of the vol-au-vents and sandwiches but there was some great savoury options too. A great afternoon was had by all! #gilltheglasgowgirl #qualitytimewithfriends #babyshower #afternoontea #somuchfood #friendship #chictribeuk #saturdayafternoonfun

#newblogpost Owning Your Story... Even When It Hurts - with World Mental Health Day, it seemed like an apt time to share this post... I could have put it off a bit longer, but I came across this @brenebrown quite last week and it seemed very fitting. If we don’t own our story, we end up letting it define us rather than letting us strengthen us to become a better version of ourselves. Head over to the blog to see some of my story and some other thoughts on this! https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/10/12/own-your-story-even-when-it-hurts/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #ownyourstoryevenwhenithurts #ownyourstory #glasgowblogger #glasgowbloggers #glasgowbloggernetwork #scottishbloggers #scottishblogger #scottishbloggernetwork #lifestyleblogger #wisdomforlife #brenebrownquotes #brenebrown #inspirationalquotes #30plusblogs #linkinbio #chictribeuk

#Repost @recognisedstore ・・・ So excited for @recognisedstore Launch day today (head over to their feed and check them out)... but more importantly, it’s World Mental Health Day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Whether you’ve experienced a mental health issue or know someone who has, today is a day to stop and think about those you care about. Today is a day to recognise an issue which affects so many of us, stand by those we love and say it’s ok not to be ok! Massive steps have been taken to bring mental health into the light, though still so many of us suffer in silence, too afraid to speak out, for fear of shame or embarrassment. Recognised was birthed as a way to spark conversation when there are no words and let someone else know that you recognise what they are going through. We’re all about recognising people and the issues that impact our lives, and we think mental health is great place to start. Not only is it an issue personally close to our hearts, it’s an issue which affects each and everyone of us. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We couldn’t think of a more fitting day to launch our first Statement Popon® which supports anxiety and depression and are proud to be partnering with two incredible charities, helping create a world free of stigma and taboo and providing lifesaving information and support. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For those of you who have purchased the Dove Popon, try sharing with someone today what the Popon stands for and why it's important to you. You never know the impact you could have. 15% off all orders today.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #WorldMentalHealthDay #IStandWithYou #MakeYourStatement #gilltheglasgowgirl #scottishblogger #glasgowblogger #mentalhealthawareness #itsoknottobeok #chictribeuk

#newblogpost Today I’m talking all things Arbonne. It’s not sponsored or an ad... just supporting another friend’s business so give @rosshamiltonn_ a follow and head over to the blog to find out more about the amazing skincare I was kindly gifted and some of their other great products available. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/10/09/arbonne/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #arbonne #supportsmallbusiness #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #30plusblogs #lifestyleblogger #chictribeuk #glasglowgirlsclub #linkinbio

How often are we so focussed on our phones that we forget to look up?... Don’t get me wrong, I love Social Media, but it needs to be in its rightful place... All too often, we forget to look up at the beauty in the world around us or listen to those who need an ear and we’d rather write than use our voice to communicate to those around us. We all have a voice that is worthy of being heard. It’s important to take time in your day to detach from your phone, look up and do real life with those around you. . . . #gilltheglasgowgirl #fourthwisemonkey #taketimetolookup #listentoothers #doreallife #socialmedia #iphonedetox #chictribeuk

#saturdayselfcare Thankful for a quiet weekend. Very much enjoying having a chilled day at home, listening to some great music. Loving Revive Us by @lukehellebronth and @annahellebronth that was released this week. I had the joy of hearing it sung @gasstreetchurch when I was there last month. Definitely a well timed song for the season. #gilltheglasgowgirl #reviveus #lukeandannahellenbronth #worship #gasstreet #10thingsimthankfulfor #last90days #chictribe #chictribeuk

#newblogpost This week saw the start of @msrachelhollis #last90days challenge. 90 days until the end of the year... that’s 90 days to finish the year well rather than coast to the end of the year, eat all the good food, then hit reset in January 2019 with a list of New Years resolutions that are often difficult to keep. Due to being unwell since August, I’ve had to tailor the 5 to Thrive to suit me a bit better. Head over to the blog to find out more about my first week of the challenge. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/10/05/last90days/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #chictribeuk #chictribe #5tothrive #motivation #inspiration #intention #finishtheyearstrong #gratitude #10thingsimthankfulfor #timetochange #newseasons #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #30plusblogs #30plusblogger

Loving my @onelifeleaders journal for writing down all the things... it’s nice to actually put pen to paper rather than just making notes in my phone which I usually do. I’ve been writing notes from the Onelife conference last weekend and some reflections on it, daily gratitude as part of @msrachelhollis #last90days challenge, goals for the rest of the year and beyond. Look out for a blog post tomorrow all about my experience of the first week of the last 90 days challenge. #gilltheglasgowgirl #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #30plusblogs #onelifeleaders #onelifejournal #onelife #gratitude #10thingsimthankfulfor #chictribeuk #chictribe #glasglowgirlsclub #reflectionsonleadership #sevenspheresofinfluence

On Monday this week, it saw the start of @msrachelhollis #last90days challenge so yesterday after work, before meeting a friend, I decided having been stuck inside all day, I needed to get out and get some fresh air. I’m so glad I did. Loved an unfiltered walk round part of Queens Park listening to a friends new songs that he’d written this year. #gilltheglasgowgirl #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #hometownglory #queenspark #nofilter #autumnfeels #autumnwalks #lookupandseebeauty #instaglasgow #fwis #mustardcardiganofdreams

#newblogpost Pinafore dresses... cool or uncool, that is the question? I’d been on the hunt for a pinafore dress for ages and had given up, then came across two beauties from @fatface which I’m loving! Head over to the blog to see the two Fat Face dresses I picked up recently and also some other great finds available on the high street. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/10/02/pinafore/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #pinaforedresses #fashionblogger #fashiondiaries #fashionover30 #30plusblogs #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #fatface #susandenimpinaforedress #dedeecordpinaforedress #chictribeuk #autumnfeels #autumnfashion #midsizestyle

#newblogpost You know by now, I love @benefitcosmeticsuk and yes I’m biased since I used to work there 😆 but today on the blog I’m talking about their newest brow product! It’s amazing (and that’s hard for me to say, I have some firm favourites already). Head over to the blog to find out more. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/09/28/brow-must-haves/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #beautyblogpost #glasgowblogger #scottishbloggers #30plusblogs #benefitcosmeticsuk #benefitbrows #browcontourpro #browmusthaves #beautyglasgow #dontforgetyourbrows #browsframetheface #theimportanceofbrows #chictribeuk

Just listened to the Rise Podcast... I signed up to do #last90days to help finish the year stronger than it started. 2018 has progressively got better... gratitude definitely shifts perspective, something I’ve always known it but not always acted on. I set some goals this year and for once I have stuck to them. I was determined to lose weight and I have. Now to set some business goals and other things for the end of the year) Thanks to @msrachelhollis for a great Podcast and of course the book. If you’ve still not read Girl Wash Your Face, what you waiting for?! Love being part of #chictribe and #chictribeuk Its a great opportunity to meet new friends. Looking forward to finishing the year strong. If you haven’t signed up for #last90days head over to www.thechicsite.com/90days and join in. It starts on 1st October. #gilltheglasgowgirl #finishtheyearstrong #whenyoureallywantsomethingyouwillfindaway #whenyoudontreallywantsomethingyoullfindanexcuse #rachelhollis #gwyf #girlwashyourface

All the coffee required today when it’s a busy day, no lunch break and heading to a meeting. 😴 Roll on the weekend. Wonder if I can take all day off rather than just a half day?! 😆 #gilltheglasgowgirl #coffee #caffienefix #busywednesday #chictribeuk #costacoffee #theeverygirl

#newblogpost These Boots Are Made For Walkin’ and this time of year, it’s all about boots! Here’s some of my faves including my @riverisland ones from a few years ago, well worth the investment for a good pair of tan leather boots! Head over to the blog to see the best boots from the high street in a range of styles and colours to suit all budgets. https://gilltheglasgowgirl.com/2018/09/25/these-boots-are-made-for-walkin/ #gilltheglasgowgirl #thesebootsaremadeforwalkin #allaboutboots #autumnfeels #boots #ankleboots #chelseaboots #calfboots #kneehighboots #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #shoelover #chictribeuk

#sundaystrollin It’s officially autumn, the leaves are falling. Lovely morning walk to church. A bit chilly but sunny so that’s the main thing. I was running late but snapped a couple of pics on my way. Making the most of the sunshine while we still have some. #gilltheglasgowgirl #autumnfeels #sundayvibes #autumnleaves #changingseasons #30plusblogs #mustardcardiganofdreams #glasgowblogger #scottishblogger #chictribeuk #glasglowgirlsclub #septemberweekend #sogladtobeofftomorrow #longweekendvibes #longweekend #fwis
