Welcome To Ems Lens (The Blog Version)

Hello!

So I guess the first part of writing a blog is an introductory post right? Who am I, what's this blog gonna be about and all that jazz. Well actually that's not really a guess and this isn't really my first blog post..

A good 5 years ago I started writing a blog which you may or may not know as Emilyke Beauty. I absolutely loved it until after a few years the enjoyment started to wear away, the posts became less frequent and gradually I ended up stopping the running of that blog about a year ago. I decided to use that time on something I do enjoy, my YouTube channel, also named Ems Lens. Hopefully a lot of you reading this will have come over from the YT land; comment 'unicorns' below if you have! (YouTube phrase right there).

So how did I get from ending one blog to starting another? The past month or so I've really missed blogging. I've got back into reading blogs and I've been itching to write my own. I decided to make a completely new one as I felt like Emilyke Beauty just wasn't me anymore. The name, the layout, the style, it just doesn't feel like me. I feel like I tried so hard to keep it going during those last few months that it became more of a chore than a hobby.

I want to go in a new direction with this blog and make it a lot more lifestyle based with beauty and fashion thrown in when I fancy it. There's always things I want to write about, just talk about and have a chat about. I want to talk about cool things I've done or I want to do, cool places I've been to or want to go to, things that I'm thinking. Just share my thoughts and experiences.

Now's probably a good time to tell you a couple of things about myself; we'll start with basics. I'm 21, I live in Hertfordshire and I've got an 8 week old kitten so you'll be seeing a lot of that on here. My favourite things are cats, pizza and despicable me. SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIE!

Those questions answered, I'll leave you with a couple of things I'd like to share right now. I will be dressing my blog up in a snazzy new layout very super soon. (I'm being impatient and simply can not wait to start posting!). If you want to find out more about me hop on over to my YouTube channel and follow me on my social media links below. Also feel free to ask any questions in the comments and thank you so much for reading my first post and supporting the start up of this blog!
