#Playlist: Ghosts

Hi everyone! I wasn't sure whether to do this or not, but I'm worried that my content is suffering these days and I'm not putting out the quality I want. So I want to be sure I'm taking time to work on them properly and making sure I am including all the information I want…

My Current TBR Pile, as of March 2018

When I first sat down to write this I was thinking that this would end up being a very long post. This was because it seemed like my TBR pile had finally reached the heights of my G-Dragon poster. Then I realised that I could split the pile somewhat. I tend to leave my current…

Some Songs and an Attempt To Sum Up My Month

Hi everyone! It's the last day of February now. Compared to January, this month really flew by and lots of things happened. I didn't just want to write about my month, so I tried to find the best songs in my music library to express the things that happened. Since I listen to a lot…

Twenty Thoughts from A Twenty Swanna (i.e. it’s my Birthday.)

Hi everyone! It will be my twentieth birthday as this post rolls out. I can't quite believe that I've survived two decades of life so I'm kind of chuffed. Did I do anything particularly special? Er... no. My regular outing with Tray has had to be moved due to uni things and on top of…

Books I’ve Started and Will (Eventually) Finish

Recently, I was putting all my TBR pile together to take photos and it was looking to be a very long post, but then I took the opportunity to split my pile up a little and it ended up like this. I currently am actively reading two books, so they aren't included here. The books…

The Sunshine Blogger Award

Hi Everyone! I recently got nominated for this Award tag by Hoi Yin Li, who like me also blogs about beauty and some stuff about her life. I've particularly enjoyed looking back through her old posts about her university studies in Fashion. She's really lovely; you should totally go check out her posts! Rules: 1.…

[Makeup and Chatter] Lunch at The Botanist

I don't know about you, but I'm really enjoying this unintentional 'Makeup and Chatter' series. I get to talk about a good day with nice memories at a place I haven't been to before, as well as share a makeup look. Oftentimes posts with only the former don't do so well but I really do enjoy…

Books of 2018, #1: Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman (The Illustrated Edition)

Neverwhere was probably my first Neil Gaiman book. Either that or The Graveyard Book. I read it years ago and I can't remember what I thought of Neverwhere only that there was a London Below and a Door and an Angel and that the book was Good and somewhere on my positive scales and that…

Lipsticks in Rotation – January 2018

Hi everyone! In order to help me along with my goal of not buying any lipsticks this year, I, of course, have to shop my own stash a little. I wanted to wear more of the lipsticks down below and for some of them, also figure out if I like them enough against my other…

My Photography Process

As another one of the Twenty Swans' 3 year specials, I am including my current process for taking photos as my draft got long enough that I thought I should separate it from the main process post. Again, this is with a focus on beauty blogging. I'm not gonna lie - my camera does so…
