Favorite Things + Sponsor: The Lilac Linnet


Oh my, this new lens! The Canon 50mm f1.8 II lens takes amazing pictures, gets that awesome blurry background, and is lightweight (which is perfect for when I use my camera for work). I was considering getting the 50mm f/1.4, but that's $400 whereas this one is only $125. If you're looking for a new lens, this particular Nifty Fifty is where it's at. 

I have to talk about this marquee sign: How freaking adorable right? It's from Target for only $10, so get your butts over there now. I've putting put it on every night before bed and it creates the nicest glow. 

A few fun links:

♥ Mr. Kate's thoughts on bullying. This blog post is all sorts of awesome!

♥ 15 (amazing) career tips from smart women! I love this one from Nora Ephron:
"Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim."
♥ Gummy bear sangria?! Count me in!

♥ If book nerds ran the world! Yes!

♥ Love this: How to turn anything into a brooch.

♥ These animated gifs of love are so romantic and beautiful!

♥ A color thesaurus!

Hi, I'm Llinos, I'm 27 years old and I live in Cardiff, UK.  My name is Welsh for 'linnet', hence my blog name!  I've been following Sara for a while and I am happy to be sponsoring her this month.  I love blogging about books, creative projects and daily life.  I hope my blog comes across as authentic and heartfelt.  I also share a lot about my previous health problems including cancer and depression.  I would love to see you over there and hear your thoughts!

  6. That fox sweater is so darn cute. The Vane seems like such a great concept. I'm definitely going to check the app out after poking around their website. It'd be nice to replace my current weather app with it.

  8. Thanks! Once I got the new lens, I saw how amazing the pictures are in comparison. It's $140 CAD, so not too bad.
