5 REASONS WHY MY SISTER IS MY BEST FRIEND

31/08/2017


Quite recently, I was sent a super cool GRL PWR t-shirt from LOTD and it got me thinking about what exactly girl power is.

Firstly though, let's talk about my outfit. Whilst the mom jeans are an old River Island purchase, the t-shirt is new and one of my new favourite things to wear. Even better, it's actually only £5 - also available in black too. I actually love LOTD as they have so many trendy but affordable pieces, so I'll definitely be having a splurge on there soon!


I am in love with these Miu Miu sunglasses from Smartbuyglasses. They offer full protection from UV rays; using metal with plastic frames and a slight cat eye style.


So, what is "GIRL POWER"? Is it supporting every female out there? Most people think it is. However, if I did that, then I would be supporting every asshole, bitch and toxic female on this planet. Therefore, I support anyone who supports me and I think that's the best way to action girl power in real life. I keep my circle small and it works wonders, trust me.


I have touched upon this lightly in regards to how I am fed up of bitches on the internet being shady with other girls and therefore killing the idea of girl power. However, now it's time to think about the positives. Other than being in a brilliant whatsapp group with a number of other bloggers and supporting every female that I follow on social media; I looked closer to home.


If you are fortunate enough to have a sister, then you'll most likely be able to relate to this post completely. If however if you don't have a sister, then maybe you'll be thinking of a best friend or even your mum when reading all of these points.

Here's 6 reasons why having a sister is great.


1) She's the first person I tell everything to 

Whether it's the latest guy who's pissed me off or if I need advice about a sticky situation, my sister is always there to listen. You should always have one person in your life who will tell you exactly how it is. I am like this as a person and it must run in the family, because my sister is programmed the same way. 

I know I can throw my problems on the table and she will give me her honest opinion about the situation. She will give me the look of death if I am being absolutely ridiculous and cry or rant with me if she agrees with me.


2) We support each other with everything

We are both creative people but in different aspects. I know I can fully rely on my sister to help out on things with my blog if I am really struggling for time or need help with photos before the sun goes down. Even though she hasn't got a clue how blogging necessarily works, it's wonderful to have a person in my life who genuinely supports me with everything.

Likewise, I am as supportive with my sister's creativity. She sings and acts and I am always there at most of her shows, cheering her on and feeling very proud to be related to her. 


3) We laugh about our fights

We have had some fights over the years, about things that I can't even remember. However, our relationship is so strong and unbreakable that we make up straight away and end up laughing about what has just happened.

I am a stubborn Capricorn and don't usually do anything first; text back first, send that good morning message, apologise after an argument etc. However, I do with my little sis.


4) No one else understands our humour

It was just a few weeks ago that we was at a family friend's party and we was changing the lyrics in every song that came on to involve the words 'smelly bums'. A classic example of our weirdness and humour that only my sister and I find funny.

We have so many private and inside jokes and things that will make us glare at each other and then crack up laughing about. It's a pretty special thing. 


5) She's my #1 buddy for Netflix and Chill

Nothing makes us happier than staying in on a Saturday night with a bottle of prosecco, a pizza from the local and some films on the small screen to watch. Saying that, we do also enjoy getting dolled up and heading out for drinks and dancing, but we are definitely humbugs that like to stay in our comfort zones. 

That's 5 reasons why my sister is my best friend. She's fab! I'd love to hear your thoughts on what it's like to have a sister!
