spend a week with me *romanticising life* (apartment change, baking, beach, christmas!)

It’s honestly the best part of my week when you upload. Your videos are so comforting and honestly inspiring for me to create a happy and healthy lifestyle ❤

love your energy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You are stunning 😍

the christmas tree is MAGICAL 💗💗

Losing your mum is so life altering it’s so hard to actually process. No one can ever understand until youve been through it. I often prefer to avoid thinking about it because the thought they’re gone forever is too overwhelming.

Loved your video as always ❤Thank you for being so open with us. Sam is an absolute legend for putting the Christmas tree up. Your outfits in this video are amazing and you look gorgeous (as always) 😊And maybe we need a cooking/baking video once in a while 😊

I love how good you are at expressing how you feel and how relatable it always is. Thank you for being vulnerable on here, I am sure it helps a lot of persons going through similar things. 🩷 I also love the exercice your acunpuncturist gave you, I will definitely try it too 🎀🤝

I just lost my dad and we didn’t have the closest relationship. So it’s been tough processing my thoughts and emotions. Lots of regret.

Please do a makeup tutorial!!💗💗 Your makeup looks stunning💗💗

i’m still grieving the loss of my dog who passed 4 months ago, he was my child and my everything and i think about him every day and i don’t think i’ll ever get over it, it’s hard to realise they’re gone and not coming back. i know it’s not the same as losing a parent, i have no idea how i would cope or survive if that were to happen, sending you all the love Soph❤

You cannot tell me that Sam isn’t the biggest walking green flag that you have ever seen. He is the sweetest 💕

aww girl, my mom passed away 6 years ago when I was 23 and my dad was already out of the picture. Grief is crazy and pops up in weird ways, I feel her the most when I feel like I'm doing something that would make her proud. Your mom is looking down and so proud of everything you've done and how you've grown into a wonderful woman, she's going to be there on your wedding day spiritually. <3

you should make your own jewellery line!!

I absolutely love the dress you wore in the beginning so so cute Soph🥰🥰

❤❤❤

I recently lost my mum to cancer as well and I just wanted to say thankyou for sharing ❤️ I feel like I have avoided it in the exact same way you did (focusing on the future and keeping busy). I’m definitely going to try the candle and writing a letter idea. Thanks again for sharing ❤️❤️

Had to stop the video just to say how beautiful u looked when u put ur hair up in a clip ; you looked effortlessly pretty ✨️

The black + white fit is actually giving Aspyn Ovard 🔥👌🏼🫶🏼

love your vlogs sm xxx!

I love the blue striped shirt with the yellow cuffs!

I still can’t get over my Dad passing away, it’s one of the hardest things. I avoid talking about the fact I feel guilty like if I got to him a few seconds either and things like that

That collage board was very Sara coded 🎀

My favorite person, who lets me escape from my everyday life—I love you.❤❤❤

How did you learn to do your makeup? I never had anyone to teach me but want to try a more pretty/feminine ❤every day look!

Sending you so much love with sharing about your mom❤❤ you’re doing amazingly well and the journal idea sounds like a helpful connection ❤

Hey Sophie! I noticed that in all your videos there‘s this noice in the background and I‘m pretty sure it‘s because of your camera. Maybe you could try filming with a mic, I think it would improve the sound quality immensely? ✨

I can really resonate with your chat about grief. I lost my mum when I was 16 and similarly, I didn't process any of these emotions, just went back straight to school and daily life and repressed that grief. Only now can I see how it has affected me, how the emotions got stored in my body, how that repression has put me into freeze state... It's a lot of work to process that and sit still with our feelings, but we can do it 💗 Also, love the festive vibes ! Sending hugs xx

Sending you so much love 💗

Soph I lost my mum when I was 14 so I 110% understand how you feel. I didn't process it. I think I wanted to feel like a normal kid and not the kid who's mum died.
Flash forward and I'm in my 30s I've lost other family and still not dealt with it and I'm only just realising that maybe I should speak to someone.
I love the idea of letters.❤

Lolol as a Minnesota girlie, this was a delightful little callout. The accent is a long O. Also, “ope” is said a lot

Last week was the 10 year anniversary of my grandma passing and it’s just so crazy how quickly time passes. Every year, around that date, I feel like I just get into a funk and sometimes it doesn’t even occur to me the reason until I notice the date and I’m like oh yeah. But grief is definitely not a linear thing, there are some days that it hits so hard, you feel like it just happened and other days, it’s not as consuming. I’m sure the fact that you’re planning your wedding is adding to the grief you’re feeling about your mom. I always think about my grandma when it comes to big events too, even like me moving to another state and just knowing she would’ve loved visiting me. But I also appreciate the grief sometimes because it reminds me of her and our moments and I never want to forget those. Thank you for sharing with us ❤️

I love your videos so so much you’ve gotten me into reading this year again( such an anxiety reliever ) your videos are so relaxing to watch, such inspo and positive vibes , thinking of you at this time , grief comes and goes and on big occasions you wish they were here to see it as you feel you need them , sending love to you ❤❤

My mom has passed as well, I’m also engaged and currently planning my wedding.. It hits different knowing the moments you are missing out on with your own mom. It’s been 4 years and she was still the first person I went to call when my fiancé proposed. Sending love ❤️

Love this vlog ❤

Your videos bring me so much joy, peace and comfort!

Hey Sophie, where is the black top you wore on your date night to your wedding tasting food from? It’s gorgeous 😍 btw, absolutely love your videos! xx

My mom died a few months ago (I’m sixteen). I wanted to thank you for talking about your grief, because i’ts nice to know that more people deal with the same things. I think im also gonna try and write letters to my mom with a candle on, that sounds like a great idea to process my emotions better but I also think is going to be very emotional. I would like to give you a big hug because you deserve it!💞✨☺️

My Dad passed when I was 14, which for me is 9 years ago, and I completely understand everything you’re talking about. It feels like initially every mental health issue had to do with grief, even though it might not have been, but when it gets past 5 years it’s easy to forget because it’s been 5 years, that’s ages! But like, it’s not??? And I think when you lose someone when you’re a teenager, adults expect you to handle it in a certain way, and for me when I was “mature” about it I was praised for it, so I just kept handling my emotions and pushing down actually grieving my Dad because I was getting compliments for handling everything so well, and taking care of my Mum, and so on and so on. Sorry a ramble, but essentially I’m with you, and it’s so hard to navigate but you are doing well, and you are not alone. Thank you for reminding me I’m not either 🫶

soph you're such a strong and inspirational woman!!! you make me grateful for life and highlight all the little things that bring so much joy! lots of love x

Thank you for sharing about the grief! You never know how it will impact you even years later

I feel 100% the same with your mum. I lost my dad who was my bestfriend at 14 & feel that because its been 10 years I should be over it, but im not. thankyou for sharing about writing a letter, i think thats be so helpful for me

i also lost one of my parents when i was really young and it’s just so weird. i think that because i was so young i didn’t have the “capacity” to deal with it so i hid it? and i didn’t even feel the loss until some years later, i thought i was over it, until suddenly it hit me. i love that you talked about this❤

Omg acupuncture and therapy in one?! So good! 😅 I really appreciated that little chat Soph ❤ My mum passed away this year and I feel like I have a very similar personality to you and have probably done the same sort of thing just distracting myself with positive stuff. I really love that letter writing and candle idea and might just steal that for myself too. I know there will be times that are harder than others and you going through all this wedding planning without your mum has got to be really tough (something I am quite terrified to do in future tbh) and bringing up so many feelings and I just want to say you’re so strong and I’m here if you ever need a random person to talk to 😅🤍

Eye mask = best sleep

My mum passed away this year, I’m 23 and I definitely felt like there is so much more for me to through with my grief and I’m obviously still dealing with it but I’m so happy to hear you say that you are still dealing with it cause I feel like it’s something that will never not make you or think about and you can’t ignore. Just so happy that you feel like you can share this stuff with us Soph ❤

Thank you for sharing about your grief, it makes me feel less alone ❤ I lost my twin brother to brain cancer when I was 7 (now 24) and the pain of losing a parent or sibling is next level. I send all my love to you ❤❤❤

I lost my mom when I was 18 and you opening up about your experience makes me feel less alone, thank you. sending you so much love always, she'd be SO proud of the person you are.

My mom passed over 3 years ago when I was 17, and I recently bought my first "house" (it's a mobile home trailer) I'm definitely going to use that homework because the older I get the more I find that there are spaces that aren't healed yet. I hope to grow up and be like you one day.

Awesome 😊😊

thank you so much for sharing about this 💙 I’m behind on your vlogs but I just wanted to say how much I think every time I see you that you honor your mom in being happy and in the moment and grateful for everything you have - You deserve the world
