Happy Friday! Welcome to the very first edition of Love On This, love beauty thrive’s new weekly blog series. Earlier this week, we talked about our new vision for the blog and the great changes you’ll see coming up this year. Love On This is the second new series being introduced as part of love beauty thrive’s vision for 2022 (yesterday we saw the first, Between the Covers, a monthly book feature).
I’m so excited for Love On This to help you kick off your weekend in the best way, with a list of happy favourites from this past week. Before we get to it, here’s a bit more on what Love On This is all about and what you can expect in each week’s post . . .

What’s Love On This?
Love On This is a weekly series of favourites, reading, links and other interesting little internet finds for you to love on through the weekend! I’ll be compiling a list of all my online favourites throughout the week (articles, blogs, pop culture, news, great buys, sales and more), anything I loved that week across internetland and the blogosphere that I can’t wait to share with you.
I’m so excited for this series, a quick and pretty weekly post that’s totally brand new to love beauty thrive. You’ll find Love On This on the blog every Friday.
