Surprise!! I’m so excited to tell you that all of my sight loss journey, my heart and soul as well as my career bits, so far have been poured from my brain onto paper for you all to read. Things that I have never spoken about online and that’s better written down. Firsthand accounts from my husband, sister, mum and dad on how they have dealt with my sight loss. How I felt becoming a global ambassador for one of the biggest haircare brands and much much more. This is Blind Not Broken: My Guide to Turning Loss and Grief into Happiness. My why and the reason I get up every morning is to share my story in the hope that it helps at least one person going through grief, makes one person smile if they’re having a bad day or have just broken up with their partner, lost a loved one, became disabled and much more. The thing about grief is that we all feel it and I really do hope this book helps anyone grieving. No pressure but if you want to pre-order the link is in my bio and I’ll be giving you updates when it’s finally out next year in March. I really do hope you like this crazy idea that we had… A life-size version of my book cover and me bursting through, it is such a me and Ollie video. We had so much fun. Thank you so so much in advance for supporting me in everything I do on here. You guys mean the world to me and if you do pre-order I hope my ramblings help you XXX

Look what I made my gorgeous bridesmaids do! 😂 They will all do anything for me ❤️ don’t they look stunning? ❤️ I went for this greeny colour as it’s so unusual and it’s perfect for Kew! And let me tell you a quick story 😂 Ollie suddenly announces a week and half before the wedding that he doesn’t really think the ties match so I went into panic mode and rang @Shaaba. 🍑☀️ who rang so many tie tailors I can’t even count now. She’s such a star! Because we had a spare dress and thought that might be an easy option if it could be made on time but who knew that most tie tailors go on holiday the last week in August so before we took a spare bridesmaid dress to a tailor me and mum thought we’d pop into Moss Bros and hallelujah our prayers were answered! We found ties. This is some advice from one bride to another: sort out ties and dresses at the same time 😂
Thank you @asos for gifting these beautiful dresses and if anyone’s interested I bought my girls @TWC pyjamas.

So this is the moment that I blindfolded all my guests, and I walked down the aisle on my #wedding day… Myself and Ollie thought it would be a really good idea to blindfold him as well, as when I got to the end, and my dad passed my hand to Ollie he was able to feel my wedding dress in the exact way that I felt it when I first had it on. This was such an important experience for us both even though Ollie isn’t blind, but we thought it was really important for him and all of my guests to experience what it’s like for me in the most important moment of our life so far. As you can see me, Ollie and my dad are really struggling to hold it together. It was such an emotional moment and one that I will remember for the rest of my life. I am so lucky that I have a husband that accepts me for exactly who I am my disability and everything. The whole me. I walked down the aisle to arrival of the birds by @The Cinematic Orchestra , as this is the song at the end of one of my favourite films, the Theory of Everything. Stephen Hawking has been a massive role model in my life and I always cry at the end of that movie at his final monologue. I really believe in the philosophy that we are all just small beings and atoms on this massive planet and Stephen taught me that you can love and hate your disability equally, and that’s a truly beautiful thing. It’s a sense of self that I’ve had to work on and I felt truly independent when walking down the aisle with my dad to this song. This is quite an emotional and raw moment to share with you guys, but I thought it was so important as it’s not a typical way that a bride walks down the aisle but it was my way. Just remember you are so special and you don’t have to follow traditions if you don’t want to. Our wedding day is about you and the person that you love and every moment needs to feel right for you.
Thank you to the amazing harpist @Amie True Music (gifted) for playing the main melody along with the 3D audio speakers from Delta Live that we had up the aisle so we could have immersive sound. Ollie made an arrangement so I could hear where I was. Every step I took the music evolved and so did the flowers! A truly blind experience!

I have tried many things over the years tiny mascaras, clear mascaras, brow gel as a mascara etc And all of these work in different ways. However, this is my new technique that has allowed me to apply full size mascaras as a blind girl a lot easier. Thank you Tweezerman (#gifted ) for sending me this its been a game changer. Just see the difference it makes on both sides of my face! So so cool. Would you need to use something like this and do you think it would make it easier for you?

She holds the lash guard up to her eye and applies mascara to her left eye. She shows the camera the difference between each side. Lucy’s left eyelashes are noticeably thicker and more lifted.
