No Luck Given

Logo + Branding, AllNicole MacdonaldJanuary 1, 2016
SHOWCASE // A new athlete-led international movement has just launched, aiming to inspire and drive change across the world of sport - and I had the absolute please to be a part of it and work with @globalathletehq on their branding 😋🙌🏻
.
.
.
The brief was a dream to work with; modern, edgy, positive, progressive, inspirational, urban. A simple design with a strong logo type that can be used alone or with the super funky cutout initials. The colours pop and bring energy to the brand without being too traditional or garish
.
.
.
I think what really brings with brand home for me is that passion and drive behind this movement and the people propelling it forward. Ben and the team had done their research, were thoughtful about the design direction and I just have asked for a better project to work on 😋 Check out the website portfolio of the full look and feel and swipe across to see the final colours and designs ❤️
MONDAY // Well, what a weekend 😂 This is me dying on the couch after cleaning the house top to bottom, getting dirty in the garden, walking the dog, catching up with family and spending a few hours at the shops spending my birthday vouchers. I was planning on walking up a mountain but I think this was just as good a exercise 😅 well kinda. I also managed to binge watch the entire season of @umbrellaacad on @netflixanz while doing my chores (watch it, it’s sooooo good)
.
.
.
In my brief down time I also made a list of the final edits I want to make to my Website Content Prompt workbook because it’s been weighing on my mind - and I think I’ll be able to release the first version (interactive PDF) this week! So stay tuned for that 😋
.
.
.
Super excited to just have a positive and happy week, aim to be focused and kind and not let any silly issues bring me down 🙌🏻 who’s with me?!
.
.
.
Ps. Love this edit? Check out the @thejanabishop blush presets - just amazing 😍
CAN I BE HONEST WITH YOU // I had a bit of a mare for my Friday morning, just normal business stuff that happens (I found I have a strong trigger towards charging what you are worth 😅) but this isn’t what this post is about.
.
.
.
I wanted to say much I am truly grateful to be a part of the wonderful Facebook group and community that is @getbacktodesign, founded by @heykristarae and @korymae ❤️
.
.
.
There was a time that I couldn’t see the importance of being part of a Facebook group (back before I went full time freelancing) and thought I don’t need anyone, I’ve got my business life sorted 😅 Believe me, once you go out on your own and remove yourself from having co-workers around you every day, it can not only be lonely and isolating, but issues can seem a lot bigger when you can’t express them to another living soul (okay yes I can totally call up a friend or peer and ask for advice), but being part of a proper design community of likeminded people who have a wealth of experience and knowledge? It’s priceless.
.
.
.
The advice you can get from people going through the same highs and lows, and the advice that you can also give back to those who are struggling (or the virtual high fives if they are winning! 🙌🏻) is again, priceless. .
.
.
I can wholeheartedly recommend joining one or multiple Facebook groups (psst @getbacktodesign, @annadowergrams Designer Boss Ladies and @girlsinbusiness_official are my favs) and invest time into giving advice and also using it as a tool to connect and get advice when you most need it, from amazing people all over the world ❤️ Your business (and mental state) will thank you for it.
.
.
.
Rant done for the day, happy Friday all! 🙈
FLOWERS BECAUSE // Happy Valentine’s Day lovers 💕 It’s a day that sparks a bit of controversy and division between people, should you celebrate it, is it over commercialised, why is there so much pressure to share love on one day of the year, should we practice it year round?
.
.
.
Yes to all those things and no at the same time and you know what, I couldn’t care less 😂 what people do or don’t do isn’t my concern at all. We don’t do anything special, it’s just another day. I do adore all things pink and flowery and I love pretty Valentines packaging or when shops put effort into their advertising (I’m a designer, sue me but I love that romantic script font) so I myself just get starry eyes, but do I beg my partner to take me to dinner or hope for a card? Na 🤣 But if you do go all out on Valentine’s Day, go you! Be extra, have fun, haters will say it’s not a holiday but who cares 💁🏼‍♀️
.
.
.
I bought myself some protein powder for #gains and I may even get some flowers because YOLO and they are on special for some reason 😜🌹
.
.
.
So have a lovely day lovers (or not) and don’t feel like you do or do not need to get hung up on it 😘
.
.
.
P.s my dog is my Valentine because she has no choice in the matter, going to go on a long romantic walk with her soon
LET’S STAY IN BED // Whew anyone else feeling like the year is already whizzing by, how are we in February already?! This month has gotten off to a surpercharged start and I am fizzing with some of the coolest projects I have gotten to work on 😋
.
.
.
Which means as much as I think I have gotten my head around balancing life and work, safe to say there have been a few late nights recently getting some work in 😅
.
.
.
My word or theme for this year is BOLD - being bold with my choices and chasing my dreams, but there’s a fine line between being bold and saying yes to every opportunity, and burning out in the process 🙈
.
.
.
I’m hoping it’s still early days and this has just been a particularly busy start to the year, but does anyone else struggle to take a break at times, and how do you keep in peak physical and mental condition when you are the most busy you’ve ever been? Do you have any products or apps you swear by that help you? Let me know in the comments below! ❤️
OH BABY // Just spent the loveliest afternoon at @tarshnz ‘s #babyshower, my first one! 😋👶🏻🍼👣 .
.
.
It’s such an amazing life stage to be in, friends getting married, having babies, buying or building their first homes, building their empires or travelling to faraway destinations, it’s so amazing to be a part of and see them just living their best lives 😍❤️
.
.
.
Happiest of Sunday’s to everyone out there, feeling all the love vibes today 💕💕💕
