I’ve specifically stated my weekend morning routine as my rushed and somewhat chaotic weekday morning routine isn’t worth mentioning really. Sometimes it’s all a bit of a blur to be honest with you. More so if I’ve had a later night than usual! The weekend is my time. I don’t really have anything to get up and rush about for. I take advantage of the opportunity to get my days off to the right start, in my own time.
When I first wake up I tend to grab my phone, it’s a bit like my morning newspaper equivalent really. I browse through my social media and catch up and the last nights goings on, check my emails etc.
Although my weekends are my time I do still like to be as productive as I can and make the most of being off work. One of the best ways I’ve found to encourage productivity is to get a wash before I even head downstairs. I’m a bath gal so I’ll usually put the bath on and sort my clothes for the day while it runs.
I don’t make it too deep where I’d be inclined to lie about for a while like on an evening. Now thats me washed and I’ve cleansed my face, sometimes I’ll exfoliate as I have more time and I can often forget during the week. Tut tut, I know. I then follow on with my morning skincare routine which I’ve linked below if you want to take a look.
Depending on the days plans I’ll either stick my cosy, lounge type clothes on or get dressed ready for heading out. Because I’m mother to a fur baby the first thing I have to do on any given morning is let him out. The next and most important thing I do is stick the kettle on! You can’t beat the first cuppa of the day! There’s nothing quite like the smell of coffee in the morning!
Thanks to the lovely team at Rombouts Coffee I’m well stocked!! I do love coffee but I have to confess I never drink the coffee in jars. However, I do love a trip to Costa for a latte or flat white. The only coffee I tend to make at home is the coffee that goes inside of the cafeteria to brew before pouring.
Rombouts have introduced me to a whole new world of coffee at home with their one cup filter coffees* and roast*, ground coffee* made using a cafetière*. They offer a whole host of flavours and strengths to try, I tend to air on the lighter side when it comes to my coffee so I preferred the original one cup filters the most. You take a filter and place it over your cup, pour and wait while it slowly filters the perfect cup. It tastes exactly like a cafe bought coffee in my opinion. It’s perfectly paired with their delicious café biscuits*.
Now that I’ve sunk my first coffee of the day, the next part depends on what my day will consist of. One option (the healthier option) would see my grab my gym bag and head off to put in a morning session in. I like to try to get there at least one of my weekend mornings. Option two would be to get some breakfast on the go, it’s my favourite meal of the day and having the luxury of time on my side over a weekend I can make something far more appealing than a bowl of cereal. Poached eggs with spinach and tomatoes, or pancakes are both favourites of mine to start the day off right.
From there I love to have the opportunity to get some blog work done at my leisure. You’ll often find me taking photos (you can’t beat the morning daylight), frantically tapping away at my keyboard as I pour all of my thoughts into my posts, or enjoying my second brew of the day while reading other blogs and leaving comments.
So that’s how my typical weekend mornings begin, how do yours look?
I’ve also shared my morning skincare and evening skincare routines if you enjoyed this post and would like to take a look.

Sounds like you have a great routine, I have such stressful mornings because of the kids and wish I had more time to ease into the day! x
Sounds like the perfect weekend routine! Very chilled x

My weekend morning routine, well every morning actually, starts with a cup of chai tea!
I usually start the day looking at my phone but I’ve started reading in the morning and it definitely helps x

I love waking up and making myself a fresh coffee, got a new machine for my birthday this year and I’m addicted!
It sounds like a lovely chilled routine – mine always starts with a brew 😀
i hate stressful mornings. I’ve been trying recently to wake up earlier, more gently and do half an hour of house work or blog work as my evenings and weekends become super crazy other wise. I love a rombouts coffee too, i worked with them a few months back and I’m already out of stock!
I am all for a weekend pamper! Love your Jo Malone picks x
Sounds like you have your routine sorted! I’m all over the place right now S I’ve just moved house!
I love knowing about other people’s ruitines 🙂 I always check my phone as soon as I wake x
Sounds like an awesome routine babe, super relaxing! 🌸✨
With love, Alisha Valerie x | AlishaValerie.com
I have to admit my mornings are pretty lazy on a weekend!
I have a similar weekend morning routine – the first thing I always do is check my phone. I would love to try Jo Malone, I’ve heard great things!

Honestly, my weekend mornings don’t look much different from my weekday mornings! I work from home and tend to work throughout the weekend as well because my boyfriend usually works weekends. The only difference is I usually get to spend a bit more time with my Mum during the weekend, which is nice. But I always start my day with breakfast and some Yoga 🙂 xxx
sounds like a lovely weekend routine! im more of a tea fan than a coffee fan however 🙂
I love a lazy weekend morning – helped along with tea & toast in bed!

I am now a morning person at all, morning are always stressful and hard for me.
Sounds like such a good morning routine. Yum! Pancakes for breakfast are delicious! I also have to let my cats out first thing every morning – they make a very effective alarm clock! 😄 Great post and gorgeous photos xx

This is such a relaxing routine! My routine seemed to go out of the window a while back but this post definitely motivated me to start a new one, and actually keep at it this time! Love the Jo Malone pics too!

I love knowing how others spend their weekends. My weekend mornings are busy with kids’ clubs! Thanks for sharing .
Sounds like my idea of heaven! Sadly with kids my mornings are slightly more “full on” shall we say, however I too grab my phone first thing every morning to catch up on what I have missed in the few hours I’ve been sleeping!

sounds perfect for the mornings. Pancakes are my favourite thing for breakfast but only have them when I go out for breakfast/brunch. Lovely post
Such a great routine! I don’t know if I really have a regular routine, I think
I should get into one now xx

What an interesting post! I love hearing about what other people get up to at the weekends and it sounds like you have a pretty good routine. My weekends start the same time as my weekdays – at 5am when my toddler wakes me up!I also like to try and squeeze in a bit of blog work at the weekend and I’m totally on board with pancakes for breakfast! 🙂
Sounds like a great routine! My mornings always start with coffee! I’m basically useless without my first cup haha!
Ahhh I love your blog layout, your photography is fab and the aesthetic of the site is so nice! It’s great to come across another Northerner 😀 x

This sounds a lot like my weekend morning routine! And I usually stay in my lounge clothes all day haha!
I love this blog post, it’s so interesting seeing what other people morning routine are like. My weekend routine is normally very similar to my weekday one but it just done a bit slower with a lie in included. I love the sound of a bath in the morning, seems like the best way to wake up.

You always need a chilled routine at the weekend 😉 Weekends are for self care 😉

Thought I was the only one who grabs the phone first thing in the morning. Glad to know I’m not alone.

My whole routine is around coffee in the morning but I haven’t heard of this brand! I’ll have to have a nose xx
Gah that sounds so lovely and relaxing! Definitely one for the weekend. I’m always too lazy and don’t move for hours on end haha! <3

I love the sound of your morning routine! I’m pretty much the same as you with having a chilled weekend morning routine x
Yes! Weekends are for relaxing and taking your time to do things. I need to venture out of my illy coffee snobbery and try more brands! Is it strong or is it quite creamy in taste? x
I love coffee and a bit of Jo Malone in the mornings, that is the best start to any day 🙂

Sounds like you have a very relaxed morning routine and I love your little bath stand thing (I don’t know what they are called but everyone has one!)

I’d love to develop a good weekend morning routine. I just end up catching up on sleep! haha. This sounds so much more productive.

My morning routine consists of one word: coffee!
My weekends used to be similar until Rosie came along! The coffee looks fab, my boyfriend is obsessed with coffee but I’m more of a tea drinker so I’m going to tell him about this brand! Xx
Nice morning routine! My routine is non-existent at the moment, apart from checking my phone when I wake lol
Sounds like a very relaxed morning! My mornings mainly consist of a lot of coffee haha x
I love morning/evening routine posts. They’re the perfect thing if you’re having a lazy day and want something relaxing to read. Thank you so much for sharing 🙂
I wish, I actually had a proper routine on weekends, cause I just try to sleep as long as possible, don’t eat properly and regularly, which is not good for my body, and then hang around my bed a lot. Actually, wayyy too much. I catch up on TV shows, hopefully get some blogging done snd just chill. Although on Sunday’s, I get frustrated for not having done enough, so I try and then always end up going to bed too late. And I applaud you for going to the gym. 😀

Quite similar to my morning routine. After dealing with all my furs baby and attend my bed I take a nice shower (I have no bathtub and I miss having one) I drink a cup of coffee while I read the news later on I spend half of my days either making plan for a next project or paint something.
Lovely post!
