In this informal daily vlog, Tilly Lockey chronicles a spontaneous day that began with plans to watch the sunrise with her sister but shifted due to foggy weather. She showcases her bionic arms, switches between pink and blue prosthetic hands, and reflects on the unique experience of living without natural hands. The vlog marks a major milestone as Tilly celebrates reaching 100,000 Instagram followers, receiving a giant cookie, balloons, and a cake from friends, and expressing gratitude to her supporters. She documents a creative makeup tutorial she sourced from Pinterest for a TikTok, purchases a new camera to improve her YouTube production quality, and shares the excitement of buying the camera despite it being a financial stretch. The day continues with a trip to Hobbycraft for balloons, a stop at McDonald's, and a light‑hearted outfit check. Throughout, Tilly narrates her content‑creation workflow—filming, editing, and uploading—while maintaining a playful, upbeat tone. She ends the video by thanking viewers, encouraging likes, comments, and subscriptions, and promising future content.

Here's your reminder.
You got this, boo. Today is going to be a great day.
You can't see a thing. Good morning.
I can't wait till we can open Advent calendars.
Alexa.
How many days till Christmas? Christmas is in 26 days. Santa has a little message for you.
Ho ho ho, I can't wait for Christmas.
Try saying Alexa, play the mince pie song. Not right now. So the plan was to meet up with my older sister. We were going to go out for a walk to our favorite location where we're going to watch the sunrise, and I'm pretty proud of how far I've come because usually I'm like asleep till like 10 maybe, but I'm still up to go see sunrise. Depends if my sister is awake.
She best be awake.
Okay, so slight change of plan. The weather is absolutely disgusting. It's literally so foggy, like you can't even see the sky. So sunrise would be good in that. And my sister did wake up. We don't actually hate each other, um, it's just the way we text. It's like humor that's not really funny, but anyway, that's just how we text. Like, yeah, but I'll take you through the rest of my day. I'm up and ready and it's now 8 AM, so So yeah, it should be a very productive day since I'm already up, and that's the hardest step, am I right, folks?
So let's go!
The good thing about having no hands is that I can't feel how absolutely golden hot this would be right now. To answer the question, do cats like bionic arms? What do you think, Reese? He likes to eat them. He loves them.
Let's try not to burn this one.
My next video is going live in exactly 12 minutes, so if you haven't seen this video yet, it will have been last week's video if you're watching this one. It's currently Sunday when I'm filming this, so So this is going up in 12 minutes, and if you haven't seen it, go check it out. We had fun making it. So obviously everyone has seen me using the pink arms today. However, I think that I want to wear the blue ones, so I've left the house and I'm gonna go get my blue ones out of the car.
Wait for them to leave. Yep.
Ah, look at that festive spirit.
Love that for me.
Fit check. This is not my coat, hence why it's really, really large.
Thorn bush.
Literally a handbag, a bag full of hands and hair bands. Yeah, not everyone can say that. Also, yes, I have a feet of 500. No, I'm not sad about it. I think they're quite cute. But somebody said to me once on Instagram stories, because I've put on like me in the car, and then they were like, oh, you've got a feet of 500. I was like Yeah, and what about it? I quite like my Fiat, so if you're a car enthusiast and disagree with our life choices, then I don't really care. I love my Fiat. Now I'm completely lost. These are freezing. Absolutely freezing, having stayed in the car overnight.
Cold.
Anyway, let's go. Okay, so it is currently the time 12:12, um, 12 minutes past 12 PM, and I've just been searching on Pinterest because I need to film a TikTok, like makeup kind of thing. And I just feel like I'm just, I'm just kind of feeling really creative. So I've been looking on Pinterest and I found this makeup look which I really like. Definitely something that's out of my comfort zone that I haven't done before. So I think I'm going to try and recreate this for TikTok. I will show you it and like put it in here if it turns out good and I actually like it, um, but if I don't, then you'll never see it. I was just about to do my makeup, but as you know, but there was a knock at the door and I went and it was my cousin and his fiancée with this massive like giant cookie which says congrats on 100K, Tilly. I did hit 100K on Instagram like how many days ago? Like 3 days ago or something. And yeah, it's so surreal to me. Like, I still can't even believe that. I was watching my previous videos because I do that quite a lot, and just to see like improvement and everything, I kind of cringe, not gonna lie. But I found a video where I was talking about, oh my goodness, I hit 50k! And I was like getting really excited about it, as I should. And I just kept saying, like, I don't think people understand. Like, it's just sinking in me, like 50,000 people. That's a lot of people. And I think now there's double that. It's absolutely insane to me. So thank you so much, Brandon and Danny, if you're watching this. I love you. And I'm gonna enjoy eating this later on with my cake. I've got a kind of collection of fatty foods going on, which I'm gonna be celebrating with later on. So thank you so much. Hi everyone, I'm back again. Just a little update, I have just been online and I bought a camera. I don't know if anyone knows, but up until this point I've just been using my phone. Like right now I'm recording on my phone. Like a phone's good and you don't need a camera, but I feel like I want to invest. It did break the bank, but hey, it's an investment. Let's just look at it like that. My quality is gonna be upping its game, so I'm very excited about that. Hopefully I can understand how to use it because I've never really used a camera before, not even gonna lie. So hopefully it'll all go great and it'll just make my YouTube channel better and my videos better. That's the main goal. As I mentioned earlier, I did hit 100K like the other day, and we ordered balloons for 100K, but they only went and cancelled my order, didn't they? I'm not really sure what happened, to be honest. Something went wrong and then they couldn't get it in time, but they've got it now. Now I'm at like 102K so it's a little bit late, but oh well, we're gonna celebrate nonetheless. So I'm gonna go to Hobbycraft and pick up the balloons now. I will be one of those typical influencers with their 100K balloons because you need to take that picture, you know. Thank you guys so much for 100K. Again, I cannot say enough, like, I actually can't. I can't. I really struggle to put it into words. I don't even look at it as followers, if you know what I mean. Like, to me, it's like supporters. That's what I like to refer to you all to because I do a lot like of advocacy and everything as well as like modeling, but even that's like against stereotypes and everything. So yeah, to me it's just like I have a whole lot of supporters and I appreciate every single one of you. So thank you so, so, so much. So yeah, that's what I'm gonna do now and I'm gonna take you along with me. My phone might die, but quick outfit check. Do I kind of look like a prison convict? Do I kind of look like we're about to rob a bank? Yes, Absolutely, but hey, it's a look.
Hey, this angle is sick. Let's go.
I forgot my mask, so my mom's went in to get the balloons. They've been delivered, they've got our name on it, she's got an email to prove it, so she's gonna get them and bring them out for me. I'm not usually as forgetful, I promise. Okay, we've got the balloons now, which I'm so excited about. I was rambling on about it earlier, but yeah, it means a lot to me, so I'm glad that we've got the balloons. Follow me on Instagram to see the typical 100K post. But where are we going now, Mom? Uh, McDonald's. McDonald's. Best best day ever if you ask me.
Let's go!
Hey, my phone's still recording down there.
I'm surprised it's not dead.
Hi everyone, it's me again and we are back where we started. I hope all you guys liked the makeup I filmed. I loved it. For one, I didn't put any, um, what you call it, like setting spray or like powder or anything like that on, so it's kind of like awful off now, but I liked it while it lasted. It made it to Instagram, so there you go. But I hope you all liked it. You can check out my Instagram and my TikTok for more like that. I've been really into like makeup and like creative stuff recently, more than usual. Um, after I filmed the makeup, I posted it, and then I kind of just went off and edited the YouTube video that you're currently watching now. So like up to this point, I edited it— and that's really hard to say— edited it, um, because I needed to film an outro. So I'm sorry I didn't really film too much of the nighttime. I haven't really been up to too much. I'm yet to eat my cake, guys. I'm like, it's not like I don't want to eat it, I'm saving it because I want to like loaf in it. Is that the word? Bask in it? It's loaf, like synonym for that, I'm not really sure. You know what I mean? I want to be like in the cake. I don't want to eat it because I'm like, it's an achievement. But yeah, I'm gonna eat it because I like cake. Anyway, I really hope you all enjoyed this video even though it was not a plan. We were supposed to be going to watch sunrise. It would have been a completely different aesthetic of this whole video. The vibe would have been completely different, but I'm really happy with how it turned out so far, and I had a really great day. But I hope you enjoyed this video. Make sure to like, comment, and subscribe if you did, and I hope to see you all next time.
