Happy Hump Day (or should
I say pre-Turkey Day!)! I’m beyond ready
for a little break, some family time, and way too much food tomorrow followed
by a little online shopping before hitting up the Black Friday sales. Are you guys ready for tomorrow? I feel like everyone has been running so fast
recently and I hope you can take a little time to relax tomorrow and I hope
everyone has a great Thanksgiving tomorrow!
Be sure to check back on Friday and I will have my picks from all of the
sales up.
I’ve enjoyed reading
everyone’s Tour through Blogland posts and was very flattered and excited when the
always chic Ivette from Girl in a Hot City reached out to me about
participating. I don’t know how I
discovered her blog, but I’m so happy I did!
She has amazing style and you should definitely check out her blog. Discovering this amazing community of other
bloggers has been one of my favorite parts of this journey, so I’m also excited
to nominate two fellow Atlanta bloggers who I’ve enjoyed getting to know
through blogging and hope you enjoy getting to know them as well!
1) What am I working
on?
Right now, I’m trying
to figure out how I can expand my current posting schedule to 5 days a week through
the creation of a weekly series as well as playing with several ideas for a
blog re-design. For the past year or so,
this has been a hobby, but I’m ready to make my little internet space more
professional.
2) How does my work
differ from others in its genre?
I’m still trying to
figure out this out as there are a ton of other fashion bloggers out
there. I feel as though I discover
another great blog every day or week.
However, the internet is big enough for all of us to have our little
piece without stepping on each other.
3) Why do I
write/create what I do?
I’ve always loved
fashion and clothes, and toyed with the idea of starting a blog for a
while. I was always the one who my
friends would ask for advice or before they bought an item. On the blog, I want to share my love of looking creating great
outfits without spending a ton through finding great deals and remixing pieces
in your wardrobe. I may splurge on my
shoes, but everyone has a weakness, right?
I realized I need a
creative outlet in my last job as a consultant where I was traveling every week
and living out of a suitcase (picking just one pair of shoes for the week was
always so tough!). However, it was only
after I quit that job last year and too some time last year to figure out what
I wanted that I started my blog and I love seeing how it continues to evolve.
4) How does my
writing/creating process work?
To be honest, this is something I’m working on. I’m trying to get better at planning out my
posts so I’m not up late the night before (like tonight) writing my posts. I try to find creative inspiration in
everything from what my co-workers are wearing (I have some amazingly stylish
co-workers!) to magazines to blogs to Pinterest. People watching is one of my favorite
pastimes. The writing process is a
totally different story and a little bit of a work in progress as some nights
the words flow and then others there’s nothing.
If you guys have any tips on writing inspiration, I’d love to hear them!
Now to introduce you to a few of my favorite bloggers!
