I love that piece in your latest outfit post. Where did you get it?
I link all pieces I wear underneath the outfit pictures.
What do you do for a living?
By day, I am a government contractor. By night, I blog.
I just started a blog. Do you have any tips?
Most simply, do it for you. It’s easy to get caught up in the content that other bloggers are publishing & what the latest trends are. But if you can’t stand tartan, don’t focus an entire post around it. Stay true to yourself, your style, & your voice. You will be so much more pleased with your content & your readers will keep coming back because you are staying true to your own voice. After making the commitment, & before going live, think about how many times a week you will post & stick to that plan. Think about your platform, design, & overall feel of your blog. What message are you trying to get across? Why do you want people to visit your site? Both important questions to ask yourself before you pour your heart & soul into your blog.
