So often, when people chat with me about my blog, I get asked a lot of the same questions. I decided to post some of the more frequent ones today:
1. Do you wear heels every day?
Surprisingly, this is the most common question people ask me. The short answer is no. While I love wearing heels and tend to wear them to work 3-5 days per week, I am definitely a fan of flat shoes. I actually own many more pairs of flats and sandals than I do heels. On the weekends, you can find me in boots in the colder months and sandals in the summer. I actually think sandals are my favorite type of footwear but I just can't pull them off in these cold months.
2. Who takes your pictures?
This is a question that also comes up almost every time someone asks about my blog. Many people used to think that Brad took my photos, but I think we only tried that once or twice-- I would end up getting mad or I wouldn't like the angles, I don't know, it just never worked out. I actually take 100% of my own photos. I used to be kind of embarassed about this but it has actually taught me a lot about photography (and how to use a DSLR and Photoshop) but I think that it also has taught me humility. It's kind of crazy to introduce yourself to someone and then somehow mention later in the conversation that you take photos of yourself every day... yeah, that doesn't sound self-absorbed. Luckily, I have gotten over that and really have embraced the art that is self photography. And let me tell you, it is not nearly as easy as it looks.
3. Do you shop more because you have a fashion/ style blog?
I think the reason that I shop more these days is because I READ more fashion and style blogs. I routinely find myself falling in love with things that other bloggers have written about and make it my mission to acquire some of these products. A few things that I discovered on blogs:
this coat,
this scarf and this
top.
4. Do you dress up more because you have a blog?
Honestly, no. I am the type of girl who is most comfortable in a pair of skinny jeans and a sweatshirt (like the photos above) but also feels really girly and pretty in fancy dresses and skirts. Most often, on the weekends, you can find me in very casual attire but I really enjoy dressing up for work Monday- Friday. Sure, there are days that I really want to throw on a pair of jeans for work, but that typically ends up inspiring some creative ideas in hopes of looking work appropriate, yet still very comfortable.
5. Can I be on your blog?
This is, by far, one of my favorite questions that people ask and it's pretty crazy how often people say this to me. Of course! I am always happy to host guest bloggers on here and would love to see what creative ideas you come up with. If you have something in mind,
email me! I love hearing from you.
