Hi guys!
So things have been pretty rocky for me the past year (2016) as I have discussed in one of my last blog posts of 2016 but I have still been having trouble getting into the swing of things. I haven’t been able to give my full focus to my blog so I needed a brief step back. Secondly, I’ve been oddly uninspired. I feel like I hit a blogging rut. The blogging world has changed so much.
You know I’ve been considering doing YouTube videos for some years now but recently I’ve gotten more interested. That’s taken some of my interest from my blog. I’m ready to make YouTube an extension of my blog. I love doing reviews but I’d like to be able to build and share with a wider audience for my reviews.
Next, in my honest opinion blogging (not bloggers) has become so unauthentic in so many ways. Actually I hear Youtubers saying the same, that YouTube is no longer fun. For me, it just seems that blogging and Instagram has become something other than fun and genuine. Instagram is no longer as a matter of fact or natural moments type pics. Pictures are staged and over dramatized to draw in jaded consumers and “viewers”. Extra is needed to be noticed. I miss the the fun and impromptu posts. Well, I can’t complain too much because I’ve been guilty of staging photos for reviews. It’s pretty much business. Honestly, I hate staging tho. {Insert eyeroll} But how do I get back to that fun I first had?
Well, I’m working on a few things. I won’t say right now but I am. I’m excited to do some blogger collaborations this year. Just plain ol fun! In the meantime, I’m going to continue to review and do outfit posts. I love thrifting so I’ll be going back to more thrifting and posting those looks on my blog. So keep a lookout for those posts! Shall I do a thrifting series? Hmmm, let me know! Thank you guys again for sticking around!
I love this outfit!!! very simple but classic and very stylish.
Thank you very much and thanks so much for reading!
