Meet the Ladies: {March}

Looking for some great new blogs to discover?

Well boy howdy, do I have to introduce you to some very special blog ladies! These gal pals have rocking blogs full of great photos, fun stories, and posts that will real you in.. trust me.

You definitely need to take a second and go say hello!
Never underestimate how you can boost someone's day by a sweet comment.
So, let me introduce you to some of blog land's finest! Just for giggles, I asked them to share some of their deepest, darkest guilty pleasures...

Enjoy!



Guilty Pleasures?
My guilty pleasures of course my boyfriend. Haha. Haha but really. We are long distance so when ever we see each other there's a lot of kisses, hugs, cuddles. Then I love me some movies. I love all types my movies take up 3 drawers in my college room. I also love me ice cream.




Guilty Pleasures?
I'm addicted to TV - again! After months of being too busy to watch TV, I'm enjoying lots of time off work where I watch reality TV on E!, entire seasons of Glee, and the entire series (so far) of Bunheads. I can't get enough of the quick wit and the ridiculous lives that people live.





Guilty Pleasures?
Right now my guilty pleasure is watching episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show on Hulu.
I used to watch it as a kid and now I love seeing the styles of fashion and comedy again. It's even more fun 
since I live in Minnesota where the show was filmed. I love escaping to her life for an hour each night. 





Guilty Pleasures?
Where do I start? Well, honestly, they all have men's names... Edward Cullen, Ben & Jerry, Chuck Bass... perhaps a little Jack Daniels at times. :) Non guilty pleasures? Spoiling my little poodle baby with all my heart!





Guilty Pleasures?
I would have to say a bag of hot cheetos, anything on Bravo (especially Vanderpump Rules as of late), and really hot bubble baths would have to be on that list. And Starbucks. That's a guilty pleasure I indulge myself in daily.






Guilty Pleasures?
TV show The Vampire Diaries. It's so ridiculous - but I soak up every second of it. Oooo steamy vampire men! And I'm slightly addicted to the game Tiny Tower on my iPad. 




Guilty Pleasures?
Edy's slow churned butter pecan ice cream, all the Real Housewives Franchises, Beyond the Rack, room service.


I bet you can relate to some of these guilty pleasures. I mean, I absolutely cannot - in any way, shape or form - relate to their love of trashy reality TV, Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia FroYo, or completely spoiling my dog.

Does anyone believe me?

Okay.. I'm the world's worse liar. This blonde has some crazy vices! :)

Thanks for stopping  by, lovies!
Go show these girls some blog love, mmkay?

Meet the Girls: November

Have you been in a rut of the same old blogs lately? Looking for something fresh? New? Something that will get your creative side some inspiration?

I've got just the blogs/shops for you!

I personally follow each and every one of these girls, and would love to introduce you to some of my favorites. Many of you may already be following some of these gal pals... because let's face it, they are just that good.


{ Meet the Girls }





Blog Highlight?

I want to start a craft group with Jen, because she is always up to a fun new project! I love seeing her Pinterest inspiration posts because they get my wheels a'rolling! I especially loved her holiday glitter art tutorial yesterday... I may have to visit Hobby Lobby on my way home to get started on this fabulous project!



Katie @ aKonthego


Blog highlight?

This girl is as down to earth as you can get! She blogs about everyday life, which I can totally relate to. New recipes, inspiration, decorating, new experiences, and so much more. Dying to try her pizza recipe that she posted earlier this week! YUM!







Blog highlight?

A must read is Rachel's Trim Down Diaries. Great healthy recipes, exercise motivation, tips and tricks! I look forward to a new post CONSTANTLY! She also has a fabulous social life and an upcoming NYC trip that I'm glued to. Hey, I can live vicariously through her, can't I?





Blog Highlight?

Variety is the spice of life, and Nikki has it down to an art. From great shopping tips to weekend recaps, I love the new topics she enjoys writing about (I can't get enough wedding tips)! Not to mention, she loves puppies like I do, so I super enjoyed her Dog Mom Monday post - I took lots of notes! :)





Blog Highlight?

This lady is incredible. Crafty, foodie, and adventurous! Did I mention her pups are too cute? Her blog has a lovely variety and I'm constantly book marking projects and recipe inspiration for later! Example? I am dying to make her Citrus and Herb Chicken for a fancy dinner party!



Lindsay @ Sandy Toes & Salty Kisses


Blog Highlight?

Well, she's my little sister, so I have to love her right? Jk, Sissy is fabulous! She's always had a knack for styling, so I love her fashion posts so much, especially this Winter Fashion Fad post! She even did a precious post on her homemade Halloween costume... a must see!






Blog Highlight?

She does an amazing job of day dreaming. Whether it's posts about Admiring the Moon or recalling memories of her kids, I love reading! Her Wordless Wednesday posts are chalk-full of adorable photos that make your heart melt too!






Blog Highlight?

This girl is insanely inspirational. She's on a mission to lose 100 lbs. and is so great on inspiring others to get healthy too! Her Weight Loss Wednesday posts are such a great and very honest way to keep her accountable, but at the same time... I'm reading it and taking notes too!

 

Oufit Additions

Fashion Highlight?

Not quite a blog, but more of a jewelry metropolis really! They have adorable classy bangles, dangle earrings, statement necklaces and so much more at a price your debit card will love! Go shop around (you can thank me later!).



.:::.:::.:::.:::.:::.


So if that doesn't entice you to visit these sites, I don't know what will?! There is something for everyone, so please go stop by and say hi to the girls... and then go jewelry crazy! You would be CRAZY not to!!

Meet the Girls!

Boy, do I hve a treat for you guys!
For as long as I have been blogging, I have loved finding new little blog gems. I scour friend's blog rolls trying to find those diamonds in the rough, and I have found many of YOU that way! :)

Well today, I have four fantastic blogs for you to checkout!

These gals are absolutely fantastic, I follow each and every one of them, and I think you all are missing if you don't already. So here are some fo my friends - go say hello, and let them know where they can find you too!


{ Meet the Girls }


Katie @ AKontheGo


1) Introduce yourself and tell us what your blog about!
Hi, my name is Katie and I write over at aKonthego. My blog is about living your life to the fullest one day at a time. Through sharing about my own style, family, green living, food, cooking, fitness, emotions, relationships, travel, oh and of course my dog Watson, I hope to inspire you to encounter your own life. Feel it, taste it, touch it, live it! Each day is an opportunity to live!


2) What are your favorite things about fall?
My favorite thing about fall is when the temperature drops and the leaves begin to change. After living in other states without such drastic seasons I get really excited about the changes in Minnesota weather. Fall offers up a fresh start and plenty of opportunities to cozy up with my family. Fall is by far my favorite season. Hot cider, warm blankets, and crisp air. What could be better?


3) Why do you enjoy blogging?
I have always preferred to communicate through writing. I'm the girl who keeps a journal, writes notes and letters, and pours her heart out in greeting cards. I enjoy blogging because I feel like i have a lot to say about my crazy life and most of it could benefit someone else. I enjoy sharing my experiences and connecting with a big world from my home.


4) Describe your blog in 5 words!
Interesting, insightful, inspiring, reflective and open.


5) Why should people stop by?
I've been asking myself this same question recently. I think people should stop by for a refreshing viewpoint of the world. They should read for some inspiration and tips on living a full life. They should keep reading for great stories about a sometimes unconventional life. Most importantly they should stick around because big things are about to happen this winter and I'm excited to share it with them.




Rachel @ Simple Little Joys

1) Introduce yourself and tell us what your blog about!
My name is Rachel and I blog at {simple.little.joys}! I blog about anything and everything that life entails: weekend fun, DIY projects, fun recipes, my weight loss journey, and all the simple little joys in between!


2) What are your favorite things about fall?
My favorite things about fall…oh goodness, that's a hard one to narrow down. Well definitely all of the fabulous decor, first off! Pumpkin ANYTHING. All of the yummy fall goodies that we love to bake! The crisp in the air makes me happy! I love being able to wear jeans, boots, and a pretty scarf on a daily basis. Fall is my favorite!


3) Why do you enjoy blogging?
I love blogging because it really helps me document my life…helps me remember all of the little moments that happen while the big things are going on, too! The thing I love most about blogging is all of the amazing friendships I've created and the wonderful women that I "know" through this crazy blog world!


4) Describe your blog in 5 words!
Gracious, I don't know 5 words to describe my blog! Help me out here haha I'll have to think on that one!


5) Why should people stop by?
I'm just a 20-something girl, living life and enjoying the ride…I always keep it honest and real. I get a huge kick out of trying new recipes, baking up a storm, and crafting, so you're sure to find something fun! I love to have a good time and enjoy life to the fullest, so I'd love to have you stop by and stay awhile.



Nikki @ From a Miss to a Mrs.

1) Introduce yourself and tell us what your blog about!
From a Miss to a Mrs. I blog about planning and paying for a wedding, being a newlywed, cooking, home decor and dogs. Pretty much a hodgepodge of a twenty something newlywed.

2) What are your favorite things about fall?
I love boots and sweaters!! and fall scents (like apple spice or cinnamon coffee) and I love the fall flavors that come with coffee and holidays.


3) Why do you enjoy blogging?
I started my blog because our family is spread out, but now my family doesn't read it and my blogging friends do! I love blogging because I get to meet and reach out to new people from all over, and share my special life and the fun things I do with others :)


4) Describe your blog in 5 words!
Fun, energetic, honest, yummy, helpful


5) Why should people stop by?
If you're into dogs, books, cooking, sangria recipes and being in love, my blog is the place for you. I don't do fashion posts and I'm not a super crafty DIYer (although I do try) but I am an honest look into being a newlywed at 25 and all the joy and drama that goes with it.



Hannah @ Flamingos in Raincoats

1) Introduce yourself and tell us what your blog about!
Hannah, Flamingos in Raincoats, I'd call my blog a "lifestyle" blog, whatever that means! I love to blog about food, music, and my day to day life as a grad student and newlywed living in North Carolina.


2) What are your favorite things about fall?
Oh! I love everything about fall! i love the temperature drop, the pretty fall leaves, apple cider, pumpkins, and boots with tights!

3) Why do you enjoy blogging?
I enjoy blogging because it's a great creative outlet for me. I like the idea of keeping journals, but typing is so much easier than hand writing everything! Blogging is a great way for me to preserve moments of my life and it's a fantastic way to keep track of all of my recipes!

4) Describe your blog in 5 words!
Flamingos wearing raincoats... duh! ;)


5) Why should people stop by?
stop by for funny stuff, stuff to eat, stuff to make you roll your eyes, and stuff that i hope you'll enjoy reading!
