Hello...again!
So many
thoughts are speeding through my mind as to how I should properly reintroduce
myself to the blogging world. To be honest, it feels like I'm writing a much
dreaded apology letter that needs to be perfectly articulated and emotionalised,
but I’ll try and not take that route.
I started
blogging back in 2013 and if you can look at my entry post, my excitement at finally getting
the blog up and running was quite palpable...I felt like such an achiever! I
imagined that ideas would come to me
like seconds to a minute, that my
amateur photography and editing skills would suffice to produce magazine
quality images of my blogging moments but alas, that was not so; I was completely
dissatisfied with my approach to blogging. I have since realized that it wasn't
my lack of inspiration nor photography skills that got me discouraged about
blogging, but rather I was comparing my posts to that of bloggers who had been
on the scene since 2009 and being a rather private and lowkey person, the need
to be active on social media simply overwhelmed me. Despite all of these
challenges, I still loved the idea of blogging about my beauty finds and
connecting with like-minded individuals and funnily enough, I kept taking
pictures of products I wanted to talk about! It wasn't
until I saw some quotes on Instagram about '...starting where you are...with
what you have…' and '...not comparing your beginning to someone's middle...',
that I got the motivation to blog again and re-explore this creative space. So
here I am...back to blogging...and it feels wonderfully purposeful!
I'm in the
process of revamping the blog because my taste and vision for the blog has
quite changed since I was last active, so please bear with me if you see odd
things happening here.
I love
reading comments and being able to interact with like-minded beauty/style
enthusiasts, so don't be shy to tell me what you think about the blog.
I'll also be
getting back to my social networks (yes, I went totally off the grid...lol) so
let's get in touch...
Thanks for
reading
