I have been feeling so uninspired to blog.
I have still been reading all my favorite bloggers and I feel so inadequate!
The truth of the matter is I am not happy about the direction my blog has taken. I guess when you start a blog it takes a while to get a feel for your own style and what you want your blog to be about and what part of you you want to share and have represented on your blog.
My intent in starting a blog was to better document my life.
As I have said before I have a bad memory (and I'm not even that old)!
I can't remember events very well and have a really bad sense of time. I'll think it was just the other day I did something or went somewhere and it really happened a couple years ago!
Blogging is a great digital diary as we all know.
But when I started blogging I was trying to find my "style" and was only talking about beauty or fashion topics. Honestly after a few months of that I was bored! I felt like I had nothing to talk about that wasn't already being said on the blogs I read!
I haven't been doing a lot of shopping. I have plenty of makeup to last me years and I've been gaining a little weight and clothes shopping has NOT been fun. So not a lot of things to post about!
I am still going to post things about fashion and beauty when I feel like it but I am going to switch things up and make this blog a little more meaty and more of a "lifestyle" blog. It may be boring-I am going to warn you right now! But it may be interesting! You'll just have to stick around to find out!
Thanks for reading. What keeps you inspired? Please share!
XOXO

I can totally relate. As you can tell, I haven't blogged in for EVER. Having a one year old leaves me no time lol. I thought blogging would be MY thing but like you said, I have makeup to last me for YEARS! I am however on a new 2011 kick lol to finish more of the makeup and perfume that I have rather than shopping. I just shop to shop lol .... Hugs doll! I hope you have a good day!
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting that you posted this. Just today I was telling by boyfriend that I have been finding some wonderful blogs that have nothing to do with makeup. I really enjoy reading the fasion and lifestyle blogs. I think you should just go for it. See what happens. I can only speak for myself, but I seriously doubt it will be boring.
ReplyDeleteyou should definitely add more lifestyle topics if that's what makes you happy. it's your blog so you should determine what you write in it. i tend to write more about fashion and less about makeup because i just feel more comfortable with that. i also do movie reviews, which isn't fashion related, but that's what i want to write about so i include it. like i said, it's your blog--you should be happy and inspired with each post. i'll still read it! :)
ReplyDeleteI think a blog is better when it's not just about ONE specific topic. I'm still not sure what direction I want my blog to take but I'm sure we'll both figure it out eventually. I'll still love your blog no matter what direction it takes. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you girls so much for your wonderful comments and support!
ReplyDelete@ Lara I have noticed you haven't been posting :( I miss hearing from you! But I can't imagine how busy you must be being a mom!
