My path has not been determined. I shall have more experiences and pass many more milestones.
Hi Everyone,
I am so excited! It has been one year since I started this blog (well, one year and two days).
So much has changed since I started Fabulous Perks. I honestly didn't know what to expect. I have learned so much and made so many new bloggy friends. Before I go on, I would like to send a very special thank you to Missy May, Cookie & Raych for being my 1st three followers that never missed any of my blog posts. You are all amazing and I appreciate all the love and positive feedbacks.
I am a little disappointed to have under 100 followers, but I have to admit I wasn't consistent. I wasn't putting in the necessary hours needed to be a successful blogger. I also struggled with self-doubt. :/ I don't know why I do it, but I do! I can be really hard on myself and my pictures sometimes.
I guess I tend to forget that I am not a professional and my pictures are not going to come out perfect all the time. Half the time it's just me and my tripod out there. I don't have anyone telling me my hair is out of place, or my skirt is twisted or I have lipstick on my teeth. (Lol, I never had a shoot where I found lipstick on my teeth, but you get what I am trying to say) It's not easy being a fashion blogger. I want things to be perfect all the time!
I gave birth since I started this blog. (My first blog post here) When I gave birth, my son became my main focus. I have learned how to manage my time to make time for what it is I love to do. BLOGGING! :)
To celebrate this journey, and those who chose to take it with me, I teamed up with Tanny's Couture for a $50 gift card giveaway. You don't have to follow me and tell me you love me, but if you want to win I suggest that you do. Kidding!

You only been doing this for a year???? Wow, I don't know how you can doubt yourself. You have amazing fashion sense, and I honestly thought you been doing this for years. I'm glad you decided to stick to this, because from the sound of it, you are as stubborn as me. I remember my first couple of shoots, and my pictures came a whole lot worst then yours (*chucking*), but I keep at it lol. Congrats on your anniversary and I look forward to seeing more of your fashion post.

Congratulations on your 1 year Blogoversary :) You have created a FABULOUS blog. I love seeing the fashion, and what you pair together. I love this outfit btw :)
ReplyDeleteWOW you look AMAZING! And I love those shoes... they're a great colour, I bet they work well with just about any outfit!
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't worry about having less than 100 GFC followers because for some reason Google Friend Connect hasn't been working too well lately. Every time I try to follow someone, I get an error. So I usually try and follow them a different way. Twitter, Bloglovin, Google + etc.
Happy Blogoversary, by the way!
You are absolutely right! Thank you so much.
DeleteCongrats on your anniversary!! I LOVE those shoes btw!!

ReplyDeleteHappy One year Blogiversary!! I can related since I'm still under my 1 year of consistent blogging. I love coming on your blog and seeing what you will wear next. You look pretty amazing in everything you wear and I was sure you had a professional taking your pictures till you mentioned using a tripod! Keep up the good work and here's to many more years doing what you love! =)
ReplyDeleteI'm LOVING your outfit!!! You look fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteI really like how the nude and white pair together. You do a great job with your tripod and photos!

ReplyDeleteHappy Bloggiversary! Congrats on that milestone. Many people give up at the first sign of trouble and you stuck with it. I started blogging in 2010 and consistently had 0 comments and 0 followers and that never stopped me. I still don't have a clue what I am doing to this day......I just write from the heart.
ReplyDeleteQuestion - Do you ever consider using other models or showcasing award shows or fashion shows? I haven't been following you for long so I am not sure. I ask because I know some high schools have fashion clubs and they are eager to get written about. Best wishes for many more years doing what you love!
I love these two dresses:
