One of my favorite things about where we live is the trails all around us! (To be fair, Tyler uses them way more than I do.) This one here is a two mile walk to a Sonic. We have a plan to walk the two miles to Sonic, get some ice cream, and walk back to our house! Maybe now that it is in writing we will actually accomplish it, ha! Nevertheless, it makes for gorgeous outfit photos!
A little over a week ago, I was tagged by Sally of Pressing Flowers (you may know her as SallyMander9) to do the Virtual Blog Tour! I have not done a tag on my blog for awhile now, so I thought this one would be fun to do! Here we go : ).
What am I currently working on?
I have so much I want to do with this blog! First, my one year anniversary is nearing. I am trying to think of something fun to do to celebrate! Additionally, I have very recently started my Youtube Channel. I have only uploaded two videos so far, but I am obsessed! I did not even know a beauty + fashion committee existed on Youtube until last August, and I was hooked instantly! I really would like to grow my channel and produce more videos. (Psst... a new video is coming tomorrow!)
How does my work differ from others in this genre?
My blog is different in that I have a Youtube channel to accompany it.Other than that I am just your typical fashion-loving girl, who after years of reading blogs decided to start her own as a creative outlet from my job as a System Engineer!
Why do I write what I write?
My posts are typically just OOTDs with a little information about the clothes, or where I wore them. I like to include a little bit of my personal life in my blog; which is why I do vacation recaps, wedding planning updates, etc. Some of my favorite blogs that I "read" are all just outfit pictures. I always want to know more about what is going on in the posts -- so I try to include details in my own posts!
How does my writing process work?
When I first started writing this blog, I took outfit pictures in the morning before work and inserted them into a post I wrote the night before. That didn't work very well because
That was a lot more text than I normally do -- so if you are still reading, thank you aha! And thank you Sally for the tag!
If you answer these questions on your blog, please let me know! I would love to read the post.
I would love it if you would follow me on GFC or Bloglovin'!

Adorable outfit first of all!
ReplyDeleteLoved reading this. We both have in common the way we write as we include OOTD Photos, snippets about both the outfit and our personal lives. That is why I can relate to bloggers like you. Your blog has become one of my favorites. I wish I had more time to comment on each outfit but it is not possible. Just know that I read even the ones I am not commenting on, Darcy.
Congrats on your YouTube Channel (I will take a peek) and looking forward to what else you got coming up on your lovely blog.
Please make sure you support me back by following on Bloglovin. Thanks so much.
P.S. I enjoyed reading this very very much. I had no idea you were a System Engineer - Brains, Beauty and Style, my friend. If I do this myself, I will make sure to tag you by the way.
Have a Fantastic rest of the week! <3 Ada.
I am youtube obsessed! I will definitely check out your channel! Looking forward to more great videos and posts! :D
ReplyDeletePS: I love your shorts!

Cute outfit. I LOVE Sonic ice cream, so I wish I lived vicariously through you to go on a walk and get some. Hopefully you can get there soon before fall cool weather comes. I enjoyed reading your blog info. Rachel xo http://garaytreasures.wordpress.com/2014/08/05/teacher-gift-basket-back-to-school-ideas-target-giftcard-giveaway/

I am loving this outfit! Also, I love the idea of walking to sonic to get the ice cream and then walking back. I feel like that walk gives you a great excuse for ice cream, haha!

It was super interesting reading about your blog. It's so great to see that even though there's so many girls in the fashion blogging community, everyone has their different way of doing things. Also love the necklace as well!

Congratulations on your YouTube channel Darcy. That's awesome! Two great things about that trail: exercise and yummy Sonic.
ReplyDeleteFun, I love getting to know a bit more about the bloggers behind the blogs I read on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteI still wonder how you get out 4 posts a week! Seriously, it's not a small accomplishment by any means :)
