My questions:
1
Why did you start blogging?
I started blogging
to break out of the mundane day to day of the start of my teaching career. I
was surrounded by quite boring people and thought “There has to be people that
are interested in the same things I am” and I found blogging.
2
Who is your favorite designer?
My favorite
designer is Betsey Johnson, her patterns, I love the style of her purses, her
carefree runway shows complete with a cartwheel at 72 years old! I especially
love her interesting handbags.
See what I mean?!

What is your biggest
problem/challenge when it comes to blogging?
I think my
biggest challenge when it comes to blogging is the desire to work with more
brands and sometimes feeling stuck/lost with how to reach out and create the
types of relationships that I want through blogging.
4
What is your favorite part about
blogging?
My favorite
part of blogging is the ability to share things that make me excited to get
dressed, and put on makeup in the morning. I love to connect over clothing,
home décor, food, and the little things in life. I thought that I was the only
one who paid attention to these details and really enjoy getting dressed.
5
Where is your favorite place to
vacation?
My favorite
place to vacation is my dad’s hometown in Italy, we used to go every year when we
were kids and I haven’t been in over 5 years. I loved growing up in that small
town.
6
What is your favorite accessory?
My favorite
accessory is a bit of a necessity, my glasses. I have about 20+ pairs and I
really enjoy wearing glasses. I think that they really finish outfits for me.
7
What is your favorite food?
My favorite
food is sushi. I could eat it every day. I really love seafood, especially
lobster and crab!
8
Cats or Dogs?
If
you asked me this in September I would have said “DOGS! Hands down!” but in
October we added our kitty Arnold to our fur family and he is seriously
adorable. He loves to cuddle, is very entertaining and I really enjoy having
him around. Our dogs Maggie and Barry are still pretty cool too… Who am I
kidding, I would take cats + dogs over humans any day...
9
What is your all time favorite
book?
Wow, I am
not sure why this is such a hard question. I don't really have one, this is why
I added “reading all the books on my night stand” to my Summer 2015 BucketList.
10 Who is your favorite blogger?
I love a lot of bloggers, especially the
chicas I met at Texas Style Council in March. I would say the two bloggers that
I read and follow on the daily would be Hilary from Cutie Cameras and Nicole
from Writes Like A Girl. These girls are seriously adorable and total
sweethearts! I am so happy I got to meet them in real life and continue to
connect with them.
11. What is your favorite season to
dress for?
I
think my favorite season to dress for is early fall, like
September into
October. I love the ability to layer if you
want, but you can still get away
with more summery pieces
with pants.
