My Favourite Things Monday: BLOGS!

New feature time!

I decided one way to challenge myself to write more in this blog is to create another feature day so that at the very least I'll be updating twice a week. Plus I just really wanted to have a day where I could share things I find really interesting without turning my blog into a tumblr.

So I present, My Favourite Things Monday! (I know My Favourite Things Thursday has a better ring to it, but I want to space my postings out.)

This week's spotlight on My Favourite Things Monday is: BLOGS!

...More specifically, fashion/ life blogs by truly inspirational women.

I've been following Johanna's blog ever since I was 15 (so about 8 years now), and while it has changed format, from a livejournal to one on her website, it doesn't matter, because wherever she goes I will follow! What originally drew me to Johanna was her art because it had such a distinct style and charm to it, but features like her Wardrobe Project and her collections of vintage EVERYTHING keep me coming back for more!

My friend originally linked me to Kaelah's blog a few months ago and I am HOOKED. I can't get enough of this girl! Her style, stories and positive attitude are so contagious. I especially loved her posts on her SUPER PERFECT marriage proposal. The post written by her fiance and his side of the story was especially heart warming and choked me up. I honestly find this blog to be so inspirational and if you haven't looked at it already I highly suggest you do!

Blargle Fargle is another addiction of mine. Firstly, I love, LoVe, LOVE her hair! It really makes me miss my hot pink hair, but alas, I can't have it anymore because I tutor in a public school. Anyways, I digress. If you are looking for a fun and fashionable read I really suggest you check this blog out! She always has the cutest nail polish designs and she really rocks her unique fashion style! She also has some really great features such as Dress of the Week and Shades of Cute Sunday!

The girls of Delightful Dozen are fashion geniuses! Pretty much the concept of their blog is they will take one article of clothing and take a picture of them wearing it in their own style, then send it off to the other girls to wear it in their own fashion. The result? TONS of new, creative ways to wear one garment and lots of personal style and pizazz thrown in! If ever you are stuck in a rut and think you don't have anything to wear because you have nothing new to wear, check this blog out because it proves just how creative you can get with your clothes!

Messy Carla is another blog I really enjoy because it has such a great message, that you can be fashionable no matter what size you are. As her blog description says, her blog is a fashion blog in a size 16. As for Carla herself I LOVE her style. It's so eclectic and has a bit of everything. I especially love her bright red hair! One of my all time favourite features however is her Girl Crush Wednesday! I always find myself saying I have girl crushes on everyone, so this feature is SO my kind of thing!

So there you have it, the first of many of my favourite things for you to read!

(NOTE: I have tons of blogs I read and absolutely ADORE, so chances are we will see MFTM: Blogs parts 2, 3, 4...etc. But those won't be for a while because I like to space my themes out.)

I hope you all have a great week!
