YAY WE DID IT! I MADE IT! ONE YEAR OF BLOGGING!
This is so exciting! It is exactly one year today that I started this blog (formally www.poptartsandsexx.blogspot.co.uk). It was a humble beginning writing about Doc Martens and books but I feel in this last year my writing and blogging ability has definitely grown as has my - yes I'm going to say it - fanbase. I can't believe I am at over 800 followers on GFC, that's nearly 1000. There's no way that a year ago I ever thought I'd actually be noticed by people, let alone blog every other day for a full year! I've never kept at anything, I can't write diaries because I get so bored, but for once I've found something that I love and want to do for as many years as possible!
I've had some great experiences this last year: Meeting Laura (lisforladybird.com) and becoming bezzie blogger mates, going to FABB events in Manchester, being contacted by Mercedes Benz and Nokia and making loads of friends on twitter. I've also had the wonderful privilege of reading and keeping up to date with YOUR blogs and YOUR lives and I'm really thankful for that!
I just thought I'd also post my favourite blogs/bloggers below, over the last year I've seen these girls grow and their blogs flourish. They were all some of the first to follow me on GFC so they definitely deserve a mention.
Lisforladybird.com - my lovely Laura! I've met her twice now and we are arranging another shopping trip soon when I get my loan in! She is a wonderful blogger and friend and over this last year we've become quite close. She is really lovely and her blog is fantastic!
Stefypuglisevich.com - the gorgeous Stefy from Malta, I've spoke to her so many times on twitter, she's such a nice girl and I absolutely adore her blog and everything she posts. She's a gorgeous girl with a great fashion sense and I'm forever jealous of her blog layout.
Spiderleglashes.blogspot.co.uk - Maya has such a good blog, and I'm pretty sure she was one of the first ever people to follow me on here. I lurk her blog religiously now! She has a great style and I'm always really jealous of her OOTD's.
Beautiful-solutions.co.uk - I love Stacey's blog, it's so cute and she's doing SO well for herself online! She really is one of my favourite bloggers and I love reading her blog.
