Hey Dolls!!!
I think that any
Blogger that has successfully made it to their One Year Blogiversary should
give themself a pat on the back!
Blogging is very fun hobby, but it is also something that requires
sincere dedication to make it work.
In this past
year, I have had so much fun sharing my life with you through What’s More
Important Than Fashion? I never knew
that so many people would like, love and appreciate my style and what I have to
offer. For that, I have to personally
thank you guys for all the love and consistent support. After doing this for a year and building
relationships with fellow bloggers, I see just how far this can actually take
you.
Throughout the
past year, What’s More Important Than Fashion? has provided you with some great
things such as:
Blogger Inspired Fashion Week – I absolutely LOVED doing Blogger
Inspired Fashion Week. I think this was
a BIG turning point for my Blog. I
gained a lot more attention and some new followers. It was truly a HIT and you guys voted my
Prissy Inspired Look as your FAVORITE. I
can’t wait to do it again. If you’re a
fellow Blogger, be on the lookout, I may be contacting you soon! J
Bloggers You Should Know – I LOVE meeting new Bloggers and
forming new connections with them. More
importantly, I love sharing what I find with my readers. Of course I did this with my Blogger Inspired
Fashion Week as well as a few other features.
Spread Love Dolls!!!
Interviews – I like to shed the spotlight on
Business Owners, Independent Designers and people who I see making an impact in
life. I was able to do a few of these in
the first year of Blogging, but this year I plan to do more. There are so many fabulous people out there
that the world deserves to see.
Finance Fridays – My original goal for Finance Friday’s
was to have one every Friday and if not every Friday, Every other Friday and I
did not meet my goal. But I definitely
promise to do much better with this going forward.
Fly Girl of The Moment Feature – I love this feature. Here is where I like to feature that I think
are fly and expose them to the blog world.
I prefer to use non-Bloggers because I feature bloggers in other ways. Going forward, I would like to have at least
one Fly Girl per month.
Fly Girls In the Street – This feature was fun. I only wish that I could have had my camera
on me each and every time I saw a Fly Girl (or Guy for that matter) in the
street. To my surprise, people were very
willing participants to pose in their looks and be featured.
My Thrifting Chronicles – I must say that one of the BEST things
that has happened to me since I’ve started blogging is my introduction to the Thrifting
World (well, as an adult anyway). I have
found so many great and unique pieces that I am so proud to tell people, “this
is Thrifted”. This is something that
will probably continue forever! Check this post (here) for one of my FAVORITE Thrifting experiences so far!
Tributes – I took the time to do a few tributes
to some of my favorite celebrities in the past year. Some on good notes and unfortunately one was
on a sad note. Nonetheless, I chose to
honor them in my way on the blog.
Black History
Facts – I wish I would have had time to post EVERYDAY in February. Black History is so important to me and there
is so much to share regarding it. I hope
that my readers enjoyed the Black History Facts I shared during the month of
February, I will definitely incorporate that segment again in February!
Giveaways – In the past year, I hosted 2 Giveaways
and I can’t wait to do more. I mean who
doesn’t like winning things? I know I
do. Check out my Giveaway Winner "Mo" (here)
and how she rocked her Style Manor bag.
Polyvore Sets – How cool is Polyvore? I love playing around with it. It’s so fun and addictive! I shared a few of the sets I created in the
last year here and I need to create some more to share. If you haven’t played around on Polyvore, go
do it now!
Reader Inquiries – I want more of these! Please feel free to send them in to the blog
inbox or the Facebook page. These are so
fun and I LOVE helping people. I will
randomly posts requests for these, I like the challenge.
Shopping Chronicles – I love to shop and I try and share
some of my shopping chronicles on the blog with pictures. In the future, I plan on doing some haul videos.
But Dolls that is not
all! I plan on bringing so much more in
this next year and I’m so excited about it.
Through my blogging experience, I have seen how far Blogging can take
people having witnessed people turn this into a career, a business, a brand,
and some are on their way to building empires!
Isn’t that fabulous? With
Blogging, the sky is truly the limit you set.
Here are some of the things that I have planned for the upcoming year:
Blog Layout Re-Design – I told myself that I didn’t want to
spend any money on my blog until I was seriously committed to it and I feel
like the time is now. I’m over a year in
and I’m committed and want to take What’s More Important Than Fashion? VERY
FAR!!! With that said, you have to
invest in yourself and I will be doing just that. If any of you are talented with Blog Design
or can recommend someone who is, please let me know.
Fly Guys of The Moment – Isn’t it about time we see some FLY
Guys? I know I’m ready for them. I look forward to showcasing some Fly Guys of
The Moment this year!
MORE Finance Fridays – As stated above, I really dropped the
ball in this area, after all this is the other half of my blog and my true
love. Don’t worry, you will be
Financially Empowered reading What’s More Important Than Fashion? going forward.
MORE Blogger Inspired Fashion Weeks – I think that my readers LOVE my “Blogger
Inspired Fashion Week” brainchild. I had
so much fun doing this and I am truly looking forward to doing it again. Maybe I can get it done twice this go round….we’ll
see!
MORE Giveaways – I LOVE Giveaways and I want to GIVE
you more and I will!!! So be ready for
them Dolls!
D.I.Y. – Now, I’m not the most crafty girl on the block but I have
seen some cute DIY projects that I’m willing to give a shot. Not only do I want to give some DIY projects
a try, but I want to showcase some other truly crafty people and share their
DIY creations with you guys. I’m looking
forward to that.
Makeovers – I love helping people come into their
own and what better way to help them do that than with a makeover. This is a dream of mine and I hope to be able
to share this with you guys very soon.
Videos – I LOVE a good haul or demo video, sooooo I figured that it’s
only fair if I do a few of my own, right?
Wish me luck on this endeavor. I
will commit to at least one, LOL!!!
And out of all
of that, the list goes on and on and on!!!!
Dolls, I want to
thank each and every one of your for your love and support of What’s More
Important Than Fashion? and I ask you to stick around, because the BEST is yet
to come.
Love You for Following,
G
