Two posts in one day? Yes it can be done. Looking at my calendar today, I realized in order to finish up the 30 for 30 before I leave for a work trip next week, I pretty much need be a baller. You know, knock it out. Pop! Pop! Basically, what this means for you is that you get two of me today {hope you don't mind}. It also gives me an opportunity to answer this week's Friend Friday questions. Here we go.
Creative Juices (most creative) - A Pretty Penny
We all know Keira is adorable and stylish, but she is creative to boot. She's a 30 for 30 remixing pro, a participant in project restyle AND a florist! In my book she can do no wrong.
The Real Deal (authenticity) - Hello, Monkeyface!
Despite her anonymity, Monk is as real as they come. I became acquainted with her blog {charm and wit} during the last 30 for 30, but now I hardly even notice the monkeyface. I think that's a testament to her funny and lovable personality.
Spark Notes (most helpful) - Miss Vinyl Ahoy
I easily could have listed Suze for a handful of these categories. I consider her a real friend although we've never met. She's an open book and willing to help, answer questions or just be an e-mail away to vent. If I ever have a real quarter life crisis, she's on my go to e-mail list for support.
Newbie (best blogger less than a year old) - Dwelling & Telling
If you don't know Linley now, I promise you will soon. She's pretty much blowing up the blogsphere with her awesomeness. And have you seen her go-go-gadget legs? Or her video tutorials? Yeah, just go ahead and click right on over.
Can You Hear Me Now (most connected) - The Auspicious Life
Linda is my Everybody, Everwear counterpart and to be honest she's the genius behind it. Sure, I may have ask a few people to wear gingham, but she's the one who saw the potential. What started out as a small group, is now a monthly group project with over 100+ submissions. If that's not connecting people, I don't know what is.
Tribe Leader (brings bloggers together) - Modly Chic
Friend Friday is the brain child of Katy! Not only is FBFF a great platform for discussion, it's also a great way to reach out and get to know other bloggers.
Practically Perfect (most fashionable) - Kristine. Or Polly.
Oh Kristine. Words cannot adequately describe how adorable she is. I could just pinch her cheeks {and steal her clothes} she's so cute.
Paint by Numbers (best beauty blogger) - The Daybook
Syd isn't a beauty blogger per say, but her makeup is always flawless. Not to mention it always perfectly compliments her outfit. Don't even get my started on the red lips.
Renaissance Woman (best all around) - Kendi Everyday
Kendi, the gal with it all. I've said it before, I feel like I'm cheer captain for Team Kendi. I'm sure you know, but I have it say it, she's great! Not only is stylish, she started a style blogging revolution with the 30 for 30 challenge. AND she's funny! Total. Package.
I'm looking forward to your two-a-days! This is a great one. That cardi could be used in so so so so many ways!

Hahaha, I love you Liz. If I had a dime for every time somebody wanted to pinch my cheeks... well, let's not go there. :P Thanks so much!! And great picks - I think I follow all of these blogs and love them!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, and I think I need to do two a day, too. Mostly because I want to start shopping and wearing my other clothes and stuff. I guess I'm not as legitimate as you.
ReplyDeletejust stumbled across your site. LOVE that i can see the twilight series on the bookshelf in the background ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat minds seem to think alike! I just had your post and Melody's post lined up back-to-back, with a "I've seen that before..." effect. I think it's really cute and you both look great! http://melodysvoice.blogspot.com/2011/02/its-raining-its-pouring-it-might-start.html (I'm not Melody. I just really like her blog :-) )!
