fun fact friday vol. 4

On how I stumbled into the blog world.

A little over 2 years ago I was over at my family's house doing laundry and using their computer. I was Googling 'Zooey Deschanel hair' when I found a photo of some other cute girl with awesome hair that was not Zooey, but in fact Rhiannon instead. I looked through this 'thing' (I was pretty unaware of blogs at the time) of hers and was kind of in awe. 'Wait, this girl wears really cute clothes and takes pictures of them and people read/look at it?' and then, 'she makes a living selling vintage clothing online?? that's so cool!' I then took the next couple of days to read her entire blog and was so inspired by this new discovery. I found that there were a ton of other super cool and adorable girls out there doing the same thing! I started reading a few other blogs and really wanted to be part of that world. I had already been shopping at thrift stores and altering clothing for myself and thought that having my own shop would also be the greatest thing ever! So after a couple of months I decided that I would go for it! I started my blog and opened my shop and have been loving it ever since! 

How did you get into the world of blogging? Did you kind of just stumble upon it like I did? I'd love to hear your story!

I've only met one other blogger before. 

It was quite a while back. One day at work I was working the fitting room taking people's things and getting them into rooms. Then all of a sudden there was a familiar face in my line, just waiting to be helped. I was shocked, a little confused and almost starstruck. With it being really busy at the time I just quickly helped her into her room. Then I was like 'I'm being crazy, I should just say hi and tell her I like her work.' So, when she returned the items she didn't want I (was pretty sure I) sounded like a huge creep and said something along the lines of 'I just wanted to let you know that I know you're Blooming Leopold and I really love your blog!' Luckily she didn't act like she thought I was a weirdo and was perfectly nice and sweet about it!

I am excited to announce a new feature here! Fun Fact Friday! So, here it goes!

I love cats. Cats and cat themed things, funny cat pictures, you name it. But I've only ever had one cat and for only a short amount of time. One day at our old apartment that I shared with my boyfriend, Rickey and best friend, Mary Kate, this adorable stray cat ran inside and up the stairs while we had the front door open. She checked the place out and little bit and then proceeded to nap for a couple of days. Since she was so cute and didn't already have a home we decided to keep her and name her Bosley. Everyone loved her, she was such a hit with all of our friends that came over. And she took the goofiest pictures, i love the one at the top, she looks drunk. haha.
