One Year – Living a Bowtiful Life

January 20, 2013

~Happy Birthday Bowtiful Life!~

It has been exactly one year since I sat down and published my very first post on Bowtiful Life, a site that was first created as a fun little hobby, but quickly became a very important part of my life & my identity. On January 20th, 2012 when I hit that “publish” button, I became a writer, a fashion consultant, and the blogger behind Bowtiful Life.
I don’t know if it’s even possible to express just how grateful I am to all of you for the amazing support you’ve given me in the past year. I love reading through the many sweet comments and emails I receive. Thank you for each and every one of them, they make my day and I absolutely love hearing from you! Also, thank you so much to those of you who like the Bowtiful Life page on Facebook. I never thought that I could hit 150 page likes so quickly when I created it in back in June of 2012. I’ve also gained a lot of followers on Twitter, Pinterest, Polyvore, and Tumblr through the blog. Many thanks, I’m so grateful for all of you, you’re amazing! 
 I recently looked back through some of my first posts and realized just how much I’ve grown as a blogger in one year. My photography and writing skills have improved and I’ve definitely gotten more solid in defining my style and who I am as a person. I now contribute to an online magazine on a monthly basis in addition to my blogging and I’ve met some absolutely amazing fellow bloggers online and in real life. I never thought that Bowtiful Life would become something I was “known for,” but that’s certainly what has happened. I have readers from all over United States, as well as the world! I’m living a Bowtiful Life and loving every minute of it.
♥ Here’s to many more posts, pictures, smiles, and bows in the future ♥
Have a fabulous day & thanks for reading!
xoxo,
