3 Years ago today I started my blog, which was then called Unique Style (a little bit of everything). I was inspired from the movie "Frenemies" with Zendaya and Bella Thorne. They were best friends who started a web sight all about fashion. I didn't even know at the time that fashion blogging or YouTube making was a thing. All I wanted to do was to make a blog about fashion and whatever else I wanted to talk about so my friends could read it and enjoy it. Over the past 3 years my blog has changed names 3 times, moved sights and gotten a makeover. If you want you can go look at my old blog Bellagcm.blog.com. Its pretty embarrassing.
I would say that my blog has come along way, with the writing, pictures and also the maturity of the writer. I went from a home schooled seventh grader, to a sophomore at a private school. Not all things have changed. I still love fashion and I still love writing blog posts every week. To me it's not about how many followers I have or the number of comments I get. Its purely a hobby.
Over the past few years I have gotten to do some pretty cool things because of this blog. Not only do I have about 100 of my outfits documented on the Internet I also have touched people in some of my posts which is all I could ask for. I have also got to collab with a few people which is always fun! I also got to do my very first review for a web sight which was a really cool feeling. And my biggest thing I've gotten to do I'll be able to tell you in March but I'm so excited about it!!
I have been inspired by so many for my blog. Most of my outfits are inspired by Pinterest or other blogs. A few of my favorite blogs include; Belleoftheball45, she is a cute East Coast prep blogger. I love her style so much and recently have been basing most of my outfits off of hers. I also love GalMeetsGlam, my sister introduced her blog to me and I love it. Her style is so sophisticated and she is an adorable person. Of course Bethany Mota is a big fashion inspiration for me, I've followed her videos even before she was famous. Her light and smile in every video always made me happy and her adorable videos gave me so much inspiration.
But the people that really kept me going were my friends and family. Every time one of my friends would comment on a blog post or tell me in person that they loved one of my posts, I would be so happy. My family also kept me going with this blog. A huge shout out to Henry my little brother for taking about 75% of my pictures. He should probably get the biggest thanks because I make him go out in 110-20 degree weather and I am not always the nicest model.
Basically I love what I do and I love when I know you guys appreciate it as well! Stay tune for March when I can tell you about my exciting announcement I have! Thanks so much for all the support I really appreciate it!
I wanted to share with you all my favorite blog posts through the year. First, I will start with 2012, the year all of this began. I was very inexperienced so bare with me. This post was probably my favorite because I spent to much time and effort on it and I really liked the way it came out. Now of course today I would have done things differently but I am still proud.
In 2013 That's when I made the big move of web sights. So what do I mean when I say this? Well, before I came to blogger I was at .Blog.Com. Basically I moved because I was unhappy with .Blog.Com and I had heard that Blogger was better, and it is. Anyway, my favorite post would have to be when I made a video. Now looking at it, it cracks me up I have no idea what I was doing. But it took so much time to edit and I was so proud of it! I don't know maybe I'll bring back the Bella Productions.
In 2014 I have so many posts that I loved making. I couldn't pick my favorite so I picked the one I had to most fun making. This was the boys school uniforms. Two boys from my school convinced my to do a post all about how they wear their school uniforms. I have never laughed so hard at a photo shoot!
This year since it is only January I haven't done many posts. But my favorite photo shoot I did right at the end of December and beginning of January. Thankfully I posted one of the three in January so I picked that one. This was when I did a collab with Grace, she is a photographer so she took some really cool pictures of me.
What a great three years it has been! Thanks so much for all the support over the years! I love doing this and I'm planning on doing it for many years to come.
