How to blog, a helping hand for you and me

This is as much advice to you readers out there, hello btw, as it is as advice for myself, like a little note i can refer to when I'm stuck for inspiration or finding it hard to know what to write.
I have only had a few posts up but I'm hoping that my blog will last forever with a few acceptions that is. I don't want to be beaten by pressure from other bloggers. Blogging is about self expression and is something anyone can do about anything, there are no limits. Personally i want my blog to be about fashion, films, music, lifestyle and beauty. I think blogging will be good for me as at this point in my life as a 15 year old teenager it is good to have something to focus on away from school, its like a little journal of self discovery and expression and unbelievably it could be a career choice for me. I like the idea of having no rules and not having someone telling me what to do and moaning at me. I think i'll always be happy doing blogging because i am doing something that i enjoy.
I don't have twitter and don't like using facebook so my blog is my main expression apart from tumblr and frankly i love the concept of blogging.
So here are some tips for you and me on how to blog!;)
 
 
-Add pictures to any necessary blog post, it makes the page look and feel more interesting
 
-Delegate a notebook especially for blogging to jot any notes and ideas down so you don't forget and can expand those ideas
 
-In your blogging notebook you can always write out a tester of what you want as a blog post and then you can easily change it and make it the best it can be
 
 
-Try and make your blog posts as frequent as possible but don't feel pressured its supposed to be fun!
 
-Try and be unique and come up with new ideas and most importantly be yourself
 
 
-Leave a little introduction in the side bar about you and your blog
 
 
- Make sure to take advantage of the spellcheck
 
 
-Follow other blogs to see what everyone else is doing for inspiration and get involved in the blogging community

Tips and tricks

Hi guys i have a new post for you today. I'm on a roll.
I have been gathering ideas how to add little and effective ways to improve an outfit and here it is. Enjoyx

-Roll up ends of trousers, shirts and jackets. This tip is good if you want to achieve a cool and casual look.
-Buying a bigger a size is a great tip because it gives a totally different effect than a tighter top would as in i've tried but not too hard. It produces a very relaxed outfit. It fits in well with grunge and boho looks too.

-Some may say that trainers are not fashionable and that the days of wearing trainers are over after the playground days are finished and should are only acceptable at the gym. For me trainers are a must have, a definite staple item, they look stylish, can add a twist to a girly outfit, make an outfit look more urban and casual. If you having a lazy day you can always get away with wearing a comfy and cheeky trainer. I do tend to gravitate to the branded trainer such as nike and converse. These two are defo my favourites.

-Not everyone has the confidence to wear a hat but its a fun way to make a statement and change an outfit up. You'll look instantly trendy.

-Experimenting with the colours and lengths can make an outfit. So go buy some ankle ones with frills for a vintage look, over the knee socks or even knee high socks.

-Layering necklaces always adds a unique twist to an outfit especially if there is some chunky chains mixed in with some dainty necklaces.

-Tucking t-shirts into trousers, shorts or skirts makes an oufit look more put together and more vintage looking.

-A hippy headband is a great way to accesorise an outfit and one of my favourites whether its colourful or simple that always look awesome.

-Lastly, to make a vintage look even more vintage add a brooch to make it look a bit more personal and indeering.


thanks for reading

Lots of love daisyx

Style icon-Claudia winkleman

Todays post is about the lovely claudia winkleman.She is a tv and radio personality whos had a very successful career starting back in the 90's. I have always admired her for her distinct fashion and personal appearence. I love the way her make-up is always matt and her eyes always have black eyeliner around them. Her hair is also very distinct it is always short with a fringe and very choppy, sharp and blunt. She hasn't changed the colour. For me she has totally made a statment that seperates her from anyone else but it is very laid back and simple.i look to her for inspiration whether that be her make-up or fashion. Her fashion always tends to be quite tailored or floaty and glamorous. Block colours are another thing she is seen in. If she is not in a bright block colour most of the colours she wears will be quite neautral. i would normally associate her with black clothing. She is definitley one of my icons.
Hope you enjoyed this post and that you too can take some inspiration from it x
