Hey fashionistas! Here we are, officially March and almost a quarter into 2019. How did that happen? And here I am, with my last post on this blog talking about 2018! It has been a whirlwind start to the year, so I figured I’d return from my blogging break by filling you into what I’ve been up to since I last posted. Spoiler: there are some pretty big developments.
I started my own business...
By far the biggest news, I quit my job at the end of 2018 to start my own business as a freelance writer and marketer. This is something I’ve talked about, envisioned and wished for over the past several years. I’ve already landed quite a few bylines including two stories that have gone to print in Connecticut Magazine (here and here) and several others in the works. I also took on a massive content marking project where I created about 150,000 words of copy over the past two months (that’s longer than A Tale of Two Cities). Now that I’m on my feet, I’m excited to sink my teeth into some new projects—can’t wait to see what is to come!
Then celebrated my birthday with a beluga whale
In January, I turned 29. Yep, one more year in my 20s people! Sean and I spent the weekend in Mystic, Connecticut, where we ate a lot of good food and spent a rainy Sunday at the aquarium. This whale was nice enough to pose for a photo.

Went to the Connecticut Blogger Babes holiday party
CT Blogger babes hosted a belated holiday event, and it was a great opportunity to network and check out the local blogger scene. It’s always a little intimidating to walk into a room of unfamiliar faces and put yourself out there, but it’s so worth it. I had a great afternoon and even made some new blogger friends who live in my city!
Spent the day at New York Fashion Week
At past magazine jobs, one of my most-anticipated events was fashion week, but after day one or two, it quickly became a drag. The secret about fashion week is that it's a lot of waiting and standing in lines for a few minutes of excitement. That said, I really wanted to go for at least a day and see the scene. As it turned out, I got to schedule three amazing shows and even see a friend in between. I started my morning at Rebecca Minkoff, then headed to Claudia Li (pictured) and Hakan Akkaya. It was a pretty fun day, and it felt great to be there on my own terms.
Congrats on going freelance, i hope you are loving it!
ReplyDeleteGoing to NYFW would have been so amazing

My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr Great can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Two days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Great . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his E-mail:
