Featured / Copious Crush

Last week, online social marketplace Copious featured me as their “Copious Crush”!

If you haven’t stopped by Copious yet, it’s crazy cool. You can post things you want to sell ranging from clothing, accessories, housewares, art, etc. and see what your friends are buying and selling as well.  It’s a social marketplace. I had mentioned them in my Transitioning to a Cruelty Free Wardrobe post as being a great way to rid your wardrobe of leather and wool and replace it with even better vegan stuff.

You can check out the interview, along with my favorite vegan friendly picks currently on Copious by clicking here.

Featured / XOJane

What an insane week. Between the holiday weekend, and then IFBCon, LuckyFABB, and the craziness of both fashion week and a full work schedule I totally forgot to mention I was featured last week on XOJane!  You can check out the full feature here.

I have an insane amount of photos to process from all the events I’ve attended this week.  Stay tuned for a detailed recap early next week.

IFB / Links a La Mode

IFB chose my How to Pack for a Trip post as one of the Links à La Mode picks for the week of August 23rd!  I’m honored to have two of my posts chosen within a month. 

For any fashion bloggers attending IFBCon or LuckyFABB, these tips are great for when you’re packing for your trip to NYC.  Congrats to all the other bloggers and I look forward to hopefully meeting you all at IFBCon.

Size Matters

Edited by: Emily of Sugar & Spice

Well, IFB have certainly started something: a debate on the internetz about size and how it matters – or not – in blogging and, more importantly, whether it should matter. This week’s post reflect this discussion and put forward some compelling and eloquently written arguments. Make sure to read and digest these posts and hopefully come back next week with your own responses and contributions? Here in the UK it’s nearly the last Bank Holiday weekend of the summer which can only mean one thing: Autumn’s around the corner – and the IFB Conference. Clearly a lot of this week’s bloggers have next season on their mind as they have been writing about their favourite trends for the new season. And if you’re attending the IFBCon next month, make sure to check out the packing guides below:

IFB / Links a La Mode

I so excited to announce my Transitioning to a Cruelty Free Wardrobe (originally posted here, cross posted to here later), has been featured on Independent Fashion Bloggers Links a La Mode for the week of August 8th!  I’m beyond stoked about this because IFB members for the most part are not vegan (and not to mention very fond of their designer goods), so to have this specific piece make the list totally made my day!

You can catch my link, along with the other chosen links for the week below.

Interview for Inexpensive Chic

I recently was interviewed by Niyah from the fashion blog Inexpensive Chic. You can check out the interview over on her blog as well as find a ton of information on looking fab on a budget by clicking here.

Featured on Vegansaurus

I’m so excited to have our veg Thanksliving feast featured on my favorite vegan blog, Vegansaurus!  There are two things in this world I love to death, one is veganism and the other is dinosaurs (yes, I’m a child at heart) so of course their website would be my most favorite site ever.  It also helps that the writers are just straight up hilarious.

Every Thanksgiving they do a roundup of some of the most delicious looking vegan dishes readers served over their holiday.  Be sure to check it out, but not if you’re hungry because that’s just torture.

Freshly Pressed

Absolutely cannot believe Brooklyn Bliss was selected by WordPress for Freshly Pressed… again!

I was totally taken by surprise this morning seeing my face on their homepage. How bizarre. Last time I was featured it was for a blog rant I had raving about my Kindle. My cat Mercedes had the pleasure of being the featured photo. It’s fun for me now to be featured for a random post I did on what I was wearing… albeit it what I was wearing on a day I couldn’t remember what the hell I did that day. Facinating material. I’m sure I’ll always remember this outfit now though.

Thanks again to WordPress, the WordPress blogging community, and all my new readers.

Featured on MTV Style

Just when I was feeling like a totes bad blogger (I know, I know it’s been months since I posted!), I check my site today and see I was featured on MTV Style on June 9th!

Time to get this blogging party started again.
