Last Thursday I had the opportunity to attend a blogging panel hosted by Mattie and the Atlanta Style Bloggers at fab’rik.
The panel consisted of Cath, Eboni and Cathy, the editors at Asian Cajuns, The Fashionista Next Door and Poor Lil It Girl respectively
The panel discussed some key tips to blogging successfully. Some of the key points were
- Take your blog seriously and don’t accept every PR opportunity offered to you. Be selective.
- If you want to be taken seriously as a blogger, make sure your blog sets the tone via its appearance
- Find ways to freshen up your content. Look for inspiration in your everyday life.
I absolutely loved the decor of the boutique, and the prices were reasonable. If you are in the Atlanta area this is a store worth visiting…I would say tell them I sent you….but
Here’s some photos of the event

Y’all look fab, by the way.

June 5, 2012 at 12:02 pmGreat points. I really agree with the taking your blog seriously one. I’ve turned down companies because I felt like what they were offering wasn’t relevant to me and probably wasn’t going to be relevant to my readers either. Yes, it meant missing out on free stuff and money but I’ve never been one to be motivated by material things.
Love the dress!

June 6, 2012 at 4:07 pmThis looks like a great event!! I concur with those pearls of wisdom, “Take your blog seriously.” And, not taking every PR offer. I’m in the process of birthing new blog and event babies. I’m taking mine seriously :). Great post.
