Happy {Cozy-Up} Weekend

If you’re reading this post right now, you might be the only one. That time of year has come – where it feels like half the blogging world as we tend to know it, has runaway to Alt Summit. Sadly I couldn’t attend this year, but I hope everyone there is rocking their high-buns, mismatched prints, standout shoes and oversized jewelry. Oh and getting inspired up the ying yang too. It’s mighty good for that.

For the rest of us, I thought I’d kick off the weekend with two uplifting thoughts:

And you can sleep in tomorrow morning if you want to!

I’ve suddenly rediscovered the teenaged indulgence of sleeping in, like past 9:00 am on weekends, and I’m kinda obsessed. It feels like the ultimate luxury.

And since so many bloggers are getting edumacated this week, I thought I’d get into the action by sharing a bit of blogging wisdom I’ve spied around the web.

~ If you need to be reminded of the blogging basics, here are your commandments.

~ How to write a killer About Me page. Good stuff here people.

~ Victoria’s rad recap of Alt 2012. {it was good, wasn’t it girl?!}

~ Here’s a practical guide for Pinner beginners

~ Yes, social media can make you stupider, or at least feel that way. {thanks Bri for pointing me to this article}

~ And remember, there is more to life than blogging

But blogging is still pretty cool. {See Instagram for sneak peeks of the fun blogging has allowed me to now call work!}

Whatever you’re up to this weekend, I hope you find it refreshing!

Till Monday,

These are all such great links, thank you! I loved the “What Happened to Our Downtime” article. I was a serious Facebook junkie and decided to go cold turkey, deactivating my account two months ago. It was strangely liberating! Social media has it’s definite upsides, but some serious downsides as well.

Hi Erin,
You are so lucky to be able to actually ‘sleep’ in. I try to but my body clock wakes me up waaaaay to early just about everyday. At least I can can be productive and check in on blogs in those weee hours of the morning.
Love your links~ some great blogging resources there. My blog, Stylemindchic, just turned 1. I’m amazed at how much more there is to learn about blogging but I’m enjoying the journey.
Happy Weekend!
Cheers, xx Heather

Yes, sleeping past 8am is such a luxury for me, but usually the guilt takes over as I start going over all the things I need to do. However, having lived in Spain for 12 years I am accustomed to taking a siesta after lunch, which more than makes up for it
Happy weekend from London!
