I want to take today to share some of my favorite blogs with you. I find these blogs so inspirational and many of these ladies have become my friends through blogging. Each blog is very different and all touch on different aspects in life. One thing they have in common though is that they are all gorgeous to look at and each post is like a little adventure! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Organic Beauty Talk
Brandie of Organic Beauty Talk is one amazing lady! We've become friends through Twitter and she has been so kind to me. Her blog is INVALUABLE. I know for myself, it has been a struggle to find truly organic beauty products, but her blog is a wealth of information on the best of natural and toxic free beauty and skincare. She does reviews of products and has very strict guidelines for which products go on her site, which I truly appreciate! She is very passionate about organic beauty and so am I so it's only natural that we became friends. She also featured me in an interview on her blog which I was so so happy to do!
The Bohemian Collective
So I follow the blog, Violet Bella (which I love!) by Laura and when I heard that she was starting another blog called The Bohemian Collective, I was instantly intrigued. It's an absolutely beautiful blog that collaborates several artists to inspire us fellow bohemians and also to give back to the community. The lookbook that Laura created showcasing the artists is STUNNING. Love it. Although the blog is fairly new, I've spent an ample amount of time getting lost in it and I suggest you do the same. It will make you very happy :)
Reign Magazine
This is the online magazine to go to if you want to bring out your inner sex goddess. They have some very interesting articles on boudoir DIYs, art and culture, love and style. It's a REALLY fun and beautiful magazine to read and they are part of the new lifestyle brand Naked Princess which offers gorgeous lingerie pieces and accessories. If you're looking for something new to browse on a lazy Sunday that isn't a blog per se, but a collection of really interesting articles, then check Reign out for sure.
Little Tree Vintage
I love Little Tree Vintage by Maria so much! It's an adorable blog that showcases her personal style. I'm always so intrigued by style blogs mainly because I've tried to do personal style photos myself and I'm terrible at it. Not going to lie. So I have much respect for style bloggers and I especially like Maria's unique style. I found her through Twitter and I'm so glad I did. Her personality not only shines through in her photos, but also in the stories she tells too with each post. Did I mention that she has an AMAZING ring collection? ...check it out.
Sequins and Candy
I love Fawn's blog! Fawn and I used to work together for a short time at Anthro a couple of years ago. I remember her having really amazing style and then I found out that she is also an extremely talented photographer after seeing the wedding photos for a couple of former co workers. I immediately went to her photography site, Sequins and Candy. I honestly could look at those photos forever, they are so gorgeous. She also has a blog that I love, Cleanup on Aisle Four, which she showcases her awesome photography and cooking skills. Her blog just has that Southern California vibe to it that reminds me of home...goes perfect with some Best Coast playing in the background.
Paper Crowns
Paper Crowns to me is like the perfect blend of style, decor, design and lifestyle all mixed into a very pretty blog. The blog follows Natasha and her husband on their adventures through the lens of some incredible photography. She is a graphic designer and showcases her impeccable taste in all areas. I especially like her home photos and her wedding DIY projects. I actually might use one of them for my own wedding this year! Also, her wedding photos are to die for...
Tara Polly
I'm always amazed by great photography blogs and I love Tara's Polly's work. Her real life photos are such a trip to look at because she's able to capture genuine heart touching moments in time. She tells a story through her photos which I just find so interesting. Tara and her husband go on adventures throughout Colorado so it's a bit of a travel log too and when I visit I get to vicariously live through her adventures since I'm dying to go on a road trip. I'm also always impressed by her Instagram photos too, I wish mine could look like that! Last but not least, she has lovely style posts as well. Overall, it's an extremely rich blog of real life, gorgeous photos and great style.
My Marrakesh
I first heard of My Marrakesh through an article in Elle Decor which featured Maryam and her husband's absolutely stunning home in Marrakesh. After reading the article, I found out she has this amazing blog which features all aspects of Moroccan design from tea cups to textiles to architecture to style. She just recently wrote a book too called Marrakesh By Design and I loved following all her tweets when she was on her international book tour, so exciting! Maryam and her husband also own a luxury boutique hotel in Marrakesh as well called Peacock Pavillians which looks like heaven. After reading tweets about fresh baked banana bread in the morning or doing yoga in the olive grove, I know that SOMEDAY, I'll be staying there. Did I mention they leave homemade truffles on your pillow? Um...yeah...heaven.
There you have it, some of my favorite blogs to read! I really encourage you to click through to check them out. Each one is unique and special which is why I love reading them!
