Yours,
What I love most about blogging is the community, and how kind and supportive everyone is. What I like about reading blogs is finding out that there are so many other people who love vintage too, and discovering styles I would otherwise never know of.
I am looking forward to fall so I can wear my (fake!) fur stole and go for walks in the countryside when the leaves are falling.
From Carys of La Ville Inconnue
i love how blogging makes things so available! people can now look in the lives of people they would never meet otherwise, and share so much more with mo many more people. i love blogging because it's universal and you can basically reach everyone with an internet connection. i love the idea of my drawings being seen all over the world, and not just by the people around me.
i'm looking forward to wearing cozy boots and cardigans, and thinking about warm socks and coats. we'll be making a lot of hot chocolate and organize sewing evenings with friends. i'm looking forward to walks by the seaside when the beach is almost empty and the sea is grey.
my e-mail adress is on my blog!
Reading blogs is an excitment way to discover other people's way of life and realize how many things we can do just to enjoy ourselves and try to create beauty around us.
I'm looking forward to the fall to arrive in order to wear warm clothes and hear the rain droping on my open umbrella. Besides, I think that autumn involves some kind of reborning all around and I adore that fresh feeling of renovation. I'm aware this may sound a bit weird, I mean, the fall of the leave related to new and cozy things, but that's the way I feel about autumn.
You can contact me on: elblogdevelvetwings@hotmail.com
Thank you for offering this give away!
1. All the wonderful blogs out there have shown me that style is very personal. . When flipping through fashion magazines it's just about clothes and trends. When I read blogs I see people's thoughts, experiences and relationships as well. It makes everything more real :)
2. We don't have fall in the Philippines but it is rainy season. It's a great reason to wear boots and a coat in this tropical country!

Thanks, Maria! Awesome giveaway!

Blogs inspire me to live my life fully and creatively. Seeing other people succeed and be happy challenges me to say "Hey, why not me?" I love how the community is so huge yet so tight knit at the same time.
Hmmm...I'm excited about the fall weather and getting back to layers. I have an obsession with jackets!!
kyrakat227@gmail.com
blogging is a great source of inspiration, and such a friendly community! i'm looking forward to fall to be able to wear a vintage wool dress i recently got with knee highs and saddle shoes.
What I love most about blogging is the inspiration and variation of so many different people! I can't wait for autumn to get here so I can wear lots and lots of tights, sweaters, and my favorite, broken in leather jacket. you can contact me via e-mail at amberdanese@gmail.com
have a great day!
Blogging is so great! It's like getting to read through a magazine every day, except with everyday girls who aren't stick thin (by Hollywood standards), don't operate on a $3000 fashion budget, and who create rather than follow trends! Plus, you really do get to know someone's personal style, which is so exciting and fun. It's like playing dressup with your friends every day.
I can't wait for fall so I can feel cozy in my little cabin here in San Diego, make earl grey tea, crochet, read good books with my honey, and maybe finally get a pair of Wellies even though it never rains here. ;) Oh, and I'll enjoy the fog rolling in off the coast!
thanks for the giveaway Maria dear! You are wonderful!

I'm lookin' forward to fall for the weather! Here in Mérida the heat? in summer is unbelievable, and of coursec my birthday :)
paoareli@hotmail.com
I look forward to your blog and many other blogs everyday as it gives me inspiration to wear timeless clothing that brings out both my inner and outer beauty. I love that anyone can start a blog, whether it be small or big, and share his/her vision.
For the fall, I'm looking forward to the crisp weather in NYC so I can bring out my tights and pea coats again. I love the wind blowing over my rose tinted cheeks from the cold. I love the different colors of leaves flying all around. I can't wait to sit in the corner of Starbucks sipping my favorite hot chocolate. But most of all, I can't wait to feel that feeling fall brings: a new school semester, a new start. It's a little uncertain but exciting.
nrp248 (at) nyu.edu
What I love about blogging is reading other blogs, finding inspiration and talking with other bloggers. The blogging community is always so inspiring and supportive. I feel like I always have someone to talk to about fashion and clothing. What a great community!
For fall we always have a lot of great activities and things to do out here. There are craft fairs and fall festivals and apples! I am always excited when fall rolls around. Plus I love fall colors (burnt orange!) and the leaves. It is my favorite season!
thequeenofwanderlust.blogspot.com
Wow! This is such a generous giveaway Maria!
What I like best about blogging and reading blogs is how you can read about so many different people's lives, it opens you up to things you never knew about before and that people are so nice and encouraging to complete strangers. It's such a great community to be a part of.
I can't wait for fall (Autumn) for the cooler weather because this summer has been so hot. I love wearing boots and coats and scarves and hats and cosying up wth a cup of tea in your dressing gown and slippers on a cold evening!
Thanks for another great giveaway!
emmadgrimes@gmail.com
I love reading blogs because they give me new ideas on how to style clothing/accessories and give me insight on how people live in different cities. You all open up a bit of your lives to us who might never have been anywhere near your town and state and that is really cool and appreciated.
In fall I'm looking forward to wearing jackets, leggings, boots, and layering tops and snow again in TX! It was a fluke last yr. but I sooo hope it happens again.
tinatre@msn.com
Thanks for the giveaway!!!
I love seeing the beautiful outfits and locations of the blogs I read. Being able to connect and get a peek into other peoples lives from all over the world is exciting.
As for Fall, I'm ready to change up my wardrobe. Wearing the same things for 6 months gets tiresome. And cooler weather and less humidity would be nice.
Oooo, great giveaway!
I love reading and writing blogs because of the community. The vintage fashion blogging world is so friendly and supportive, and it's great to be a part of the community.
As for fall, I'm looking forward to so many things! Honestly I'm mostly looking forward to all the equestrian themed frocks I've saved for the cooler months, including a cool blouse from the 50s with horses on it!
solanahraquel@gmail.com
Reading blogs inspires me and gives possibility to feel that there are people that see and feel things similar as i do.
I live in Eastern Europe, small country and it is very very rare that you can meet someone with more modern, less stereotipical and peasant like attitude towards thing.
I love summer, bu am looking forward to fall to wear my favorite oxfords, black tights and favorite dresses. Ant to go to university of course.
My email is betas.bode@gmail.com
Awesome giveaway!
I found myself in the blogging world on accident. But it's truly a happy accident. I love seeing everyone's different views on fashion and life and just everything. I'm very inspired by reading what others have to say. You can find/meet so many amazing people that you wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to know.
I'm looking forward to Fall because it's probably the most photogenic & gorgeous season! It's my favorite season to photograph in. The weather is so comfortable for playing with layers while getting dressed.
ladyladybug1991@hotmail.com
this is so lovely!
1.
the variety you get with blogs. i esp love the amazing people on a small budget that look way better than those with bigger.
2.
i struggle with heat so the fall breeze
3.
hiven@live.co.uk
I love reading blogs because you get to absorb all sorts of different perspectives.
Fall. Tights. Boots. YES.
neverhadarealdragon@gmail.com
I think what first attracted me to reading other people's blogs was that it helped me get a fresh perspective on things. I was in a rut there for awhile, especially fashion wise... and seeing all these wonderful girls with interesting mixes on outfits that I myself would've never thought of opened my eyes to seeing things in a new way!
But what attracts me most now is the social aspect of it. I feel like I'm starting to make friends with people I would've never met under normal circumstances. They're all such fantastic people!
For fall, I'm definitely looking forward to cooler weather and a chance to start piling on the layers!

3. imnotyour_star@yahoo.com
1) I love the inspiration, the beauty. I love that usually the clothes and style are way more accessible to women than stuff out of a fashion mag. I love the passion for thrifting!
2) For fall... I cannot wait for the layering, the tights, the boots, the booties, the military... *sigh* I love absolutely everything about fall right now. Hurry up fall!!
3) Awesome giveaway. :) an_original_username (at) comcast (dot) net
Hmmm blogging is an outlet for me to share some of the things I enjoy and also a great way to meet new people. Reading blogs like yours because they are inspiring!
Looking forward to fall so I can start layering and wearing coats!
dressupscientist@gmail.com
1. i love blogging because i've met so many amazing people that i normally wouldn't have met without it. people are so inspirational and they don't even know it :)
2. i'm looking forward to wearing tights again!
3. jazzyhwang@gmail.com
thanks for doing this maria!
Thanks for the giveaway! What do I love about blogging? There's a million things, but recently, I can air my dirty laundry and gripes and still feel a huge amount of support from complete strangers. Pretty awesome, right? And, in the fall I'm looking forward to my birthday! The big 2-5! Love, Annie.
1. The thing(s) I love the most about blogging is that you meet people who have respect for you and eachother, creating a community and getting lovely comments, my heart goes to those people!
2. I'm looking forward to fall because I can show my new fall wardrobe and because I like the coloured leaves falling from trees.
3. bylizz@hotmail.com
I love the wreath, well done! I really hope I win,

I like to read blogs because I love seeing all the different styles. If you read a fashion magazine it's just the same trends over and over again.
And I can't wait to leave this unbearably hot summer behind me and put on a comfy sweater!
smithjulia13@rocketmail.com
I am still a newbie blogger but I love it because of all the creative and interesting people I have met from it. The community of bloggers that I have found are endlessly supplying me with inspiration and encouragement. Nothings better than that.
I am yearning for fall for the simple reason of wanting to don my red pea coat. Even if I have jeans and a t-shirt on underneath, that coat makes you stand out in a crowd for all the best reasons.
AmberBlueBird83@yahoo.com
1. I really love that everywhere in this huge community is inspiration.and when you ask you'll always get a bunch of advices!
2. Can't wait for tights and stockings :) and berets and hats and scarfs!!
3. smraade@seznam.cz
Oooh what a fabulous giveaway! I'd love to win.
What I love about blogging is the endless style inspiration which comes from real girls, wearing real (read: AFFORDABLE) clothes in their real mental/individual/practical/occasional/beautiful ways. It's not the sort of inspiration that can be achieved from anywhere else.
I am looking forward to Fall (or Autumn!) to seek out my cosy knits again. I'm definitely more of a layer-er (summer/hot weather and one-piece outfits confuse me) I prefer to mess things up with my signature red chunky knit scarf and endless vintage cardigans.
You can contact me by tweet @jazz_pad or email jazzpad@hotmail.co.uk
jazzy ♥
You are a very generous person indeed! I think that's what I love about blogging most of all; that suddenly you can connect with people all over the world, that you would never meet normally, and you're not judged. Bloggers are the most open hearted and least judgmental group of people you could hope to meet - their support really is invaluable!
Personally this autumn/fall I shall be rocking the black opaques (a staple) and some shoes so beautiful I want to cry: I'm also hoping to making that season the one for the Return of the Hat!
poppycorkhill@yahoo.co.uk
what I like about blogging is interacting with creative people around the world.
Honestly I am looking forward to fall because hopefully the transition to the "school season" will get me motivated to finish my thesis.
I. I enjoy the creativity of other people, whether it's in art, or the way they express themselves through clothes or the beautiful photos they take, ...
II. One word: LAYERS. Oh and my birthday, which is October 29th!
III. through my blog, or heleen.deboever[at]hotmail.com !
I love blogs because I like to look into lives I could never lead- Parisian girls with long hair strolling down the riverside, girls in rock bands with amazing tour pictures, girls with the best thrift finds ever.
Well, Winter is over here and Spring is coming- I live in New Zealand! I'm looking forwards to being able to wear my summer dresses without an angora cardigan and merino tights every day.
georgianess@gmail.com
I just started my blog a few weeks ago and although it is still new, it seems to be the only thing I am excited about every day. Whether it is reading all of y'alls wonderful blogs or making new ideas for my own. I think when you have a regular job it is important to have a hobby you love!
I don't really have a fall, living in Florida. It is just two seasons hott and humid or sunny and warm. But trust me, we did have a couple 40 degree days last year and I'm hoping they return this year! I need to get some use out of my winter coats, and berets even if it is for a week or two.
Contact me or come visit through my blog...

1) I read blogs for inspiration. I'm still trying to figure out my own style and by reading other blogs and looking at the gorgeous photos there are quite inspiring! I also love how varied everyone is; in my hometown people are pretty homogeneous and its arguable that they don't really have much personal style other than copying others. Reading blogs is an escape from that homogeneity and an inspiration. :)
2) I'm looking forward to being able to layer comfortably without overheating again! :) After seeing all of the fall/winter looks that are starting to come out I'm really inspired and want to make some cool outfits.
3) 5tailfox@gmail.com
Blogging is wonderful because it is a healthy outlet for many people. It's away to express yourself anyway and every way you want to!
I'm looking forward to fall because the weather will start to cool down and the colors all over become so beautiful!
You can contact me at chandlerabs@gmail.com
i love talking to people all over via blogging and sharing a passion for aesthetics together. it's such a fun hobby & i've really enjoyed getting to know people
i'm looking forward to the fall because it's my favorite season! the leaves, the layering, the light breeze.
ameliabedeila08@yahoo.com
I love blogging a reading blogs because it is a way to express personal style and see others style. It is a community where everyone can express themselves and be themselves. It also gives me a ton of inspiration for outfits and DIY's!!!
I love fall for many reasons. I love that the leaves change, and everything is so beautiful. I love being able to layer my clothes. I am especially looking forward to the comfy days and cooler evenings. I can't wait to pull out the cardigans again!
www.thistimearoundblog.blogspot.com
What I love most about blogging is connecting with the type of girls I've always hoped to befriend. Reading some of my favorite blogs is like a having a sneak peek into the lives of intriguing individuals around the globe. And we're all connected/inspired/supported by this thing called "Internet". And, some of those electronic friendships turn into physical encounters with the queen supreme of ladyloves!
This fall, I am looking forward to county fairs, picnics at Piedmont Park, hayrides through cornfields, pumpkin patches, picking apples for candying and baking, and kissing this uncomfortably humid and hot summer good-bye!
thebittenbeat@gmail.com
Blogs keep me updated with what's happening from a non-mass-produced media perspective. Love it!
And I'm most looking forward to rocking my military coat going back to school this fall!
karolinaqueen77@hotmail.com
What I love about reading blogs: looking at beautiful photos of lovely places, things, fashion styles, and long past eras!
Why I'm looking forward to Fall: brisk autumn air, the colors of the trees, the scent of autumn - hmm, it's a cold, fresh scent... like winter and snow is near, I'm not sure how to describe it!
nyrid@hotmail.com
1. I love seeing what everyone else around the world is up to. it gives me SO MUCH INSPIRATION
2. I'm not looking forward to fall as it is a long way off. I am however looking forward to spring which is just round the corner for me. spring lambs, green grass and daffodils!
3. you can contact me on my blog or email teebarham@gmail.com yay! XO
- I love the community of people and how everyone can share their creativity with one another. It's so inspiring to see everyone's styles and how they influence and work with one another. I know it's changed the way I style my clothes
- I cannot wait to wear sweaters again! they make up most of my wardrobe and I'm excited to cuddle up in a great thick knit.
-makeupdesignsbybrenna@yahoo.com
1) I love blogging and reading blogs because I love the community and the friendships and reading about the lives of other people. If your own life gets crazy and a bunch of things are going on, it's nice to know you can come back and just sit and read and laugh about what other people post.
2) I'm not really looking forward to Fall, because I don't have Fall. I'm from Florida, and we only have Summer and Winter. It sucks not having the seasons, but I plan on moving up north for med school, so I'll experience it then =]

I love blogging and reading blogs because I get to share all my amazing finds and outfits with people who are as enthusiastic about them as me, not just my mum! And its made me so much more confident in trying out new clothes and styles. I'm not the right person to ask about autumn, since we're coming into spring now, but I'm looking forward to seeing all the knits and coats on you guys while I'm basking in my first real summer in two years!

Leah at what indie nights?
1. I love blogging because it makes me become more creative with outfit choices. Without it, I might just wear the same skirt/tee every day!
2. I'm looking forward to tights tights tights for fall!! They let you get away with wearing something short, haha!
3. acciohagrid444@hotmail.com
What I love most about blogging is being able to share myself with the world, and what I love most about reading blogs is being able share a piece of someone else and all the incredible inspiration I get from them. Blogs are far better than any magazine by my standards! As for what I'm looking forward to most this fall, it would probably have to be cooler weather, of course, but also the one year mark until my wedding! Fall is my favorite season, so its no surprise I'm getting married in the fall!
Amanda
veggiegirl90@gmail.com
I love blogs because they connect people all over the world who have similar interests. Where I live, there aren't that many people who enjoy vintage fashion as much as I do. I can connect with similar people through blogs, and gain great fashion inspiration!
I'm looking forward to fall for so many reasons. It is definitely my favorite season. I love wearing boots, and tights, and socks and scarves. I can't wait to spend my 21st birthday in California! I'm excited for apple picking and the beautiful foliage and warming up by the fireplace. I'm looking forward to thanksgiving and getting to spend time with my huge fantastic extended family. :) The list never ends...
Thanks for the giveaway Maria!!

1)I like blogging because it gives me inspiration and forces me to put effort into my appearance. I also love getting to know people across the world.
2)We have had the coldest summer here in the past 40 years, so hopefully fall will mean a little warmth! I also love fall colors!
3)(http://showersofsunflowers.blogspot.com)
The great thing about blogging is being able to share and connect with people from around the world. The Internet has made the world so much smaller and blogging is a great way to take advantage of that. And specifically with fashion, it's awesome to be able to get inspired by such creative looks from all kinds of different backgrounds and cultures. The blogging community is amazing too. Everyone is so open, friendly, and supportive. I love being able to share myself with you all!
I'm an October baby and it is my favorite month...but not just because of my birthday. Fall is my absolute favorite season. I love everything about it, (except for the fact that school starts back up :\). The air just smells and feels different in the fall. It's so crisp and fresh. I get to break out my boots and tights for the cooler weather. :) I also love apples and autumn is the perfect season for apple picking. I like to pick apples and make apple pie or apple crisp. Apple cider is good too. :) Finally, I love Halloween. I start costume shopping in the spring. haha. I've had a little ritual ever since I was a kid where I watch Hocus Pocus every year during the month of October. I get sad if it's not on TV even though I have the DVD for some reason. I've rambled far too long about this...
You can contact me through my blog at swingthedayaway.blogspot.com. Just leave me a comment and I'll get back to you! I adore your style. It's so inspiring! :)
1. What I love about reading blogs is just seeing what other people are wearing in the world, it always is inspiring.
2. I am looking forward to fall because it is my fav, the clothes, the temp, the holidays, I love it all!

I love that blogging is a creative outlet that can act either as a stream of conscientiousness or as a more professional means of expression, depending on the blogger!
I love summer to the fullest, but what I look forward to most is the New England foliage and the brisk morning walk to classes in knitted tights and sweaters!
Thanks, Maria, you're just the cutest around!
- Erin, ebmccall@suffolk.edu
Dear Maria,

1. I love the blogging community. Everyone is so genuine and supportive. Not to mention the fact that bloggers are some of the most wonderfully creative and fascinating people I've come across! I am just as inspired by other bloggers' personalities as I am by their clothes!
2. I am very excited to start graduate school this Fall! I think it will be wonderful to take the subway into the city (Pittsburgh) everyday, and to have a reason to dress up, and to sip coffee while reading worn-in old textbooks.

1. I love reading blogs because they are such an inspiration for me! They really give me a boost in confidence to showcase my style! Before, I always felt self-conscious because I dressed differently. Though I like "fitting in" to an extent, I don't want to be another fashion zombie.
2. I am so looking forward to menswear/gender-bender styles this fall! Hopefully that's not "out" already! haha
3. My email: jobear.banana@gmail.com
Thanks and keep up that blogging! :)
Oh Ive been admiring your wreaths! What a fab giveaway.
What I love about blogging...lots of things, finding inspiration from other blogs, having something fun to do in my spare time, having a place to store and share recipes and share new wardrobe purchases, connecting with people around the world .
Next for us in Australia is Spring, so im looking SO SO forward to spring because im sick of the rainly, gloomy winter weather weve been having. I cant wait to wear my dresses again.

I love meeting new people that have some same things in common with me...and I also like seeing how different they all are, too! Everyone is special and I love seeing how they show it on their blogs.
Fall is my favorite season (maybe because my birthday is September 21st?)! I am looking forward to the gorgeous colors in nature and the cooler weather. That, and I can't wait to dig out my cooler weather clothes...

The best thing about the blogging community is how friendly and lovely everyone is!
Well, in the Southern Hemisphere, spring is coming. I'm looking forward to all the lovely flowers!
1. I like reading blogs because they are inspiring. I find fashion ideas, recipes and DIY projects on blogs, and I love it.
2. Well I'm looking forward to Fall because I have never experienced Fall while living on the East Coast. I love Fall in California where I am from. So I will soon find out how the weather will be, if the plants will change, and figuring out what to wear accordingly. The coming of fall is also exciting because My husband and I will be moving from GA to NC, a whole new place to discover :)
3. neoisdc@sbcglobal.net
1. I love reading blogs because they are all different, and unique. Which is inspiring to me to find something different out there and post it.
2. I'm looking forward to fall to wear all of these new clothes that I bought to show off to my friends, and classmates. Oh, and to show my new style that's changed.
3. You can contact me at
tbhill2395@yahoo.com
1. i love reading about peoples adventures (and seeing what they wore on said adventures) from my little apartment on the other side of the world. things seem smaller in the blogger universe, don't they?
2. this might be cheating, since i'm in australia and we're still enjoying the cooler months...but what i looked forward to the most about autumn was crunching through leaves, seeing my breath in the air, drinking never ending cups of tea and not feeling guilty for staying in bed all day and watching whole seasons of tv shows.

I love reading blogs because I find inspiration from other people's takes on fashion. I am anticipating fall coming because I want to wear my boots and layer with vests, sweaters, and jackets soon. As well as thick scarves to tie around my neck!

I love how blogging is changing the fashion landscape - we now can find endless inspiration and don't have to conform to the fashion stereotypes set out for us in magazines and by the big fashion houses. Blogging nurtures creativity and celebrates individuality.
I am in the Southern Hemisphere so we are about to enter Spring! I am looking forward to donning floral dresses with sandals and socks and skipping around in fields.
Thanks for the giveaway lovely.

What I love most about blogging is all the new and inspiring ideas of how to wear items I already have.
As I'm in the Southern hemisphere Im looking forward to fields of wild flowers, new lambs and wearing dresses with bare legs.

Oooh! Goodie!
I LOVE reading blogs because most depict a more attainable and realistic vision for fashion. It's so inspiring :) I love you all!
Fall is my favorite season. I am looking forward to warmer layers, less sweat on my forehead, and raking up and jumping into big piles of leaves!

Thanks Maria!
I love bloging because is really inspiring and it helps me cultivate my own style :)
Fall is my favorite season! I love the coloured leaves falling from trees. And I love the fall clothes! The sweaters, the tights, the dresses, the coats...

thank you for the amazing giveaway :D
What I love about blogging is connecting with people from all over the world, sharing and being inspired by so many different styles! What I'm looking forward to about fall is wearing boots again, thick tights, and my new jacket. Oh, and my birthday. :)
ashtree.meadows@gmail.com
I love reading/writing blogs mainly for the style sharing and the sense of confidence. No one will ever run out of styling ideas if they follow just a few of their favorite blogs. Everyone has different ways of wearing the same style, and that keeps everything so fresh.
I'm looking forward to fall if for nothing else than layering. I love jackets, and flannels, and jeans, and scarves. It has just been so hot all summer, I can't wait for it to start cooling down!

I first loved blogs because they provide inspiration, then you feel a bond with the person..
For fall, I'm looking forward to horse back riding, and wearing my favorite riding boots whilst doing so...

p.s. I am SO entering this for the flroal wreath it's stunning!!
Reading blogs is so awesome because you get to create your own little community full of people from all over and you get gain inspiration and exposure to new music and fashion.
I'm so ready for fall so I can start layering on the sweaters and tights. I also already bought a beautiful new coat from Anthropologie that I can't wait to wear!!!!
I love blogging because of the incredible community it has, and the wonderful friendships I've fostered with other bloggers since starting my own. It was a welcome, and wonderful, surprise to find so many supportive, stylish, amazing women.
I'm VERY excited for fall. Denim, scarves, boots, layers, layers, layers!!!

I adore the wonderfully impressive variety of opinions, cultures, views and ideas that come through at their best in blogs.
Autumn is my favourite season because I get to wear boots with short sleeves :D and sort dresses with cardigans and the colours are the most impressive of any season.

YES!!! I'm so glad you're hosting a giveaway.
Ok, so 1. I love reading blogs because people include you in their circle. They have the guts to tell people about themselves and be themselves. And also, I'm always interested in people's different personalities and cultures, and blogs gives me the opportunity to encounter more.
2. I'm looking forward to fall because it is such a cozy time of year! A music program that I am in starts up, and I love hearing the leaves crunching under my feet, and the rain pattering against the window, and watching movies with the glow of the sun setting in my window, and wearing the color green, and wrapping up in warm scarves, and brown boots, and layering.

1. I love meeting other people who are passionate about the same not-quite-mainstream things that I'm passionate about. For example, this weekend I got the chance to hang out with another big bike blogger visiting Chicago from Canada and she was fab!
2. I look forward to riding my bike without sweating, for sure.

My reason of why I love the blogging community is because I feel like I know every one of the bloggers that I follow. It almost feels like a big family, and I like that. Oh my goodness! Why am I looking forward to fall? Because I can wear half of my wardrobe! I have so many cute outfits planned for fall. I love all the fall trends too. I am going all nature girl here, but I love being outside during fall. The weather and the trees. I love it all!

There is nothing quite like blogging/reading blogs. Every blog is as unique as its writer, and reading blogs is an amazing way to find inspiration for your life, day to day. The blog world is always changing and reflecting real people's interests, and the people who comprise blog communities are some of the most supportive people around.
I'm looking forward to warm apple pies, jumping in piles of leaves, and black knit tights.

I love learning about people and seeing them express themselves. I love connecting with others and building relationships with them, and hopefully friendships if possible.
This autumn I look forward to teaching my older son stuff because I'll be doing homeschooling for his pre-school. I hope I can do an okay job. This is my test run to see how well I do to determine if I want to continue to or now. Other than that being with my youth group kids again.

p.s. It has been my dream to wear something like this in my hair. I hope that whoever wins will wear it often as I would. but hey, i'm a flower-in-hair addict as it is.
The thing I love most about blogging is the inspiration. I get to see how creative other bloggers are and it inspires me to be more creative myself. I now look forward to getting dressed everyday and trying out new combinations. I no longer play it safe with my wardrobe.
I'm most looking forward to Fall layers. I get to pick out even more clothes to wear and try even more new combinations.

1. What I love about reading blogs
The sense of escapism and the ideal. Being able to look upon all these beautiful ordinary, everyday people with their lovely fashion sense and having something to aspire to. But also the ability to find new artists and follow their work, its all inspiring!
2. Why am I looking forward to Fall?
The autumnal colours and the chance to start wearing my warmer dresses and clothes again, the beach during autumn is nice aswell (live around the corner from it) it's during a time where its warm verging on cool and the place is so much quieter without all the families around. Autumn is just a great time for escapism before the cold, dark days of winter take hold.

The best part about blogs is their 24/7 availability. You can always get inspired, you dont have to pay for it or live in a certain country to read them. Thats what makes them so unique.
Autum and Winter are my favourite times of the year. I'm a couch- potato and love to sit inside, watch a movie or read something while eating.
The best thing is, that I don't have to have a guilty conscience for not going outside, because its always cold and rainy during autum.

I enjoy reading your blog. Nice giveaway :)
I have been dreaming of a floral wreath! So I will start to cross my fingers now and hope I win! :) What I love the most about blogging is being able to escape the real world for a second, and enter into an encouraging land of stylish people who can inspire you, but also who you can inspire. I love that its just a canvas of self expression, and getting to read lovely blogs like yours for example! I am most looking forward to fall for leaf fights, pumpkin pie, plaid, capes, boots, socks, everyday and all day. eep! You can contact me through my blog or email :) kate_morrisonxo@hotmail.com

1. What you love about blogging/reading blogs.
I love reading blogs because they inspire me so much -- without them I'm still be the girl I was in middle school -- pink sweatpants and hoodies with sayings I thought were witty.
2. Why you're looking forward to Fall.
Layers, layers, layers.

What an AMAZING giveaway, I love your blog!!!
I love reading blogs because the amount of inspiration they offer's just immense. I love seeing how women from different parts of the world dress up, and how style may be affected by one's current location.
I live in Southeast Asia, and the concept of fall is absent in my country. Nonetheless, I look forward to autumn because there's something about the season that's just so romantic. I can't wait to live vicariously through your blog posts! <3
