Blogger Recognition Award :)

I have been nominated for the Blogger Recognition Award by Olivia, Fashion and Lifestyle Blogger at Absolutely Olivia, Thank you for your nomination and your lovely comment about my blog. Anyone reading this should go and check her blog out 🙂

I started my blog in October 2016 so I’m still relatively new to blogging!! I’m still learning what to do, what to write about, how to gain followers etc but I’m loving it! I started because I love Ballroom and Latin dancing and I love anything beauty related…the 2 overlap naturally given I have to look the part as a dancer whether I’m in lesson, exam or competition so my hair and makeup are an important part of my hobby. I can also talk the hind legs off a donkey so why not start a blog and write my ramblings and see what happens! I enjoy writing my blogs and I enjoy interacting with other bloggers and seeing their recommendations or views on things.

Advice that I would give to new bloggers is purely what I have learnt so far. Gaining followers was slow at first but the more I followed other bloggers, liked posts and made comments, the more followers, likes and comments I was gaining. In doing this not only was I gaining followers but I have learnt a lot in reading the other blogs and it’s so much fun 🙂 So interact with people!!! The second bit of advice is to use social media as much as possible. I have a Facebook page…. Check out my Facebook page and hit ‘LIKE’ 🙂 , I use Twitter and Instagram…to share my page and posts. Sometimes with Instagram I post a photo, perhaps just a layout of my makeup, not to promote a particular blog post but it keeps my blog name out there.

I nominate the following bloggers for this award:
