Most of you who are members of Independent Fashion Bloggers have probably seen this, but if not, I couldn’t help but share. I am so thrilled—and immensely flattered—to have been nominated by Christina of Profresh Style, and selected by Jennine of IFB and The Coveted for the site’s July 28, 2010 Blogger Spotlight feature. Thank you ladies!
If you haven’t read Blogger Spotlight: Grit and Glamour, I hope you will. And of course, a humongous thank you, my lovelies, for your continued support, praise, humor, and friendship. I love reading your comments here, as well as your blog posts, and I want you to know that I am so honored by your kindness.
PS: It’s funny how things work, isn’t it? I submitted two photos for inclusion with the feature, and Jennine chose Ms. Crankypants. See, brooding little storm clouds really do have silver linings! Wish I could find that lovely elderly lady and let her know just how influential her compliment was!
