Total coolness: I reached 20,000 fans on my Facebook page yesterday! I'm really excited because I was hoping to hit that number before my blog's 2-year birthday and I did, with 2 months to spare! Yay! :-) Facebook is my favorite platform, because as I explained in this post, I like that people can post their own questions, photos and links to items so that we can discuss things together. I wanted to create a forum where we can (safely!) talk through style questions, because I thought it could be a helpful resource for women on a budget. You guys are what make the page awesome, so a huge THANK YOU for creating such a cool page that I'm excited to be a part of everyday! :-)

Congrats on that major milestone, J! I think your approach to Facebook is really interesting and original, and I agree that it makes the discussions more approachable. And, I was so glad to read in the comment threads a few days ago that MJR sales is a reputable site. A shop from home Ross? Pretty much the greatest thing ever. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats and you deserve more followers. You are a great inspiration. best wishes.

that's so wonderful J!x
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
ReplyDeleteHow do you remember how much you paid for items?
Thanks Andi! I have a pretty good memory but if I can't remember I just go back and look at old posts! (from closer to the time when I first bought the item)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :-) And yes I agree - sometimes I'm feeling tired/overwhelmed to shop stores like Ross or TJ's so it's nice to do it from home. ps. I saw on the TJ Maxx FB page that they might add online shopping soon! I'll keep you guys posted for sure.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet Melissa! I'm wishing lots and lots of blessings and goodwill your way, too! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I have a bunch more articles planned, just need to find some time to sit down and do it. Stay tuned. :-)
ReplyDeleteYay, congrats! What a great achievement. You deserve it, girl! Have a lovely week!

**Congratulations**, J.!! Of the many reasons I just love your blog, maybe (one of) the BEST reasons is because of the way you've genuinely been a Fashion Blogger *leader* in encouraging all women, young and older, to............ wear more *C.O.L.O.R.*............ i.e., by incorporating colorful and affordable pieces/accessories~~(with the prices of your Online Outfits actually listed!!)............ INTO their existing Clothing Wardrobes!!
ReplyDeleteFor young women today, there are (as you know) just so, *so* many pressures............ e.g., Parental/Sibling pressures; or School/Testing/Tuition pressures; or Job/Boss pressures; or having to Work-Far-From-Home/Rent pressures; or Marriage/Kids/In-Laws/Mortgage pressures; etc.; etc.; etc.
Being blessedly-able to choose clothes that are COLORFUL to wear at home, school, and/or work............ (i.e., from that wonderful *Rainbow* Of Colors!!)............ is ONE thing that young women can always, ALWAYS really "hold onto" in their current lives; and you are............ "modeling the behavior," so to speak, J. ............ about exactly HOW to do that, you know!! The self-esteem boost FROM simply wearing color~~(i.e., in how young women and older women feel about *themselves*; and also in how others react *to* them, too)............ just............ totally............ *R.O.C.K.S.*!!
Congrats
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the fans! Way to go!
