MJ, of Dreaming Spires and Old Car Tyres, has a blog that makes me absolutely roar with laughter. Her wit and sense of humor never cease to delight me. Couple that talent with her totally amazing DIY projects and you have one heck of a fantastic blogger.
I'm 19, and although I hail from Hull in Northeast England, I'm at university in Oxford.
The reason I started blogging was actually part of my break-up! I'd been looking at fashion blogs for a long time beforehand and my then-boyfriend was always going on about how stupid and frivolous fashion was, so when we finally broke up I said 'you know what? I can do that if I want!' and I've never looked back. I've met such great and interesting people and my style has changed so much - anything but stupid.
My tip would be - don't give up! I see so many new bloggers getting frustrated because they're hardly getting any hits, and then they give up and all that potential is lost. Everyone starts from nothing! So in the beginning, post often, make sure you're polite and comment back, and put thought and care into your posts, and you'll be growing in no time.
I'm a prog rock girl, so my favourite song of the moment would have to be something by Deep Purple, probably Pictures of Home from the Machine Head album. It's a very dramatic song and brilliant for a bit of air guitar when I think nobody's looking.
Lots and lots of scarves! I love a good scarf, and I must have millions sitting abandoned in drawers. So it's my mission this winter to liberate them all, and start styling them with more interesting outfits.
Thanks so much MJ for being my tenth Blogger of the Week!
