Friend Friday: Authenticity

Friend Friday: Authenticity

I am participating in a fellow blogger, Modly Chic’s series called Friday Fridaywhere bloggers from all over answer specific question to help get to know each other. I am really excited to be a part of such a wonderful group and look forward to ‘meeting’ new people!

This week she is asking us all what authenticity means to each of us. Autheniticity is important in real life, and I have always tried my absolute best to come off on this blog as I would if we were speaking in person. I feel like you guys really are getting to know me. Anyway on to the questions:

1. Most readers and fellow fashion bloggers value authenticity in the 
blogs they read. How would you describe blog/blogger authenticity?

I think blogger authenticity is when a person is truly themselves on their blog, like obviously you want to portray yourself in the best light, but you are real with your interests. As long as you aren’t posting things because you think you should because that’s what other bloggers do, you personality will shine through because you are genuine.

2. When it comes to your blog how to you infuse it with that true/ 
authentic feeling? 
Well I would like to think that my blog’s premise of following my heart to NYC makes me authentic as I am opening myself up for all sorts of things. I really hope that me sharing my struggles (if you can call them that) and journey as a freelance journalist makes me relatable. Plus, I write my posts the way I would speak in real life.

3. Have you stopped following a blog in the last three months? What 
made you lose interest? 


I have stopped following a blog, I check back occasionally but not nearly the frequency which I used too. I kind of, felt like the blogger wasn’t relatable. She was posting pics of her in all these fantastic outfits all the time, and while that was cool, I missed the posts where her personality shined through.

4. We can’t communicate effectively on our blogs, something we don’t 
live in real life… what are some ways you try to live an authentic 
life? 

I am super passionate in everything I do. If you know me, you know what I mean, my voice raises the more excited I get. Whether it’s blogging, arguing, getting dressed, I have never been the most practical person but that tends to happen when you are passionate about things. Did that answer the question?

5. Give a shout-out… Which bloggers do you think are truly genuine 
and why?

I think Arianna’s View From The 36th Floor is pretty true to how she is in person. Always thinking and sparking thought provoking discussion. You should check it out!

Let me know, in what ways can I be more authentic?
