Here I am 100 posts later and still amazed that people actually read what I write about!! I’ve had the opportunity to “meet” and get to know some really amazing women in this blogging community that I wouldn’t have been able to otherwise!! I honestly can’t imagine not blogging – I feel like it’s something I’ve been doing forever – probably because I was reading blogs long before I started my own!
I thought it would be fun to highlight a few of the things I’ve learned in these past 6+ months of blogging!!
+ You get inspired by everything around you – walking past a window display can turn into a blog post idea
+ It’s quite normal to take photos of your food before eating it and you’ll stop at nothing to get a perfect blog photo
+ Your friends and family that don’t blog actually read your posts and then tell you what they think about it
+ Coming up with fresh ideas is a lot harder than imagined – but at least you have a cute notebook to jot your ideas in
+ Social media is both your best friend and your worst enemy
+ It’s a constant battle between finding perfect things to highlight on your blog and not spending all your money
+ HTML code is not as scary as is it sounds & you can do it on your own – totally kidding thank god for my husband
+ Blogging friends become IRL (in real life) friends and you text and talk just like with any other friendship
+ You learn so much from blogs – totally cleaned my disgusting microwave from a trick I picked up from a blogger
+ You branch out into a world that’s interesting and exciting to you – hello becoming a contributor to a wedding blog
So, thank you all so much for commenting, reading and following along!! I love the banter that we have back and forth from talking about what our significant other’s would say if we wore high gladiator sandals to sharing the latest and greatest arm workouts!! You guys are seriously the BEST!!
xo,
Biana
Congrats! That cake looks delicious 🙂

Congrats, Biana!!!! 100 posts – how awesome! I am so happy to have connected and found your blog. I enjoy reading it and appreciate your positive and thoughtful comments on my blog too. I agree with many of your highlights above and, hopefully, in the near future I'll be able to meet some bloggers IRL too!
YAY!! Happy 100th post!!! Can we have some of that cake in celebration? 😉 And yes, I agree with all the things you posted that you learn! Especially about the blogging friends becoming real life friends! 🙂

Congrats Biana! I love checking out your blog daily! I feel the same exact way about the blogging community being so encouraging and inspiring! You can learn so much and It is such a good opportunity to meet awesome friends that have similar interests. It is great for me because I don't have lots of time to get out in real life with friends being a super busy mom of 3! It helps me feel more connected. Plus Marc does not have tons to contribute to design/ style related conversation haha! XOXO
Happy 100th post! I agree with you on all of the things you've learned/noticed about blogging… especially the taking pictures of the food one. My boyfriend now knows that when we go out to eat, he can't dive into his food until after I've taken an acceptable picture 🙂 Congratulations!
Yeah!!!!! Congratulations girlie!!!! I am so glad blogging brought us together!!! I'm also glad I finally learned what IRL means 😉 August is going to be here before we know it! Also I love reading your guest wedding posts!!! xoxoxoxo
Congrats girl!! I can definitely relate to all the things you have learned! It is so fun getting to know other bloggers and gaining inspiration everywhere! xoxo
WOOHOO! 100th post, that's awesome!!!
Wooo hoo!!! Happy 100th post g-frand!!! So exciting! The one thing I've loved most about blogging is all the friends I've made as well! 🙂 Now go eat some cake today!

I had no idea your blog was so new– you definitely seem like a blogging veteran 😉 Congratulations on 100 posts!
Congrats, girl! I am so happy that I found you via Mia, Carly and Katie, and I enjoy reading your blog every day. I loved your comment that family members do actually read your blog – my mom even comments every now and then, and I tell her to stop embarrassing me! Ha!
Woohoo!! I laughed at all of these. (hello constant battle to not spend all my money!) Love it! Love reading your blog and being blogging buddies too!
Congrats 🙂 I'd love to learn more about how you use social media to get posts out there and how to balance that with getting over the nervousness that comes along with sharing with your friends and family.
Congrats on this exciting milestone! I'm sure there are many more to come!
Love it – congrats B! I love reading your blog everyday. XO

Woohoo congrats, dear! I hit 210 the other day and I was like… "Wait, I've stuck with something long enough to get over 200??" Keep it up! Love your blog 🙂
