Holiday Gift Guides 2017: Gifts Bloggers Want.

     It's time to continue this year's holiday gift guide series today! I'm really excited about this one. It's kind of a refreshed version of a blog post of gift ideas for bloggers that I actually shared back in 2015! Since a big part of blogging is the community aspect and making friends with other bloggers, I thought this would be a fun gift guide to reprise for this holiday season. These would be fun ideas for your blogger bestie (or if you're not a blogger yourself but you are interested in starting a blog and want to treat yourself!!).

       I am such a sucker for cute mugs. It recently dawned on me that despite blogging for 5+ years now, I still don't own any mugs related to blogging! I think that both of these are so fun, and would be the perfect gift for any type of blogger (especially since they're not specific to just fashion blogging). There are tons and tons of blogging related mug options that you can find online, these were just two specifically that I thought were fun! 


     I am a firm believer that all bloggers should have business cards. Honestly I probably don't hand mine out nearly as much as I should!! One Christmas gift that I received a couple years ago which I love is the cutest little business card holder (I have it on my desk here at the station now so that I can keep my blog business cards handy at work). I think this adorable Kate Spade business card holder would be such a fun gift for a blogger bestie, especially someone newer to blogging!


       If you or your blogger bestie do your photographer yourself with a DSLR camera, having a 50mm lens is SO helpful for fashion blogging! This is the type of camera lens which makes it easier to achieve the blurred out background that lots of bloggers use in their images. Just the lens itself usually isn't too pricy- at least not for some basic models of Canon DSLRs! 



  
      Today's post is a little bit shorter and sweeter I know, but I am heading into a busy weekend. I am working Saturday as usual, and having dinner Saturday night with my sweet friend Rebecca from the blog Caravan Sonnet, who will be in the Burlington area that day! Sunday afternoon at my church I have a hospitality ministry opportunity to help make food for, and I always enjoy helping with things like that. This weekend should be a fun way to welcome in the holiday season!








      God Bless,

  2. I love the #OOTD shirt! That's so funny. I have a mug that says "Messy bun and getting stuff done," which sooort of counts as a blogging mug (in spirit).
