Delve Into Me: A Close Look at the Bloggers You Love (010)

PLEASE INTRODUCE YOURSELF, AND TELL US A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT YOU AND YOUR BLOG.

Hi everyone! My name is Kaci Jade Stevens, my blog is called Kaci Jade purely because of the fact it is my middle name and everyone seems to love it! My blog is based around beauty, fashion and lifestyle but I like to throw in the odd skincare or review post too.

WHEN DID YOU START YOUR BLOGGING JOURNEY AND WHY?

I actually started my blogging journey on the 28th of September 2014 last year when I had absolutely no clue what I was doing, you could probably picture how well that one turned out, and I only recently decided to refresh my blog and give it a new name, look and feel. I took up blogging as I am a talker, that's a given, and especially when it comes to beauty related topics I just will not stop talking, blogging is a place where I can go on and on and anyone can read the content I write, if they want to, and hopefully enjoy it. To me, that's what makes my whole blogging experience worth while.

WHAT'S THE MOST CHALLENGING ASPECT OF BLOGGING FOR YOU?

Posting regularly. That is definitely a challenge for me without a doubt. It's not the fact that I don't want to and I feel like I have to, I don't, I love blogging and I would choose it over any social media I have. It's that it requires time to get it right and that is valid time in a day I don't have right now with school, trampoline and what not. I am a perfectionist so I have to check my posts again and again and make sure the photos aren't fuzzy so on and so forth, I couldn't just upload a blog post in half an hour.

DO YOU HAVE ANY BLOGGING RITUALS (LIKE FOLLOWING A STRICT SCHEDULE OR MAKING SURE TO PROCRASTINATE BY GOING ON PINTEREST FIRST, ETC.)?

I don't actually think I do! I come up with posts by myself or reading someone else's blog and things on the internet, I wouldn't say I have a schedule other than posting regularly, at least. Pinterest and tumblr is also such a great place to get my inspiration.

WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER ONE BLOGGING TIP?

Make sure you are having fun. I'm sure most people that choose to start a blog and take that leap out there into the Internet are willing to commit and have fun with their blog, but it is so so so important that you enjoy what you are writing and talking about. If you aren't, then what are you doing it for?

BESIDES BLOGGING, WHAT OTHER HOBBIES TO YOU ENJOY PARTICIPATING IN? WHICH ARE YOU MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT?

I love trampoline as I have already mentioned. I have done the sport since I was 4 (almost ten years!) and I am still loving every minute of it. I also love:

• Photography
• Art
• Socialising
• The Internet in general
• Makeup
• Fashion / Shopping
• Obviously blogging
• Reading & Discovering blogs
• YouTube

(DUE TO THE TITLE OF MY BLOG, I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD ASK:) DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU KNOW YOURSELF?

Personally, this could either sound strange or not, but I don't feel like I know myself, yet. I feel I haven't found the true inner me and really realised as a person who I am and what I love. I have found out a lot about myself, obviously, but as the time goes on I am finding out more every second just by someone asking a simple question. I just don't know if what I think about myself is entirely true, some of you might understand, which is why I can't say I know my self, fully.

So this is where I'm at.

Hi friend. How are you? I hope this post meets you well. Today I wanted to write about this little space. My corner of the Internet. After many attempts to give it a major face lift / rebrand / vibe / mission I figured out that the girl I was in 2012 when I originally started this blog is no longer who I am. So let's start fresh. Hi, I'm Rosie. I am a college student and a creator of many crafts. I enjoy writing Young Adult fiction, playing piano, singing at the top of my lungs, and, above all, making other people laugh. Right now I am pursuing a degree in art therapy, which means my future job will be helping people express themselves in a safe environment with someone who loves them. I have tried to be many things on the Internet, from an American Girl doll hoarder to a make-up artist, but nothing has really clicked with me. Not until now. I have always been a Christian. My entire life I have identified as being a follower of Jesus Christ. But the thing ab...

Room Tour 2019

I've always wanted to do one of these posts. If not for the enjoyment of others, for the enjoyment of my future self to look back on and realize how much my style and space have changed. My door. I think I'm sooo artsy for taping paint swatches to my door. And I actually love how it looks too. I was going for "Starry Night" with my own little twist -- and without the actual paint. ;) This is what my room looks like from the doorway. Can you guess what the theme is? It's funny -- a few weeks ago I was discussing with Kenzie how my room has this coral and aquamarine vibe to it, yet my Instagram theme is focused on yellows and blues, and my actual fashion style is very grungy/hispter/artsy. So it all comes full circle, I guess? Still, I love my room. It's my safe haven. Now come on in so I can give you the full tour... Right as you walk in, you will see my DIY jewelry hanging on the wall to your right. It's quite a balancing act when I ...

What I Want To Be vs. What I Am Not

This is an exercise that popped into my head while I was trying to work on my last project of the Fall semester. I thought I should share it with you because it was really helpful to me see these all these things that I've wanted (and most I've never reached) and compare them to what I now know about myself. What I’ve wanted to be What I am not A popular beauty guru on YouTube An Instagram star with millions of followers A solo pop star with a raspy but also epic voice that even Sia could be jealous of I am not someone who wants to spend HOURS doing my make-up I am not someone who wants to dedicate their time to a social media site -- I desire connection, but not at a surface level where there are only likes and comments like "QT" I am not the most amazing singer, nor am I built for the stage or even willing to subject myself to such a stressful lifestyle. I could go on, but you get the point. Sometimes the ideas in our brains don'...
