Be prepared for a long-ass comment.<br /><br />1.) What is your style or look? I think I tend to dress fairly classic and comfortable as well. I like both feminine and masculine pieces, lots of neutrals, lace and stripes, a-line skirts and dresses, and flats/boots instead of heels. I try to dress what feels comfortable on my body and what flatters my shape.<br /><br />2.) Where do you find yourself shopping the most? For sure, Old Navy, Target, and Goodwill. I have a dinky budget and since I like to switch things up in my closet a lot, I don't love spending a ton on what I buy. I'm starting to feel a little bit of a shift, though, and I'd like to start getting some slightly higher-quality pieces.<br /><br />3.) Greatest fashion tip you want to share with the blogosphere? Plan ahead! I always plan my outfits a week in advance (with some options for changes in my daily plans or the weather), and it helps so much! I never stand in front of my closet for an hour in the morning feeling like I have nothing to wear anymore. It's liberating!<br /><br />4.) Tea or coffee? I'm a huuuge chai tea and iced tea fan. LOVE IT. I'm with Danielle: coffee = acid reflux to me. Plus, my body hates caffeine.<br /><br />5.) If you had to meet one person who had died again who would it be? Tough question! I wish I could have met my dad's grandma. My family tells lots of stories about her, and she sounds like the most wonderful, delightful, resilient person.<br /> <br />6.) What article of clothing do you love the most? Oh goodness...I'm going to be kind of boring and say my white swiss dot henley/popover! It's such a perfect piece to wear on its own, to layer with, to accessorize, etc.<br /> <br />7.) What is your faith background? I grew up in the ELCA Lutheran church, but I currently don't practice/believe in anything. I'm really interested in learning about other religions (I even minored in Religion in college), though, and I enjoy talking to other people about their journeys. I do still go to church with my family sometimes, mostly to sing on the worship team and see friends (my family has been extremely connected in the church I grew up at). I just really enjoy the community and music aspect of the church I grew up at :)<br /><br />8.) What do you like to do when you aren't blogging? I love playing games, wrestling with my dogs, watching Netflix with Kevin (we're fluctuating between An Idiot Abroad and Parks & Recreation right now), sing, and hang out with my girlfriends.<br /><br />9.) Do you have a favorite outfit memory? Yes! I remember what I was wearing both the first time Kevin and I smooched (a green ruffley t-shirt dress- it's way cuter than it sounds), and the first time we saw a movie together, when we were just friends (a brown lacey dress). He doesn't remember the green dress, but he will never forget the brown lacey one. For years, he couldn't stop talking about how I wore it when we went to see The Dark Knight and how he loved how my legs looked in it, hahaha. Boys.<br /><br />10.) Why did you start your blog? I had read blogs obsessively for 2-3 years, and was always curious about what it would be like. I also was always bummed that there weren't many bloggers out there that looked like me (aka thicker), and I wanted to contribute a body type that isn't super represented in the blog world. <br /><br />11.) Which season is your favorite for fashion and beauty purposes? Fall for sure - I like the mild temperatures, the fact that I can layer comfortably, and my skin hasn't gotten super dry yet. My freckles are still out from the summer, and my hair has usually been lightened nicely by the sun. I like the temperatures and layering factor in spring, but I dislike how things are all slushy and gross in spring - I'm desperate for flats in the spring, but usually it's too wet for flats :(<br /><br />LONGEST COMMENT EVER.Brynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15793008765703664289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486919973260130769.post-60598173383616052432014-03-03T17:28:35.896-08:002014-03-03T17:28:35.896-08:00Thank you for your responses.They were fun to read...Thank you for your responses.They were fun to read.

I chose a small college too, and have always been about having a small group of close friends over a large group of acquaintances, so having a small blog is perfect for me =) Also, woot!

I have done this several times. I agree with you, sometimes it is better being a smaller blog, because of the more personal relationships you create with other (few) bloggers.<br /><br />I absolutely love Earl Gray. I would choose Tea over Coffee too (usually and before having my daughter). But now a lot of times I choose coffee cause I need something strongfor my lack of sleep and to keep up with her cause she is the energizer bunny - bless her heart. =)Elegance and Mommyhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17818930574734628758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486919973260130769.post-37374693818052662432014-03-03T11:05:55.020-08:002014-03-03T11:05:55.020-08:00This is the first time you've been nominated??...This is the first time you've been nominated?? Someone nominated me a few months ago but I couldn't find 10 new bloggers who hadn't already been nominated. I thought for SURE you'd have already answered the questions. I had answered all the questions but stopped when I couldn't find 10 unnominated people. I loved reading your answers!<br /><br />Earl grey was my favorite tea for many years but now I'm an English Breakfast kind of girl. Either that, or my favorite Rooibos Chai from Teavana. Yum!<br /><br />I can't get into House of Cards. We started watching a few episodes and just didn't get sucked in. Maybe we should try again?<br /><br />I find the story of how you and Jeff met hilarious. I just can't picture you in a club or dancing on stage. Now that you're a teacher, I bet your worst fear would be the same situation occurring but just when you're getting into it you hear, "Mrs Wo.?"<br />Lauren @ Exploring My Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420136465508597451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486919973260130769.post-8924958338714688222014-03-03T10:13:00.848-08:002014-03-03T10:13:00.848-08:00It was so fun to read your answers to these questi...It was so fun to read your answers to these questions!
