After receiving numerous questions concerning my blog posts, I thought it was about time to share some of my experiences on the job. Job? yes I'd like to refer to my blog as a job. Why? Well, maintaining a blog is a daily job with the support of a crucial planning. Especially around this time of the year when days get shorter and darkness hits the streets early. Timing is key.
So how do I do it? My secret: bring along a camera to every errand you run (pfff those errands again)! Whether going to the supermarket, a fashion event or a random visit to my family there is always a moment to shoot a look. Obviously your companions have to be willing to frame your being, so make sure you love your friends! ;-) Also, make sure you get the most out of your weekend! This is most often the time you find yourself hanging around different areas, with... Different backdrops! That's how I ran into this amazing backdrop (click here) of the Bouwmaat (Dutch hardware store for constructing houses) last weekend.
Final tip: make sure you are always a few steps (days) ahead of your blog, which I am not at the moment, but that's a whole other story! 

So many more tips and tricks to share, but this is a good start!

  2. With me, it's exactly the same as you describe. I organize myself and plan ahead/shoot outfits ahead of time, especially during the weekend. Now it's going to be harder because of the days being shorter, but i got it covered too and took advantage of the last days of sunshine during the last weekends.

    You are looking amazing btw, that coat is just so versatile. I wish I could find one like that. x

  4. I always bring my camera when I travel, and also to work, so my assistant could take some pictures of my outfit of the day (i always manage to have several looks shooted, cause I'm working full time and blogging full time is not always so easy to handle!)

  10. Ik heb geen fashionblog, maar een lifestyle, en heb inderdaad ook ALTIJD een camera (al is het maar een goeie op je telefoon) bij me. Wat ik ook doe is onmiddellijk als ik een brainwave heb die met foto en al in een concept blog zetten. Kost letterlijk 2 minuten en dan heb je altijd iets om snel te kunnen posten.

  12. Super interessant artikel! Mijn enige probleem is alleen dat bijna niemand verstand heeft van goede foto's maken van outfits. Dat is dus wel een probleempje..

  13. I was literally browsing through Bloglovin' looking for advice on blogging, when I saw the title "HOW TO BLOG." I've had mine now for about two years, and I have an amazing vision for it in my head, but i never have the passion to actually pursue this vision.

    I'm moving to France soon, however, so hopefully that'll be the inspirational boost I need!

    Anyway, thanks, and we can all use blogging advice!
