Color Me Styled - Rainy Days


Image via Second Story Creative on Facebook

Well it is just wet here in Chicago today. A lot of flooding, a lot of delays and grey skies as far as the eye can see. If you are lucky enough to be able to stay home today in the Chicago area do so, it is treacherous out there.

Even if you do have to come into the office today (just like me) take a few minutes around your lunch break or towards the end of the day or now, I mean, whenever you want really, to check out the blogs on my blogroll to the left. (keep scrolling)

I've divided it into two sections. First we have the Chicago Gals where I've got 17 of my favorites featured. I've at the very least met all of these ladies and have become pretty close with some of them! In the next couple of months I've got some exciting things planned for guest posts and other funtivities.

Then I've got the list of "Elsewhere" blogs. These are pretty big hitters and are on a lot of blogrolls out there but they are the blogs that inspire me and brighten my inbox, bloglovin' feed, facebook newsfeed and twitter homepage every day. I highly recommend visiting them.

Then at the top of the page right under the Color Me Styled header you'll notice a couple of tabs. First, "The Blog" which should be self explainatory but it is basically an easy way to get back to the homepage and most recent posts.

Next up is the "About Color Me Styled & The Team" here you'll be introduced to the mission of the blog and the Color Me Styled girl. Plus there are quick bios of our editors (a list which I will have a couple of additions soon).

Finally we have "The Shop" which is a place for you to brouse and buy some of the items I've been eyeing (and buying) lately. It changes at least once a week so continue to check back, pin and tweet your favorites and treat yo self!

Stay dry! Stay safe! And happy Thursday!

Color Me Cultured - RIP Google Reader


Show us your love! Follow Color Me Styled on Bloglovin
As a blogger I am a member of an amazing community of people and I do everything I can to support other bloggers... karma and all. One of the ways I was keeping up with the many blogs I admire is with Google Reader.

Until Google put Reader on the chopping block.

Luckily Bloglovin' exists! It is a site that pulls all the blogs you currently follow on Reader onto one easy to use and visually appealing dashboard. Every post is pulled to your page and you can even sign up for email updates.

You can group your blogs too. Right now mine are all in an alphabetical list but I might do a Chicago Blogger Network group, a design group and a style group. These are the big categories most of my blogs fall into. 

You can follow both Color Me Styled and Daily E on Bloglovin' and my RSS icon
has been replaced with a big ole plus sign. Let's take a moment to remember Google Reader but not too long... you don't wanna miss a post on Bloglovin'!
