According to Alyssa

     Hooray!  I've officially reached 500 blog followers and could not be more excited!  To commemorate this personal milestone, I have decided to do a giveaway!  Deanna of La Clé Jewelry was nice enough to team up with me to offer you the chance to win one of their gorgeous key necklaces!  Each key is dipped in a different color paint to represent a unique personal quality.  You are meant to embrace your key's meaning and stay positive each day as the paint continues to wear off.  Once it has, you can post a picture of your key using the hashtag #NakedKey and La Clé will make a donation in your honor to the charity of your choice!  Pretty cool right?  Now all you have to do is win!  And that couldn't be easier.

     All you have to do is follow me, check out the list, and leave a comment below telling me which color you'd choose and why!  I'll pick a winner at random on May 26th (one week from today) and I'll be in touch so that your key of choice can be sent to you!

     If you aren't chosen however, La Clé just launched a referral program where you can earn a free key by spreading the word to your friends!  Check it out here!


     Want to earn a few extra entries?  Follow me and La Clé on Instagram for two extras! (One for each follow!)  And tag a friend below for a third extra!  If you choose to do this, please leave your Instagram handle in the comments as well!

Best of luck!  And stay tuned for more giveaways in the future!

P.S. I'm Baby Blue ;)

     Good morning! I've just woken up and thought I would write a little post.  (I really need to get myself on a regular blogging timeline!  What do you think is the best/easiest schedule to keep?  I've got a lot of exciting things coming up in the next few months, so I'd like to keep on it!). 

   
     Ever since my freshman year of college in 2011 (Yikes! Has it really been four years?!), I've toyed with the idea of creating a YouTube channel.  I find the idea of vlogging as well as creating fun sit-down videos to be extremely exciting, however the thought of actually planting myself in front of a camera and speaking openly on any subject seems absolutely terrifying (which is probably why I haven't actually jumped into it yet).  But I think that this is the year I may actually do it.  I've got a lot of exciting things happening in my life in the upcoming months, including moving to a new apartment with my boyfriend, flying across the country to adventure in Oregon, and starting an internship at a fashion magazine and I'd love to be able to document these occurrences and share them with people who may have similar interests.

     That being said, I am officially reaching out to any and all YouTubers for advice, tips, tricks, and just general thoughts on the YouTube community as well as my want to be a part of it!  I'd love to hear about your experiences and hopefully gain some new friends in the process!
