I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to be a blogger recently and particularly about the expectations around blogging. Sometimes I end up feeling a lot of guilt about blogging and it’s taking a long time to realise that there is a lot that I don’t actually need to say sorry for. So, this is my public declaration that I won’t apologise for these things and they don’t make me (or anyone else) a bad blogger.
- Reusing photos
- Using my iPhone for photos
- Not having the fanciest camera (or even one that works at the moment)
- Not posting every day
- Not posting according to a fixed schedule
- Missing a post
- Taking a break and missing quite a few posts
- Going out for dinner and not blogging about it
- Hanging out with friends or family without trying to make content from it
- Not reading as much as I used to
- Not being caught up with the latest trends
- …or the latest releases
- Turning off my blogging head during the work week
- Only posting on social media on the weekend (because I turn off my blogging head during the work week)
- Prioritising real life over online life
- Not having frequent hauls
- Eating cereal rather that a fancy breakfast
- Choosing to remain at home, even if that means you don’t have blog content
- Not having an ‘Instagrammable’ home as a background
- Seeing blogging as a hobby rather than a business I need to hustle at
And, with that, I hereby pledge to stop the ‘bad’ blogger guilt! Will you join me?

Hello. Yes. I love this.
Yessss this is perfect
I’m going to stop feeling guilty about not making everything about blogging. I don’t really need to blog about the mediocre meal I had at a restaurant xD
