I once read one of those blog posts that listed blogging rules for newbies, blog etiquette if you will, and while most I agreed with-linking back, plagiarism sucks, give props where props are due, etc…one faux pas was “do not announce when you’ve hit 100 posts. Or 200. Or 300.
Nobody cares.”
Well. Lucky for me I am a natural born rule breaker…
It’s my 200th post, and I CARE. I’m even “announcing it” right here. Right now. Ohhh bloggy police, come get me. I’m pretty sure you don’t want to mess with this Latina fury though.
{Where the blogging happens…maybe a lil to the left, to the left.}
I can’t think of anything I’ve made a conscious decision to do 200 times that I don’t have to. Besides fashion, when pressed, I don’t really have any “hobbies.” There are tons of things I LOVE to do…but not over and over, every day. Is drinking sangria and texting a hobby? Especially when done simultaneously? Because I kinda excel at that, srsly, but I digress. I used to dance, but once you hit your twenties that kind of ends, unless you embark upon career that involves a pole and 8 inch Lucite heels. (No judgement. I’m just sayin.)
In 200 posts, I have built something that I’m proud of. Something that is as much a part of me as my right arm. 200 times I have sat down and wanted to share a part of myself with you, the good, bad and the ugly. Fashion, hair, anxiety, eyeliner, heartbreak. And more than 2,000 times I have sat down and read your blogs, because you were brave enough to share a part of yourself with me.
In 200 posts, I’ve made friendships that blow my mind. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting some of you face to face, some of us have plans, and some of you I MIGHT never meet…and that’s ok KEL because you send me Unbeweavable shit like this at 12am.
{OMG. I die. Unbeweavable!}
In 200 posts, my life has been touched by each and everyone of you, real life or virtually, 2D or 3D.
Thank you, Dollfaces. I’m so blessed you’re here. Things are only getting bigger and better, and I can’t imagine it without each and everyone of you.

Have a Lovely Weekend.
XOXO,
Liz
P.S. The Perricone Winner will be announced on Monday, so you still have the weekend to enter! yay!

Congrats on your 200th post! that's quite an achievement. And ballyhoo on those who say no one cares b/c obviously we do. otherwise we wouldn't be reading.

keep up the wicked sense of humour, the honesty, and sharing a piece of your life here. have a happy friday!

2 my so called fab kelly October 22, 2009 at 9:58 pm

oh DUDE how dare you show my mug on your le blog blowing up my cover!!! now everyone knows im really a brunette! xoxoxo (i F'in love that photo)

so seriously, you know what bitch – I FUCKING CARE and thats all that matters!! oh and of course the fact that some other bessties (hi platano) care also!

ok so its crazy when you think about 200th post…200 days out of the year you've been sharing your ups and downs, laughs, tears, fashion, your fabulousness….so awesome if you really think about it.

so i loves you mama!! even if we'll never meet of we've already met….i'm blessed to have a friend like you ( i know sappy i gotta go i'm ruining my fuck all attitude)

3 The Haute-Shopper October 23, 2009 at 12:27 am

First off… do people seriously think that announcing blog milestones is a no-no? Because I've seen it on numerous blogs (incl. mine haha) and I've always thought it was worth mentioning. So screw them and a HUGE congrats on posting 200 times! Here's to 200 more!

Oh, and I know what you mean about hobbies such as dancing. I kinda realized I was getting old when I was standing in a club with a friend thinking "jeez, I could be sipping this magherita at home while watching Gossip Girl, instead of paying 10 EUR for a drink and being hit on by douchebags" ;-) Hope you have a fab weekend!

4 ifmusicbe October 23, 2009 at 12:44 am

I really adore you, and appreciate you so much – you're always there with a kind word, or something to make me laugh. Love you, girl!

42 Allison October 23, 2009 at 8:34 am

I've enjoyed reading about you, Liz!
Blogs tell so much about people, and it's great to have a place to go to let it all out. I need to get back to blogging more.

50 lisa October 23, 2009 at 10:17 am

Congrats! That rule seems silly imo. You've put so much time and energy into your blog, why not celebrate these important milestones? My problem is I tend to just forget them. I checked my post count the other day and realized I now have just over 600 posts.

51 Kimi October 23, 2009 at 10:36 am

Stopping by from Bon Bon. Congrats on your two hundreth post. Seriously drinking and texting could make for some pretty awesome texts. I would definitely call it a talent if you can do it without mishap.

I hope you have a rocking weekend!

I missed you and your blog, lady!!! I hope you guys are all better now – mom included. Have an amazing weekend, babe! xxxx

p.s. I read your previous posts and I cannot wait to see your hair! And about your anxiety, I'm so sorry hon. I have dear, dear friends that suffer from it too and I know how bad it can get. I get panic attacks every so often in the car and the only way I can describe it is that I feel like I'm about to die. I can't have anyone talk to me or touch me – it makes me feel even worse. Don't be so hard on yourself hon, it's just a part of you. Remember that no matter how bad it seems, you will ALWAYS get through it. Love you, lady!

67 Gabby October 23, 2009 at 1:35 pm
