Friends I’ve made at Blissdom…

by Julia on February 6, 2010 · 8 comments

I just wanted to give you a few blogs to click around through today.  These are AMAZING and talented women.  The best part of being at Blissdom has been being able to meet women who do what I do and who juggle the same daily tasks.  We get each other, and hopefully you’ll find a way to connect with these women too. 

I’m very excited to bring you the following Frugal/Money Saving Bloggers – I’ve met these women this weekend and will be working with them even more in the future! 

Claire blogs over at Saving Money Plan and is a LOCAL Bay Area blogger, who knew?! 

Kaley blogs over at Cha Ching on a Shoe String, we’ve worked together in the past and it was so nice to put a face with her blog. 

Alyssa blogs over at Kingdom First Mom, she is the sweetest lady I’ve ever met.  Her sweet little baby feel asleep in my arms last night at the Savvy Blogging dinner.

Last night on my way over to dinner, as I sat on the bus a bit insecure thinking I was under-dressed and just wishing I had something “nice” to wear – Jennifer from Balancing Beauty and Bedlam sat next to me and we began to chat.  She shared a bit about her site (which I LOVE) and she told me about her Frugal Fashionista feature which is all about thrift store fashion finds and immediately I was relaxed.  I was so excited to share with her was that my entire outfit was from a thrift store!  She loved it and made me feel completely comfortable.  Thank you Jennifer!

I think it’s great you got the outfit at a thrift store. All the frugal bloggers should be taking tips from you! You should share a pic. :-)

I just found your website last night on the Blissdom twitter, I think.
You did a great job on all your videos.

What a great idea, I think all bloggers should follow your lead.

I’m still in shock both you can Jen got your cute outfits at a thrift store! I’m fashionably challenged. Guess I’ll actually have to hit the Goodwill for once. It’s within walking distance of my house almost! I only go in there when I’m searching for something for Halloween.

You looked adorable at Savvy Blogging! Loved the purse.

Aw thanks Beth! I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised, just make sure you go with enough time to search around. It really is fun and rewarding! The jacket I was wearing was Ann Taylor and it only cost $5!
