Blogiversary is a word that I never even thought would exist in my vocabulary, but hey, here I am, and here it is.

Today, Karen Ever After turns one! That’s right, guys. I’ve been at the blogging game for one year as of today. And in just one year, I’ve learned so much and made so many new friends. I have to say that I honestly never expected this much happiness and fulfillment to come out of it. There’s something kinda magical that happens when you meet like-minded people who have their own hustle. I’ve had a front row seat this last year and it’s pretty cool, actually.

I started this blog because I wanted something that I could call my own. Something that could inspire other women to look and feel their best, even on the “dress down” days. I’m just a regular chick, who happens to be a mom and a wife, going through the daily grind like the rest of you. We’re all here trying to do our best.

If you don’t already know this about me, I have MS. To be real, it sucks, but I will never let that or anything else stop me from the things I’m passionate about. It was actually my son, who was 6 at the time, who inspired me to start this blog. And now…he’s my little part time photographer…but that’s just between us {wink wink}…

I’ve always been passionate about fashion since I was a little girl, and with Karen Ever After, I made a place where I can express myself however I choose.

The lesson is that it’s never too late for anything…to start a new venture, or follow a dream. If you believe in yourself and work hard, anything is possible. You never know until you take that first step. I’ve met so many great people and made so many new connections and this is just the beginning! I’m so happy that I made the decision to take a leap of faith to start this journey. And I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read, like, comment and just engage with me through my daily moments.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my journey so far, and continue with me as I keep going.

2017, let’s get it!

Hey!!!! It’s my blogiversary (cue music)…blogiversary…it’s my blogiversaryyyyyyyy…time to celebrate!

Thanks so much for taking the time to read the post. I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I’m having such a great time at my first NYFW…such a whirlwind but I loving every minute!
