Things I love: Online Friends

I have been an internet addict for years now. And I have many friends who I have become very close with after meeting them online. My friend Wendy and I met on an online fashion forum and we have met up twice now for shopping trips in LA. Courtney, Nicole, Erynn and Kara (that latter two I have met on more then one occasion) are all girls I met online long before any of us had blogs. Chelsea and I first met in person and stayed in contact via out blogs. Another online friend of mine, who serves a a great blog mentor, is J from the Look 4 Less. Even Jen I knew long before her super successful blog and photography site. I have plans to meet Jen this summer and I can't wait! Modest as she, Jen was recently featured in a local magazine and only posted a small blurb about it on her fast moving blog.
But I am so proud of her! It is also the first time my blog url has made it into to print, which was such an AMAZING surprise! Thank you Jen and keep up the hard work. You have come so far this year even with the downfalls you have had to face this year!!
Her feature even made the cover!!
The photog was going for a Catfight on the red carpet look in this picture. Looking good! And if you look closely you can see what blogs Jen shouted out. Thank you jen!

And while we are talking about blog shout outs I just wanted to thank the Charity Fashion Show Website for siting my blog post on their event, on their press page!
Yay for Online Friends turned real friends, blog shout outs and blog giveaways! Have you entered my latest one?
