Blogging //

How did you come up with your blog name?

It's kind of funny, because I didn't come up with it! It was something that I was called in my business classes, I loved it, and it's become my brand!

When & why did you start your blog?

I started my blog in the summer of 2014 just a month before Chris and I started dating! A Classy Fashionista came to life, because my friends from college and in my hometown would always be asking me the same style and beauty questions, so instead of repeating myself a million times, I decided to start a blog that answered their questions! As the months flew by and now years, it's something that I love and will always love to do!

How do you get paid to blog?

I get paid through various blogging networks and also directly from brands that I have reached out to or that have reached out to me for collaboration. I share more about this in this blog post.

Are your sponsored posts genuine?

YES--110%. I would never recommend a product or service on my blog unless I truly love and use it myself. I do my best to create my sponsored posts to flow in a way that doesn't come across as sponsored, because I truly do love the products & services I chat about on ACF, and I want to share them with you!

Who takes your photos?

If I'm not in the picture, I've taken it! So, I take all flat lays and product photos. If I'm in the picture, my amazing blogger hubby takes them for me!
