MISSION▪X SUMMARY Lily Klett | SITE: Blog
This year during Mission X, I created a lifestyle blog.
My original plan was to create a fashion/travel blog. I was going to “travel” to different places around the world and review their fashion. My blog isn’t completely about fashion around the world, but it does have a page where I review fashion around the world. Then my blog evolved into a strictly fashion and makeup blog on which I write about my favorite clothes and makeup.
As I was writing my blog, I started to get bored, and I wasn’t excited to write. So I decided to do an interview show. I interviewed my friend Campbell Lindquist. I interviewed her about being in pageants. I finished that video and felt inspired, but I realized that, if I was going to do an interview show, I was going to have to count on other people to reach my goals. I like to be in full control and not have to rely on other people, so I went back to my blog.
As my blog was evolving, I decided to change it to a lifestyle blog so that I could write about a greater variety of subjects. After I changed to a lifestyle blog, I was on a roll.
I made changes to my blog to make it prettier, and that inspired me even more, because I felt like a professional. I realized if I was going to write a real lifestyle blog, I was going to have to let the readers into my life. I wrote an About the Author page to tell my readers about me. I thought they would like my blog more if they liked me as a person.
In my newer blog posts, I tried to have more of a voice. I attempted to walk my talk and and give my readers advice that I actually followed. Another important part of my lifestyle that I hadn’t talked about is that I am a vegetarian. I decided to add a new page to my blog about being a vegetarian. My new page was called The Kind Life. I talked about what it is to live a kind life. I wrote about my life motifs: Eat kind, Eat smart, Eat green, and Eat Vegetarian. And I gave my favorite vegetarian recipes.
