Can you believe it’s 2017 already? This has definitely been a crazy year, but I can’t deny that it’s done wonders for my blog! Chow Down USA has grown more in 2016 than in the prior 3 years combined – not only in the number of followers (now over 32,000 across social media!) and blog traffic, but also in the quality of photography and consistency of posts. Thank you all for following along on this journey, it means more than you know!
In life, and especially the world of blogging, there’s a fine line between finding inspiration and getting discouraged by the pull of perfection (I’m looking at you, social media)! For this reason, it’s so important to keep in mind how far we’ve all come and give ourselves due credit – not only for peace of mind but for the realization of how far we can go. In honor of the past year’s hard work, I’ve compiled a 2016 fashion roundup featuring my favorite outfits and collaborations (including Macy’s, Timex and local shops), starting in January and going through December. Hope you enjoy the roundup and remember you can shop the blog anytime!
