Upcoming Adventures | September Blog Chat + Announcement

Happy Sunday! September is here, and it’s time to share everything you can expect to see on this blog throughout the month. This is going to be a transitional month here at Adventures in Polishland, and I’m excited to share my Upcoming Adventures with all of you. Let’s chat about all things blog related!

Upcoming Adventures | September Blog Chat + Announcement

First things first, I want to announce that I am taking a planned blog and YouTube vacation for the first few weeks of September. I’m doing well, and I still love blogging, but it’s just time for a little break. For over a year now, I’ve blogged five+ days a week and created two+ YouTube videos a week without any break whatsoever. As you can imagine, that is a lot of hard work and dedication, not to mention hours. I think you can understand why I would like a little time away from the computer. I will most definitely be back, and I expect to return around the last two weeks of September. If that changes, I will notify you via my social media.

In addition, I’ve decided that once I return from my blog vacation I am abandoning my current content schedule. I feel like my current schedule (see HERE if you want more detail) is focusing on quantity rather than quality. Thus, instead of making sure I put out five blog posts in certain categories every week, I’m going to focus on sharing good quality content whenever I have something that is worth sharing. Adventures in Polishland will still be a lifestyle blog with a beauty focus, so the majority of my posts will be about nail polish, makeup, skincare, etc. However, I want to create more lifestyle posts for you, too. I will make sure to update you on what that means when I figure out what my new blogging routine will be!

One change in posts that I can definitely share is that I will not be reviewing books on my blog as much. I love writing book reviews, and I will still be going so. Every book I read will be reviewed on Goodreads, so make sure to follow me HERE to keep up with my reading. I will still be reviewing books on the blog, too, but will focus on newer releases and books for which I have a lot to discuss.

That wraps up everything I want to tell you! I hope you understand why I’m taking some time off, and will stick around for my return later this month. I really do appreciate each and every one of you and the support you have shown to me over the past four years. I’m excited to come back and create better content for you!

Keep up with me while I’m away from the blog on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Upcoming Adventures | March Blog Chat & HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!

Happy Sunday! February is nearly over now, and that means it’s time to share my Upcoming Adventures with all of you. I began my Upcoming Adventures series last month, and just in case you missed it I will link it HERE for you. At the end of every month I will be sharing what you can expect to see on my blog for the month ahead. I am so excited to share my March Blog Chat today, because I have something very exciting to share with you!

Upcoming Adventures | March Blog Chat + Huge Announcement!

As you may know, Adventures in Polishland began as a nail polish blog back in April of 2012. Nail polish was a huge part of my life at the time, and slowly I’ve moved into the world of beauty as a whole. Now I blog about all sorts of things, and my nail polish blog posts have taken a back seat. I really want to make sure that I make nail polish a true staple on this blog again, and I’ve decided that March is the month to do just that. So, I am dubbing March to be Manicure March! What this means is that you will be getting a nail polish review for each and every day of the month. That’s right! I will have 31 blog posts this month, each one reviewing a nail polish from my collection.

I decided to do this because I am currently in the process of decluttering my nail polish stash and reorganizing it as well. I recently went through my entire collection and put aside about 30 polishes that I wanted to swatch and see if I wanted to keep them or declutter them. I thought it would be fun to share each one of those polishes with you! Some of these polishes have been reviewed on the blog in the past, others I’ve never shared with you. But for each polish you will be getting a full review.

I am so excited for Manicure March to begin! You will be seeing some very old and discontinued polishes, drugstore polishes, indie polishes, and everything in between. Along with each blog post I’ve asked you some questions. It’s really interesting to go back and look at old nail polish trends and collections, and also have a discussion about nail polish along the way. There is also an opportunity for you to get involved in addition to commenting on my blog! Just use the hashtag #ManicureMarch on social media! Whether you want to declutter your collection, or simply want to try out your polishes again, I’d love for you to join in the fun!

That wraps up this March blog chat! I hope you are as excited for Manicure March as I am. My regular blog content will resume in April, so if you’re looking for beauty posts, book reviews, and my other lifestyle content, have no fear – it will be back! Please don’t forget to check out my main Instagram account HERE, because I will be sharing nail polish swatches all month long there as well. Here’s to an awesome Manicure March!
