Lindsay is the blogger behind The Chicago Prep.
Describe your blog:
The Chicago Prep is where fashion, college (soon to be post-grad!) life, and Chicago tourism all mesh together. I’ve fallen in love all over again with the Windy City writing this, and I hope by reading it, you can, too.
What is your favorite post you’ve written or your favorite series/type of post?
I loved writing my finals study tips! I actually took my own advice and it really paid off in the end.
What is something you wish you knew how to do related to blogging?
I’m terrible with Photoshop! I’d love to be able to edit my own photos and make my own graphics.
Why did you start blogging?
It was my way of documenting my cancer diagnosis at age 19. People liked my writing, and the reception I got convinced me to keep going!
What is your favorite social platform?
Probably Tumblr. The beautiful images, songs, and posts I reblog, while not necessarily original, give me motivation to come up with cool new posts and graphics.
What are a few of your favorite Chicago blogs?
Trendy Sparrow – I love her style, and her writing is super-relatable.
Chritiques – I’m a sucker for some good food, and she knows where to get it or how to make it.
Walton and Rush – They make me wish I had a best friend like this! Their closets and tastes are impeccable.
The Golden Girl Blog – I honestly just want to be her when I grow up.
