Shannyn is the blogger behind Frugal Beautiful.
Describe your blog:
An aspirational living blog that focus on helping women be able to afford the life they want- finance, travel, fashion & fitness!
What is your favorite post you’ve written or your favorite series/type of post?
I’ve written a few posts I was really worried about, but the outpouring of support has made such a difference! Last year, I called off my engagement after a long series of posts about wedding planning, saving money and the venue choices for the big day- so it was really hard to come back to the blog and admit I’d called it off. The support really made me grateful for blogging!
What is something you wish you knew how to do related to blogging?
I wish I knew how some bloggers always look so put together and have such shiny Instagram feeds! How do they do it? I’m proud when I get one outfit a week that looks Insta-worthy, much less everyday!
When did you start blogging?
2011
What is your favorite social platform?
Pinterest! I do social media for a living and it by far performs the best and really helps users build community..after that, it’d be Instagram!
What are a few of your favorite Chicago blogs?
Corals and Cognacs, Tamiomalley, Champagne and Chambray, and so many more!
