p.s. only two more days until my pop up show! 

Guest Post Blogger - Kathy

Hello Hattitude Style Blog readers! Guest blogger Kathy here from My Peach Days blog. Hattie kindly invited me to do a guest post in her blog a few weeks ago but have just gotten around to taking the photos I'd use for it, so here I am. I hope everything's still intact by the time I leave Hattie's blog. I'm a klutz, i fear, virtual or otherwise. :)

Anyway, I thought I'd share something about myself. I'm from La Union, one of the northern provinces in the Philippines known for its agricultural lands and fishing and farming industry. I live just across the beach, which is great during the summer season and generally sunny days but not when there are strong typhoons and earthquakes.

I started blogging way back 2004 but have gotten into personal style blogging late 2009. I drifted from one personal style blog to another until I decided to put up My Peach Days, my permanent virtual style blogging place (I hope!).

I usually gravitate towards romantic, vintage-style clothes and accessories although there are some days when I am in the mood for edgier styles. I also like Asian style fashion (oversized tops, big hair buns) particularly on my lazy days. I get most of my clothes from thrift shops which really saves me a lot of money and gets me the clothes I really want. In fact, I am an advocate of thrift shopping. haha!

Aside from fashion, you'd usually catch me going on and on about TV series, Asian dramas, anime and books. I'm currently in the process of collecting George R.R. Martin books.

So there. Hope you didn't get bored. If you ever want to read more of my posts, simply hop on to My Peach Days blog. You can see my blog button on Hattie's blog sidebar. ^__^

Thanks Hattie for letting me introduce myself to your blog readers and thank you dear readers for your time! 

Much love, 

Kathy <3

Guest Post Blogger: Ana

Hello Hattitude readers! My name is Ana from the lovely little blog AnaCloud! I am so thrilled to be writing a guest post for Hattie.  I hope you all enjoy.

Where should I even start? There seems to be so much to write but it is hard to get it all out! I guess I shall tell you where I am from.  I am a girl living under the sunny blue skies in the suburbs just North of Los Angeles in Southern California.  I have been a California girl my whole life and I don't know if I could ever leave! Living on the West Coast has made me lucky enough to have fashion in my life for a long time.  It is one of my greatest joys in life; waking up and deciding what in the world am I going to adorn myself in! And that is why I have created my blog AnaCloud.  It is a lovely way for me to share with you all of the ideas I come up with from my closet.

Here is a little bit more fun stuff about me.  I can't start the day without my coffee fix; sometimes I'm afraid I'm killing myself with the amount of coffee I drink! I have two adorable puppies (well they are about 2 years old, that's still puppy age right? ;) ) that we adopted.  

I love art history and just art in general. I sometimes fantasize about living in museums. I'm also very thankful that I live so close to LA and so many extraordinary museums!  

I also do a lot of my own artwork.  It is hard right now though, because I am so busy with school and blogging! But you can visit my Etsy to order your own personal piece that I will create for you!  

I also love thrifting and finding diamonds in the ruff! It is so thrilling to find a piece with so much history and to be able to revive the piece! That is why I have started my own little online vintage shop called AnaCloud Vintage! I'm sure you'll find something you like! You can actually buy this fantastic little black dress that I'm wearing at my shop! 

Well I guess this is goodbye.. for now! Don't be afraid to come on over to my blog and say hello! I absolutely love hearing from my readers! Hope you had as much fun reading this post as I did writing it!

Love, Ana
