November Round Up

Sorry, I'm so late with the round-up this month, I was away gallivanting at the end of last week so was away from my computer. We've had so many amazing posts shared on our Facebook this month, it's soo tough narrowing it down to only 10. Go and look through our Facebook to check out the rest of November's posts there's some seriously good stuff there.

Blogmas/Vlogmas

It's that time of year again when we all start to think about Christmas and some of you are even taking part in Blogmas/Vlogmas. Blogmas/Vlogmas is when bloggers post or vlog every day in the run-up to Christmas. Trust me this isn't as easy as it sounds. I sit around the house all day and struggle to get 5 posts up a week so have so much respect for anyone who can post daily whilst working a full-time job. 

I've had a look and found a few Edinburgh Bloggers taking part this year.

• Ellie Logan - http://www.desperatelyseekinglifestyle.com/
• Talor Gilchrist - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKjpxB5LZl9B4-b1bIwsFpg
• Joanne Kilday (Fashion Polaroids) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuVDVUqGnVIdvzzORms9NoA
• Louise Brown (The Little Things) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYhUBVBdoImgXz6CDckiwPw

The team at Edinburgh Bloggers want to know who's doing Blogmas/Vlogmas so we can get behind you and share your posts/vlogs. Please comment below or tweet us (@EdinburghBlogg) to get added to the list

Congratulations

Before I go I wanted to say massive congratulations to Ruth from Urbanity Blog for winning Scottish Blogger of the Year at last month's Herald Fashion Awards. 

And to everyone else remember that awards are nice but blogging is about so much more than that and you all have amazing blogs which you should be proud of (trust me I read through all your posts every month).

Hope everyone has a great December
