I almost can’t believe it myself, but No Glitter No Glory has turned one year old today! This year has gone faster than I could have ever imagined, and I’ve enjoyed this little place on the internet that is truly my own. Somehow it has helped me rediscover my love for things I thought I’d never have time for after I graduated university, like geeking out over TV-shows and movies, and it has sparked some passions I never knew I was so fond of, like interior design. It’s really been a pleasure!

Some of you may know that before there was No Glitter No Glory, there was Ella & Louise, a blog that I’m proud to say has won the Weekend Blog Award in the Fashion category not one, but two times in the past two years. Something that felt like a great reward, and I can truly say Marijs and I were surprised both times our name was called.

I’m so honored to be nominated in the Best Newcomer category with No Glitter No Glory (alongside some tough competition including my friend Marijs). I’d be so grateful for your vote, three out of three would be beyond my wildest dreams. You can vote here.
