I'm pretty sure most of you are aware that from the 1st of July 2013 GFC (Google Friends Connect) and Google Reader will no longer be active, if you didn't know uh... SURPRISE! Shame it wasn't a nice surprise eh?
When I found out I was like "Is this a joke?!" but I did a bit of research and found out Google and getting rid of them to encourage users to start using Google +. Well if your listening Google I'd just like to let you know that it is unlikely that people will start using Google + and it is the same reason no one was using it before, Google + is overly complicated and rubbish.
But don't worry as there is an alternative and that is Bloglovin. Ever since I heard Fleure De Force mention Bloglovin in one of her video's I have been using it religiously to read my favourite blogs.
Bloglovin is effectively a site made so that you can follow your favourite blogs and read them with ease, all you have to do is make an account (which is free and easy to do) and follow your favourite blogs. The layout of the site is simple and useful, and they also have a very good app that I use on my Ipod.
If your interested in following me on Bloglovin (if you don't already) you can do that here, also if you are planning to change from GFC to Bloglovin, Bloglovin couldn't have made it any similar as they also have the option to import the blogs you follow on GFC to Bloglovin.
On another note, my favourite magazine Company are now taking nominations for their Style Blogger Awards in association with New Look. I've always loved seeing my favourite bloggers win awards and this year you can nominate me. I know it's a bit cheeky asking you guys to nominate me but hey? If you don't ask, you don't get.
You can nominate me here, here are a few categories you might like to nominate me in -

- Best Personal Style Blog - Newcomer, sponsored by New Look
- Best Fashion Blog - Newcomer
- Best Teen Fashion Blog (under 18)
Though if you don't fancy nominating me you can always nominate one of the blog on my favourite fashion blogs page. I nominated my good friend Izzy from My Wardrobe Wanderings.
Sorry this post has been very word heavy but there were some important things that needed to be said! Who are you nominating for the Company Style Blogger Awards?
