I actually do not deserve this Sunshine Blogger Award at all. I was nominated by two lovely bloggers, Emma of Style Splash and Penny of frugalfashionshopper. So, two! You are popular! No, not at all. But I completely forgot Emma’s nomination and then I got Penny’s and I thought: Oh, dear, now I really have to show my gratitude and answer the questions and pass on this award!
The Sunshine Blogger Award is a fun way to get to know (new) bloggers and to express your appreciation for bloggers. So, my thanks! And my answers!
And my answers for the Sunshine Blogger Award are:
What prompted you to start blogging?
I started blogging when I had to stop working because of my Iung disease.Iworked in the fashion industry and loved my job, so that was a hard ball. Two years after I had to stop I was ready to move on again and started Nancy’s Fashion Style.
Blogging is very time-consuming – how do you manage your time?
It’s very hard, because it is such a passion to blog I often go on and on and then at the end of the day I am way to tired. And that can cause lung infection, so I have to pull the brakes sometimes. But I usually blog in the afternoon and stop at 03.00 pm and in the morning and evening I read and comment on other blogs.
Have you ever considered giving it up?
Never! Of course I have these moments where I think: does anybody read my blog? But at the end of the day I blog in the first place because I love too!
How do you stay motivated?
I don’t need to be motivated. I just love clothing, fashion, to write, to read! And it only gets better because I get to know a lot of bloggers more personal, some in real life! I also participate in a few series. What is better then to collaborate with other bloggers! I just love that.
Do you have specific goals you’d like to achieve?
No, because it is not my job. And most important is to take care of my health. And make time for Gerben, friends and family. But there will always be time for my blog and I always want to get more visitors and more collaborations. That, of course, is a lot of fun but it is not my priority.
I am nominating:
Sonja of BeautySoMe
Sabina of oceanblue style at Manderley
Nicole of High Latitude Style
Rama of Chez Rama
Andrea of Andrea’s Wellness Notes
My questions are:
- How did you come up with your blog name?
- Who is your photographer?
- When do you take your photos and where?
- What is your inspiration?
- What is the funniest thing you experienced with blogging?
The rules for the Sunshine Blogger awards are as following:
- Thank the person who nominated you, and include a link back to their blog.
- Answer the questions given by the person who nominated you.
- Nominate other blogs and give questions for them to answer.
- Notify your nominees through social media or by commenting on their blog.
- List the rules and display a Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post.
Thank you for reading and let’s push the Sunshine Blogger Awards forward!

Thank you very much!
Dank je wel Nancy. Thank you for thinking of me. It is one of the best things about blogging to having met you – virtually at least. And I always admire your stamina, when you leave a comment on my blog on Sundays when I have not even had my first cup of coffee:)
Now I am going to think of some answers – finally I get to answer the question I have always wanted to answer. About my blog’s name….;-)
Hope you will stay as healthy as can be!!! xo Sabina

Dankjewel lieve Sabina! Dat komt omdat ik de mails bij het ontbijt lees, en ik sta meestal vroeg op! Ik kijk uit naar je antwoorden. Hoe gaat het met het Nederlands?
