Hi everyone, today I'm going to share with you my top five favorite blogs that I read from time to time. To tell the truth, it was a very difficult task to choose only five blogs, especially because some of the bloggers have stopped posting their content regularly, and I really wanted you to check them out. But, despite that, I still come back to these resources for some inspiration, and that's why I included them in my today's blog post.

Why Do I Love Reading Blogs?

But why do we actually read blogs? People love to feel the personal, genuine connection to the authors in addition to connecting with a small, but honest community. Unlike many other traditional media, bloggers are usually written and managed by a s single person who does all the work by themselves. Can you believe that a blogger is a writer, editor, social media manager, photographer, photo retoucher and so much more! Through regular format blogs and microblogs, authors express their thoughts, experiences, and opinions on various topics like they are having a one-on-one conversation with a friend. 

Moreover, bloggers all over the world often cover a wide range of topics, from personal interests to professional expertise. For example, I love to write and read about beauty and fashion. Blogs have something for everyone, allowing readers to discover new passions and learn from others' experiences.

Top 5 Favorite Blogs to Read

So, now for everyone who is tired of the same old read, so simply trying to discover something new, fresh, and engaging can join me as I dive into my favorite online destinations – these blogs have become my go-to sources for inspiration, knowledge, and a whole lot of fun.

#1. Raspberry Kiss
http://www.raspberrykiss.co.uk/

Shannon is the girl behind the terrific blog Raspberrykiss. I love the way she reviews makeup, skincare products, and jewelry pieces. Every time I need a dose of blogging inspiration I reach out to Raspberry Kiss. Even though we don't know each other, she is one of my secret blogging buddies and I have learned so much by reading her blog posts.

#2. Rosychicc
http://rc-pinkpot.blogspot.com/

Andrea and her blog Rosychicc was one of the first blogs I've started to follow and read. Ever since I started blogging I always needed a nice blogging example, so I can improve my very own blog. She was always inspiring me with her reviews and hauls. Andrea is the reason why I started this 30 Days Blogger Challenge, but if she finished it many years ago, I only started it this year. It is a shame Rosychicc rarely updates, but I still have hope for new interesting content.

#3. xSparkage

Leesha is the first makeup guru I subscribed to on YouTube, and only later did I discover her blog. She is one of the old-school beauty gurus with a vast amount of experience in the field. I still love her videos and blog posts, and I think she deserves more recognition. If you need detailed reviews with good swatches and a professional perspective on popular makeup products, you should definitely check out the xSparkage blog and her YouTube channel. Additionally,  she posts various life and lifestyle content on her blog and vlog channel.

#5. Eat My Knee Socks

Unfortunately, Michelle stopped updating her blog about a year ago, but I still come back to check out her older blog posts. She has the cutest fashion style ever and I admire the way she combines her outfits. I hope this year muse will visit her once again and her fans and I will see many new blog posts at Eat My Knee Socks.

#5. Couture Girl
http://www.couture-girl.co.uk/

I remember the Couture Girl blog since 2014 when the design and content of this blog were a little bit different. Now, Kayleigh Johnson is a very famous blogger and her blog posts are so interesting and professionally written that even such big publishers as Vogue, GQ, and Harper's Bazaar can be jealous of her popularity and audience.

Summarizing...

Of course, there are so many different bloggers I love reading daily, and most of these lovely bloggers deserve a bigger audience. Please let me know what your favorite bloggers are. I want to check out their corners and learn something new. Do you think blogging is still a good and fresh idea or is blogging dead?

Lots of love,
Liz
