Tea Talk Tuesday : Ashliegh from the Darling Daily

 
Meet Ashliegh, the amazingly talented blogger behind The Darling Daily! Ashliegh has been an amazing mentor to me throughout my time blogging and I've loved getting to know her more and more through reading her blog and talking every few weeks. She has lots of great tips and is great at answering questions. I'm so glad to have her featured today!

Tell us a little about yourself! 
I'm Ashliegh, the pearl-obsessed, shoe enthusiast, post-grad who runs The Darling Daily! I am an Alpha Phi alumna and live everyday by my personal motto, "High heels, high standards, pearls everyday." I blog about fashion, beauty, and all things lifestyle (personal life, fitness, recipes, DIYS, etc). 

What inspired you to start your own blog and how did you decide on your recent rebranding, The Darling Daily?
The Darling Daily, formerly The Darling Prepster, originally started as a New Year’s resolution to log my everyday outfits but then evolved to include life as a college student and sorority woman on a budget! Since I recently graduated, I no longer felt connected to The Darling Prepster brand and name. I also felt that there were many "prepster" bloggers but my style wasn't solely preppy. I believe the new rebranding fits my style much better!

What's one of the greatest memories of yours that's come from blogging? 
Attending the Her Campus National Conference! I loved meeting so many of my blogging friends and a few blog stars like Carly of College Prepster and Mackenzie of Design Darling

You've gotten to work with some amazing brands. What's been your favorite to work with and what brand would you love to work with in the future? 
I have loved working with Lifeguard Press this summer! They sent me a Kate Spade planner to review and Kate Spade nesting boxes as well! You can find the review here and how I decorated with the boxes here

What agenda are you using for 2014-15? 
Well, I'm not in school anymore but I am using the large Kate Spade Planner in Painterly Cheetah to organize my blog! 

What's one piece of advice you'd give your high school self? College freshman? 
High school self: Don't get caught up in boy drama.
College freshman self: Don't get so involved in too much stuff so quickly. It's overwhelming! Chose your activities wisely!!
  
How would you describe your style? 
Girly with some edge. Glamourous yet girl next door. Trendy yet classic. I like to envision my style as "your best friend's closet that you love to raid." 

What pieces in your closet are you constantly reaching for this summer? 
J.Crew 4" Chino Shorts in the pineapple print and my camel striped maxi skirt have been on the rotation this summer! 

Favorite apps (other than social media!)? 
I don't use any. I don't really use my phone for much other than social media and texting. 

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 
I hope to be starting my own business by then. Hopefully I'll know what that business is in 5 years ;)

What does your dream home look like? Where is it located? 
Location: Georgia
It would be an old plantation house with a wraparound porch and large columns in the front. It would also be white. 

Where can we find you on social media?
