To Pin or Not to Pin







borrowed necklace, Gap trench, old (v.old) belt, Target stripey dress and zipper boots.


If you follow me on Pinterest, you'll have noticed that I have become extremely conceited and pinned about a billion (18) photos of...myself.

Yes, I gave in and started a Pinterest board for this blog.

I say gave in because until this week, I was the staunchest of staunch supporters for the "no self advertisement" party of Pinterest.

I felt like it was cocky and conceited for me to pin pictures of myself. If other people did it, that was fine, but for me it was WRONG-OH.

But then I started thinking about it a little more, and I saw how silly that was. I post pictures of myself here and I don't feel conceited about it. Why would I suddenly be snoot-city if I posted images on Pinterest?

I also realized that it was a great way to curate all of my RF (Rambling Fancy) images into one place! So the RF board was born. You can follow here. You know...if you want..or whatever...but you don't have to....I won't mind...or whatever... ;)

 BY THE WAY

Did you know you can search for all images pinned from your blog? Just use the URL:

pinterest.com/source/YOUR BLOG URL.com

So mine is www.pinterest.com/source/kaleighhamilton.blogspot.com

And VOILA! Any image that has been pinned from your blog.
