Recently I have been struggling with blogging regularly. Over the past month or so, I have been weighed down with the feeling that I don't quite fit in, no matter how hard I'm pushing. That's not down to the bogging community being hostile to me in any way, it's down to my over-dramatic brain trying to tell me I'm not comfortable with the content on my blog. To an extent, I do love just blogging about fashion, however, there's so much more to say it and I don't feel fulfilled just describing my outfit and favourite fabrics every day. Something about it doesn't feel right, it doesn't sit comfortably.
So, I have decided to switch things up a little, until I fall into the slot where I belong. I like to write, that's my ambition and it's what keeps me motivated. I like to share experiences but I still have a keen interest in fashion and style. I have decided my blog is going to feature more topical items, in contrast to my outfit of the day, almost every day. There will still be plenty of fashion-based posts, so it's not a complete content change, yet, I would like to spend time also writing about things I enjoy and sharing more than just my wardrobe.
This is all still very new to me, Anika May isn't even a year old. I don't think I can quite define my my blog yet, I just know there might be a few changes.
It's always good to mix it up a little, nice to see you taking risks!

I totally understand. I have been struggling with whether to carry on with my blog or not. Some days I feel really positive and really want to carry on and then other days I just want to curl up into a ball and hide from the world. You just carry on with what you want to do, and how you want your blog to be, dont let people force you to be someone you dont want to be .

Do what makes you comfortable and you don't have to do anything. Write when you feel inspired if that is twice in the same day or once every 2 weeks cause that's when it's fun. I myself am new to this blogging thing but it feels like every one who is new has this pressure(not saying that you have it) when starting to blog or even vlog that is to be done regularly and with high quality photos and so on which might be true to a certain extent. This is not a job(well at least not for me), this is a hobby and you make your own rules so do not weigh yourself down! :)
