A Nautical Look and What Did I Do?

Old Navy Boyfriend jeans with the striped Blazer works well and Giant Tiger boots. Nautical necklaces

Happy Monday and don’t let the happy smile fool you too much, I had a slightly stressful weekend. OK well first world problems stress in the real world but slightly higher on the blogger front. I may be rocking a nautical look but inside I am still quaking, WHAT DID I DO……

I impulsively on Saturday afternoon, purchased a three year hosting on Blue Host and a fun little Theme for word-press and started the conversion. I know how crazy is that. Without thought or any planning I just did it. On a positive note I will have a great blog post in the future. And sad fact at the moment I am still creating my post on blogspot because I am comfortable with it, I know it and I am too tired to learn anymore. The one silly thing I did was buy the Installation package. I am too impatient, so I purchased the plan thinking I would get an instant install…. nope three day turnaround so I started it myself. Silly of me really, but I was so anxious to get started.

I found a plugin that transfers my posts but it keeps stalling on the pictures, tags and pages so I have been manually creating Image Previews…. this could be a long process. If you plan on switching and so far after 24 hours I am not regretting it too much, the one piece of advise I would give you is, its not hard really but pre-plan your posts so you can spend a week just playing and learning. That would have been the smart thing to do. I have been an impulsive blogger since the beginning but sometimes I really think it is better to plan. Seriously I probably would have a ton more pageviews and stats if I had been a planning gal.

There are a ton of great youtube videos that helped me out, I scanned article after article and I probably re-pinned a ton of articles. No matter how much I searched I still coulkd not find the blogger to wordpress for dummies that I really wanted. Show me in pictures or in lay terms. The minute they start talking css, coding, xml, htm… well you understand right… keep it simple and make it easy.

Outfit wise, a casual Friday outfit… How fun is this Old Navy Nautical Look? My boyfriend jeans with the striped Nautical Blazer works well and I threw on these amazing Giant Tiger boots for a unique look. I added my 7 Charming Sisters long necklace to the anchor one I already owned.

So sorry folks short post for my wordpress debut but I really am tired, this was exhausting on the brain.
