Blog of the Week: Life Unsweetened

This week's blog of the week is Rachel who blogs over at Life Unsweetened!  Meet Rachel:

I’m Rachel, a 20-something from upstate New York. By day I’m a SEO copywriter and freelance writer and by night I’m a life and style blogger for Life Unsweetened. You could also call me a social media nerd, non-crazy cat lady and a chocoholic. In my spare time, I enjoy seeing my friends and boyfriend, shopping, watching my favorite trashy television shows and listening to music.

Life Unsweetened was started in January 2012 as a New Year’s resolution. Having been a long-time reader of blogs and an aspiring writer, I decided to give it a shot for myself. I created this blog as something to do outside of my 9-to-5 job and as a way to express my love, interest and opinions on a wide range of topics- including fashion, beauty, music and more.

Life Unsweetened is best described as a life and style blog- without the sugar coating. Post topics range from personal life events, outfit posts, reviews of beauty products, my personal opinions, helpful blogging tips and much more. But no matter what I’m writing about at the moment, you can be sure everything you read will be my own honest opinion and may have a trace of my sometimes-sour outlook- hence the blog’s name. (I also just really like lemons).

Hop on over to Rachel's blog Life Unsweetened and show her some North East Bloggers comment love!

Blog of the Week: Luck Fupus

This week's blog of the week is MarlaJan who writes over at Luck Fupus.

Hi! I'm MarlaJan, the mastermind of Luck Fupus (www.luckfupus.com), and I'm thrilled to be the Blogger of the Week! 

Luck Fupus is my little space on the interwebs where I tell my story of living with multiple chronic diseases, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and tetralogy of Fallot (there's more, but I could be here all day listing them!). 

Whether I'm having a dance party while wig shopping, snapping pictures during chemo or Dutch Ovening myself getting an MRI, follow me as I always try to find the humor in the not-so-great hand I've been dealt. 

Always real. Always funny. Not always politically correct. 

Friday, May 17 is Put On Purple Day for Lupus Awareness Month! Wear purple to show your support for the 1.5million Americans who suffer from lupus!

Congrats on being Blog of the Week MarlaJan! Everyone, make sure you go check out her blog this week and say hi!
