I love style posts and learning the new trends, but most of my favorite blog posts are the personal ones--the ones that make the blogger feel like a friend rather than a random person that you stalk on the net. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing a blogger's outfit of the day, but I love it even more when there's a story behind the outfit. My favorite blogs are the ones I feel like my best friend is writing and not an unattainable celebrity. Today we'll get a little personal and I'll share some of these favorite blogs with you!

Pick Your Beau nominated me for the Liebster Award MONTHS ago. Literally in August. (#procrastinationstation) I'm finally doing it, though! Everyone check out her fab blog (one of my favorites, but can't retag her!) and tell her I sent you!
Here we go--
1) Post 11 facts about yourself
2) Answer the 11 questions given to you by the person who nominated you, and then create a set of 11 questions for your nominees!
3) Choose 11 nominees that have less than 200 followers and link to them in your post
4) Let them know they've been tagged!
So first things first, 11 facts about ya girl Ash.
1) My mom has banned me from going to Target before after a few shopping sprees with her card...
2) When I was 3, I competely waxed one of my eyebrows off and it still grows differently than the other one.
3) I'm EXTREMELY afraid of bugs. Like I really don't have any big fear other than bugs, and I will go crazy if there's one around me.
4) I'm a sucker for a big t-shirt and my collection is unrivaled.
5) I'm surprised sweet tea doesn't run through my veins. I may or may not be drinking a Cookout tea as I write this. #shameless
6) I was named after the Ashley River in Charleston which basically means I'm destined to live there, right? (Right.)
7) My parents used to tell me to go in the yard and wait for a bird to land on my head and I would sit there for like an hour waiting.
8) I'm that girl who is super book smart but people don't know because I'm extremely ditzy and have zero common sense.
9) Cinnamon dolce frap when it's hot, cinnamon dolce latte when it's cold. Except for when gingerbread is out.
10) Wooden spoons freak me out. Just the texture, ergsfweg. I'm cringing just thinking about them.
11) I can't high-five without looking dumb.
