Cons
People judge me in an instant by just viewing my photo, they automatically assume, well some, that I'm this self-indulged, narcissistic, bimbo person. It's hard because my photos can't speak in the form of my personality whole. My photos are a creative expression of what I love to wear, with a short caption. That's why I enjoy doing Instagram stories, helps others understand who I am, I'm a funny, chilled and loving person.
The thought of how many people have screenshot my photo and sent to their friends kinda gives me the creeps.
People will speak about you, no matter what. They'll speak about how good you're doing, how shit your doing and how they just dislike you for no apparent reason. I'm putting myself online, I knew I had to accept this, and that's ok. I usually block out this shit, because those who speak about others are just shit themselves.
People not crediting your work and Googling yourself and finding images on other peoples sites!
Taking photos in public and being laughed at, it's not really a con to me, but I've had people mock me in the streets. I keep in mind while shooting that I'm creating what I love doing, so screw you, random person.
People not understanding what you do and the stigma of saying I'm a fashion blogger can give some snarks and remarks by others. Some people think blogging is a joke, but it's no joke. It's a full-time job and I love every minute of it.
Going over my phone bill monthly, it can be really costly scrolling on Instagram all day if you're not connected to wifi!
Not showing every detail, some days I actually do get down about life, and I can't write about that because I don't want others to be down or feel sorry for me because there are worse things out there than me just having a bad day. Sometimes i'm just too hard on myself.
In the end of the day, the Pros outweigh the Cons any day! But, I wanted to give you an insight to my own thoughts about online life, let me know in the comments below your thoughts about social media! Style notes are listed below..
Till next time Foxes
