I can’t believe my 2013 reader survey was the first one I’ve done. I had no idea how helpful and fun it would be!
Why didn’t anyone tell me to do this sooner?!?
(I’m really good at blaming other people for things I miss, but it didn’t take a survey for me to learn that.)
I got great ideas that I’m implementing right away:
-color-coding all my outfit posts so it’s easier for you to find past looks and get dressed quicker (if you need inspiration)–coming this weekend so be on the lookout!
-an archive tab so you can skip around looking at posts from past months
-an archive tab so you can skip around looking at posts from past months
-my yellow linked text is some times hard to read so I’ve made it darker recently (is it better now?)
Suggestions that are coming soon:
-outfit/fashion tips and how-tos; what to wear to an event, what to pack on vacation, cheap & easy wardrobe updates
-more book reviews (I’m trying! Anyone have any book recommendations, I’m struggling right now…)
-more money talk (I really don’t know what else to talk about money-wise, but I’m brainstorming, I promise!)
-more family & life experince posts (sometimes I forget that other people than my mom read this and that you don’t really know that much about me…noted)
-hair color: some many hair questions. I don’t color my hair, it’s this fuzzy red-blondish-brown on its own. But I’ve got some past hairstyles/colors to show you. Oh, dear Lord, they’re bad.
-cool stuff to do in Indiana
-more on my routines (I basically have a routine for everything in life so that could be a whole series…I’m just not sure how interesting it would be; the jury is still out on this one.)
Things that made me laugh:
-“write about whatever is on your mind…reading it makes me feel more normal.” HA! Thanks?
-“naked pics of Chris please” (Christine is no longer allowed to take my surveys. Best friends are gross.)
-someone asked me out on a date (Soon Sarah!!!)
-in response to “Suggestions? Ideas?” someone wrote “I am ridiculous” about themselves. That is so random and perfect.
The top reasons you read Trusty Chucks are for fashion (85%), family/kids (69%), and food/recipes (54%). That is not what I would have guessed at all. So yay for a survey that teaches me things.
Thank you to everyone that took a moment to give your opinions and ideas. It helps me immensely and I really appreciate it. I’ll do one of those again fo’ sho.
I love, love, love this dress! I also love how it pulls out the pink in your cheeks.
Love those booties! Can’t tell if they’re wedge or not. I just finished stalking and buying some booties myself.
I’m glad someone suggested things to do in Indiana. (You may laugh if it was me, but I don’t remember doing it, what else is new….) The daughter of some of our best friends now lives near Indianapolis, and we often get asked to travel with them to go see her. Of course, I can’t remember if you live anywhere near Indianapolis……sigh.
love the peach color
