There's a blog that I love.... #1: Dino Princess Char

Illustration by Hannah at Doodleheart
There's a blog that I love I frequently see posts where people share blogs that they adore. I thought I'd like to highlight blogs that I think are great or bloggers I think are super because it's nice to share and always important to show appreciation. The first person I am highlighting is:

www.DinoprincessChar.blogspot.com - Char

Char is a kind, kind, clever and beautiful person!

 I first came across her blog through Pink-haired Princess Gemma (who I also adore!), I used to see 'Dino-princess Char' comments and think "Who is that!??"- finally, I went across and looked. How can you not love someone whose nickname involves prehistoric beasties!!??

She also has the most droolworthy wardrobe, many of which she has made herself and dare I even mention shoes? Char possibly has the craziest, most cool shoe collection I've ever heard of and did a wonderful challenge where she wore every pair of Irregular Choice shoes she owned on consecutive days!  Visiting her blog is like visiting a museum dedicated to fun, quirky and unusual clothes and prints. I click each day with an excited sense of anticipation for what whimsy I will find within.  She and Gemma are solely (ha, get it?) responsible for the naughty acquisition of around 5 pairs of Irregular Choice shoes, one of which Char passed on to me.)

She also happens to be my penpal and she's extremely dilligent at writing (plus she has the coolest stationery!) and she is just kind and though I think she works too hard and worries too much, I love reading her daily posts- she's honest:  life is not all sunflowers and stars- she's honest about her struggles. She writes a good variety of different posts too! Books, recipes, wishlists, daily style and more.

She's also extremely modest and doesn't seem to know what a wonderfully kind and thoughtful person she is.  She is caring and considerate and wonderfully individual. She might have some of the coolest latest dresses, but do not think that she is a fashion clone- No, this lady has a unique sense of fun in her style and she's not afraid to mix up a great variety of patterns in a riotous medley of colour.

Oh and finally, she's decided not to shop for the whole of 2014 and I salute this!

  5. Pen pals are amazing things - I had 2 Canadian pen pals last year and unfortunately it has seemed to fizzle out.. though South Africa did go through a bit of a mad time with the post office strikes.. I wish I could kick it back up again!
    Going to check Char out now xxx

  7. I love Char, her blog always makes me smile and her sense of style inspires me to be true to myself, and yes, Char has wonderful stationery! I loved getting her letters throughout Uni as each one would be different and if I was having a rubbish day it would instantly turn it around. I love the fact that bloggers are sharing their favourites with eachother, it's a wonderful way to salute them! Great idea here Kezzie, and I got your letter today I will reply as soon as I can do. Lovely, lovely post and what you said was so true too. - Tasha
