Good afternoon lovelies 🙂
Any regular Love My Dress reader may have noticed the absence of a Sunday Serving feature yesterday – our regular weekend posts that cover a variety of topics, including trivia, and that include links to sites of interest.
Well, Cat and I have been thinking about how we can best continue to deliver to you all the wonderful tid-bits of information we find on our internet and networking adventures, in the most timely way possible and in a format that truly works for our readers. As part of this review, our Sunday Serving posts came under the spotlight. Given what we know now, we realise that whilst the content of the Sunday Servings is a brilliant idea, there may be an alternative to the once-a-week delivery format. It's great to have a regular weekly read for readers to rely on, but it has meant that on many occasions, we've had to wait 6-7 days until we've been able to post information that ideally, we would have wanted to share with you immediately.
This got us to thinking as we asked ourselves, 'wouldn't it be better to deliver shorter, more regular Sunday Serving type post?' And so the idea of a bite-sized post that could be read quickly and easily over a lunch break in the time it takes you to devour a panini was born :)
And so, welcome to the very first Love My Dress 'Lunch Time Bites' post. These posts won't necessarily be regular, they will instead appear as
and when we feel it appropriate, which could be once a week, or every
day of the week, depending on how much fabulous stuff we have to share
with you, but they will always be scheduled for publication at lunch time and on week days only. Consider it our treat to you, a little something to help break up the monotony of the working day and provide you with valuable little snippets of escapism throughout your working week.
Do let us know what you think by either leaving a comment, or dropping us an email, because we value your feedback and opinion more than anything. And so without further ado…
You've heard of Trash the Dress and the rather more elegantly named
'Cherish The Dress', well now, we have 'Vintage Cherish the Dress'
coming at you, care of the fabulous Chris Hanley and Damien Lovegrove…
