NC Blogger Buzz: Spring Session Re-Cap

On Friday, Angela and Ashley hosted our North Carolina Blogger Buzz meet-up at Bevello! Bevello is a gorgeous and spacious boutique in Cameron Village with the nicest ladies working there. It was definitely the perfect location to have the event! For this session, we had a group activity where we discussed blogging, had fun in a photo booth, and ate delicious food from PDQ. We also had two amazing speakers! Molly spoke about working with sponsors and brands, and Emily spoke about branding your blog and making it unique. They did such a fantastic job! We always leave the events feeling inspired by all of the amazing bloggers in the area. We can't wait for the next event in the Fall!
