Gimme a break.

Hey everyone. My little kittens.

Maybe this was a long time coming, maybe it wasn't. It makes me sad when bloggers write these kinds of posts, but yet here I am writing one anyway.

I don't know if it's been my busy schedule, my lack of shopping funds, or just a change of heart, but lately I've just been feeling disconnected from the good ol' Daily Dani.

I used to be excited to take outfit photos every morning, upload them a few short hours later, and provide commentary on where, why, when, and how I styled up my pieces. Unfortunately, these days, I'm lucky if I find time to sleep let alone blog.

I've always been torn about how personal to get on my blog, since it started as "just" a style blog. I've never gone too deep; I've never been sure if I'd wanted to, or if anyone would want to read it. So, in turn, after almost 3 years, I feel that while, personally, my blog and I have come a long way from where we started, from a base-level outsiders perspective, it's as if I am still a young and novice blogger.

It's been said that "comparison is the thief of joy," and I'm certainty guilty of comparing my photos, outfits, numbers of followers, likes, repins, and retweets to other bloggers, and it's difficult to shake that habit.

I am incredibly grateful for the inspiration, creative outlet, and (most importantly) great friendships that blogging has provided me with. Sarah, Emily, Chelsea, and Olivia - You are my blogging besties turned real-life besties, and you are most certainly the greatest *perk* I ever could have asked for!

So, (very) long story short, I've lost a lot of my passion for blogging. This isn't a goodbye, but more of a see you later. I need some time to think about what kind of blogger I really want to be, and get a stronger grasp on my creativity that has felt fleeting as of late.

Please continue to keep up with me on Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. I'll be back - I'm just not sure how or when yet. :)

Thanks for continuing to visit my blog and for all of your support over these years. I hope you continue to stay tuned while I figure out my blog-related ish!
