If you’re reading this on the day it’s posted, it’s a dreary, rainy day in Boston. I think we all need something to brighten our mood, and that something is Alyssa of Feathers and Stripes. Alyssa is a sweetheart and mom to an adorable daughter and dog. I love Alyssa’s sense of style and her reliability. I hope you enjoy getting to know more about her.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN BLOGGING AND WHAT MADE YOU START?
It feels like forever! I had my own webzine (that’s embarrassing…) when I was 13, but I started blogging officially in 2012. I was actually taking a required class for my MBA, and someone mentioned to me that I should start a blog. I had actually been thinking about it for a while, but I didn’t know where to start.

WHO IS YOUR BLOGGER CRUSH?
Every day I read Chronicles of Frivolity, and I feel like Katey and I could be bffs in real life!
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE POST YOU’VE EVER WRITTEN?
I made a change to my working life so that I could pursue personal projects, and I loved the experience and writing about it, too.
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM BRAND TO COLLABORATE WITH?
