10 Years

Dreams-Jeans-10-Years.jpg

I cannot believe that as of this month, Dreams + Jeans is 10 years old! I started this blog in the summer between my junior and senior year of college, when I was living in New York City for the first time and looking to document my time. It quickly evolved into a favorite hobby of mine and over time, into so much more.

It’s really crazy how much blogging has changed over the past decade. In the beginning, it was just something fun to do and a way to connect with other people. Many never dreamed it could be turned into a full time job and career. Personally, I’ve always had a full-time job and have balanced my job with running this site. Working on this site is something I truly love to do—I love being able to share what’s inspiring me and sharing parts of my life with you!

Over the years, I’ve also been lucky to meet so many amazing people and have formed lasting friendships with people I’d likely never have met if it weren’t for my blog. I’m so thankful for those relationships, including those of you who I haven’t even met in person! I’m so grateful for all of my readers and every single comment and email—it truly makes my day when I hear from you.

I am truly so appreciative of each and every one of you that has followed along over the past 10 years (including the quiet years!). It means so much to me that you stop by and read what I share. Thank you thank you thank you for your continued support! I’m excited to see what lies ahead!
