When I started blogging over a year ago, I had no idea what I had gotten myself into! I didn’t even know what social media really was, or how to build relationships on my Facebook Fan Page and Twitter accounts! I then decided to take a much needed break, because honestly, I was overwhelmed. I spent countless hours reading, asking questions in blogging forums, and watching webinars, so that I could get a better grasp on building my blogging career. The bottom line is, that I will always have to continue my education in blogging, and that’s why I became a founding member of iBlog magazine .

iBlog is a professional magazine for women bloggers, whose advisory board includes some of the top female bloggers, social media, and branding experts there is. Each issue will have blogging ideas, answers, tools, strategy & inspiration, and I don’t know about you, but that’s exactly what I need. You will also have access to exclusive member benefits such as: monthly training webinars, a morning talk show, and interviews with professional bloggers. I have no doubt that this magazine will become quite popular among professional female bloggers, and I look forward to meeting and growing with all my fellow lady vloggers and bloggers. If you are interested in becoming a professional blogger, or want advice on how to grow your blog, please take advantage of the pre-launch discount at iBlog.com. It’s only available to the first 997 people, and if you don’t want this commitment “yet”, but would still like the “inside scoop” on all the behind the scenes action & surprise gifts during pre-launch, you can register for a FREE membership! You know how I love that word FREE! 🙂

I love to follow current trends in fashion and beauty, and today I was searching online for some gardening shoes and came across some trendy shoes, but also some garden apparel and tools that are made just for women. So, below I thought that I would share some garden fashion finds that I think are really neat, but would also help me in my everyday to-do gardening activities. So here we go…..

What I love about this apron, besides the variety of colors you can get, is that it is has tool pockets and plenty of areas to put your cell phone. Trust me, you need a place to put your cell phone, because I have dropped my phone a time or two while answering my phone in the garden . 🙂

I live in an area that is loaded with red clay dirt, and having some great gardening/rain boots are must! These boots are so darn cute I can’t stand it, and they will slip off and on with ease!
Gardening Hat & Gloves


If you want to get some serious gardening work done, then having a quality pair of gardening gloves is essential, and I always wear a hat to protect my face and head from the suns rays! (Last year I had a dark skin spot test positive for pre-cancerous cells, so no more messing around in the sun unprotected for me)!
Gardening Gift Tool Set

To top off my gardening fashion finds is this really pretty Long Handled Garden Tool Set which includes wooden handled garden tools, gloves, and a knee cushion (which my old knees need). I also found some potential Mother’s Day gift ideas such as garden themed gift baskets, outside decor, gardening planters and patio furniture . All of these items are available at a really cool online store called Hayneedle.com. What I like about this site, is that they have competitive prices and most of their items have free shipping available! So be sure to give them a try the next time you are looking for a particular home item ! (Just a simple savings tip) 🙂
Just so ya know, that some of the links above are my referral links, which means I may get a small commission if you make a purchase, at no additional cost to you of course. Thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoyed my gardening fashion finds.
