Thank you for all the work you do to collect these links! May I make a request? (Sorry if you’ve addressed it in the past, and I’ve missed it.) When linking to other sites, including links to clothing/shoes/accessories in your daily posts, could you possibly code the links to open in a new window please? I follow about 100 blogs on a daily basis, and forget which ones have links that open in a new window (without overwriting the blog post) versus which ones need right clicks on the browser. It’s so very helpful to be able to stay on your main post and click through all the links in one fell swoop, instead of clicking the back button after reading every link. Thank you again! ❤
WE have a new design coming (I feel like I’ve been saying it forever, but paying for it, and coordinating it has taken more time than I thought.). The links in the new site will open in a new tab.
There’s a loud auto-play ad that appears in the middle of the screen, right below this post.
I’ll see if I can get that off. All these ads will be gone at the end of the month.
