Yup, you heard it correctly, we are taking it back old school and linking up with Amber, Stephanie and Amanda to tell you why, how on earth I came up with my blog name!
Well, if you have been reading my blog for anytime now, you know a few things about me: I am blonde (well naturally, not at the moment though because remember that time I decided to go dark?); a lawyer, and former pageant queen. Naturally when I decided to blog I thought well I could go Elle Woods since I have been likened to her a lot. But actually, my first blog, which lasted only a hot minute was called "Young, Married, Professional?" I had just gotten married and was about to start my first lawyer girl job. But hubs was not so much a fan. So I quit blogging for a while.
Fast forward to starting my job. I realized the experiences I was going through were unique, funny, stressful and my friends and family wanted to hear about it. Mostly my lawyer friends lamented. So I decided to start again. This time I went the lawyer route and Illegally Blonde was born!
While I mostly blogged about being a young lawyer, I have also taken on life, fashion, cooking, random thoughts and everything else in between. I still blog about being a lawyer, but I have to edit myself sometimes so I ya know, still have said job in the morning! JK. My job is just like any other lawyer for the most part, we worry over every 6 minutes, we strive for perfection, labor over one word, go down rabbit trails, work on the weekends yada yada.... But I am blessed that although I may not love what I do every day, I love who I do it with every day (for the most part). I have great co-workers! So enough about my blog name, let's hear about yours!
