I think it’s incredible how far bloggers have come, from designing ranges for fashion stores, becoming internationally recognised for their style & sense of fashion, launching their blogs as full time websites earning millions from revenue and collaborations, or even releasing successful books documenting their work. There have been a number of blogger books over the last few years, but one that I invested in recently (and thoroughly recommend) is ‘What Kate Ate’, a recipe book released by food blogger Katie Quinn Davies. Despite being a fashion (and lifestyle) blogger myself, I actually read a lot of food blogs – the recipes and photography inspire me no end, and I can spend hours browsing through the archives. What Katie Ate was a more recent find of mine & in a moment of frivolousness I decided to buy the book – it’s a stunning hardback, full of seriously tasty recipes and the most beautiful photography. I’m so glad I picked it up & can’t wait to get trying some of the recipes.

THOSE THAT MADE IT
. WHAT KATIE ATE COOKBOOK .
Whilst no blogger probably set out with the ambition of becoming hugely successful and internationally renowned, a few have done just that. It’s amazing how blogging has become a platform for incredibly successful entrepreneurs, not only in just fashion and style but also in food, parenting, interior design, photography. I seek inspiration from those that have transferred what most likely started out as a simple hobby, into a full time, well paying (Youth millionaires are being bred out of youtube like nobodies business) career, their own business, their own fortune made from a drop of passion and a ton of dedication.
Have you bought into any blogger books? Do you recommend any for me to try next?

Lovely. I love recipe books (or any books really) with the little ribbon bookmark. I think the only book I’ve bought that’s come from a blog has been the Design Sponge book, but that’s interiors rather than food.

Really interesting post! I also think it’s crazy and amazing how people are getting so much success through blogging. A great example is Zoella who’s on the front of Company magazine this month!
I also like other blogs. Food blogs are great when I have money and terrible when I am poor (like now!) but art and photography blogs are always great cause they inspire me and I need no money to enjoy it haha.
Great post & Haaaappy Spring!
