Hi and welcome to my first ever blog post!  In the past two years, I’ve contemplated over and over about whether I should start this blog.  I wasn’t sure about what people would say or think, but I recently spoke to a close childhood friend, Dr. Seuss, who reminded me, “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”  Feeling encouraged (although I’m still super nervous as we speak), I created Just a Tina Bit as a source to share with you (and hopefully inspire too!) a glimpse of my personal style as well as my other loves like cooking, interior design, and travel.  I hope you join and support me on this new, exciting journey as a beginner blogger (who is very new to taking and editing photos) along with my boo (who was forced, with love of course, into becoming a beginner photographer)!

    Welcome to the blogging world! You definitely did all the right things starting out. Looking back I would have taken better photos and had my blog professionally designed, but alas, it's all about growth and I'm so happy where mine is now. Anyways, love the quote. Because blogging really is all about being you. There's no point in trying to replicate someone else's look, blog or success, because at the end of the day it's already been done, and you bring a new perspective! Well that's my long advice LOL not that you even asked for any. Just saying, keep up the good work! Newest reader right here girl 🙂
