Hello ladies & gents, today I am so excited to be back here blogging! Today’s post will be a catch up where I’ll answer what the heck happened to On the Colorful Side, dish on my new website, share a little bit about what I’ve been up to in my 3+ month hiatus, and of course, the post wouldn’t be complete without a few outfit details.
If you’ve been with me for the past year and a half, then you may have noticed a few changes. So… WELCOME to Daisi Ari! Along with a name change from On the Colorful Side to Daisi Ari came a brand new website! 🎉 Below I’ve answered some questions on what’s been going on.
What happened to On the Colorful Side & why did you change the name?
So, I’ve actually wanted Daisi Ari to be the name of my blog from the beginning of time. While I will always love OTCS, I just felt a little tired of the name. The switch happened because I know I won’t get tired of Daisi Ari because well… it’s my name. On the Colorful Side will still live on in my writing and my style.
What happened to your website?
Why thank you for noticing! 😉 I gave On the Colorful Side a much needed face lift! I knew that I wanted to take my blog to the next level and that required changing up my website. With this brand new design you’ll find this website to be more user friendly and (hopefully) more aesthetically pleasing than my last. I’ve switched over to a different platform, new web host, and new design. There’s still a few tweaks to be made for older posts that didn’t transfer over 100% well but other than that, this is my new website! If you have any questions about what it’s like transferring from Squarespace to WordPress, or about the new design of Daisi Ari, then drop them in the comment section! 😊
Where have you been?
Behind the scenes a lot has been going on for my blog and in my life. Last you guys saw of me, I was on my way back from Dominican Republic, and that was back in July! The truth is, it’s been really hard to keep up with my full time job, life, and blogging. It’s hard to find a balance between work, play, and your passion sometimes. I’ve been stressed out a lot lately and I realized that it was because I stopped blogging. I was so busy with work and other things, that without my passion I just felt burnt-out! So over the past few weeks I’ve been getting it together with photo-shoots and posts ideas so I am finally ready to start cranking out content and I couldn’t be more ecstatic.
What are you wearing?
If you skipped the rest of the questions and only came here for this, then that is perfectly fine! In this post I am wearing this beautiful overall dress that was only $20! New York has only recently started to cool down so for a little extra warmth I added a white turtleneck. I finished off the look with some burgundy booties, and a cognac crossbody. If it’s colder where you live then feel free to add some tights and a jacket!
Thank you so much for coming back to Daisi Ari! I’ve missed you all so much! If you have any of you blogger ladies & gents have questions about my transition from Squarespace to WordPress or my website design, feel free to leave it in the comments section below or send me an email in my contact section! Stay tuned for an exciting announcement coming up next week! I love you all! ❤️

I agree it can be super hard balancing blogging and everything thing else but I do think it helps me relax and get away from the “real world.” Welcome back!
