Oh my goodness, this is probably my favourite event to blog for! Why? It's so pinpoint theme that literally EVERYTHING you get... will work for you posts.. it's perfect! THIS IS WHY I'M ADDING SO MANY ITEMS FROM THE EVENT! I definitely suggest trying to get into this event! EVERYONE IS ALSO SO VERY NICE AND DEFINITELY A HELPFUL BUNCH! 

Being an event blogger is probably one of the most stressful tasks.. and I have been a blogger for a few.... some I'd go back to in a heartbeat... (Kustom9, Anthem) then there's events that I would NEVER touch again, like... the INC one.. by Novel. Satan Inc, Santa Inc, Cupid Inc.
Some challenging factors for event blogging is that there's so many more other things to think about!
  1. Showcasing as many designers as you feel that you can and fits your posts! 
  2. Having posts within a certain time frame, some events like a post done within 10 days of the event opening... or 5 days before the event opens! Which is super time crunch for someone like me who takes sometimes DAYS to finish a post... 
  3. Female bloggers (even if you identify as anything else) have more tasks than males. Which I do understand male presenting/body avis do have less stores and less items to work with.. but sometimes... a post with MORE items and better quality... is worth missing one extra post.. IN MY OPINION!
  4. Getting assigned stores that might not be your style... IT'S TOUGH! But always remember... it broadens your ability and shows your skill outside your usual box. :)
  5. Stores putting scripts in their blogger boxes to secretly check that if you take their item... you blog it. WHICH I ALSO GET AND DON'T GET... I don't take items that I feel I will NEVER use.. but I will take items that I see me maybe not using during the event but I'll use in future... and showcase the designer then..  I ACTUALLY HAVE A LIST OF ITEMS FROM LIKE A YEAR AGO THAT I STILL NEED TO BLOG that were either gifts.. or I took from event blogger rooms! I just scratch them off my list as I go.. I DO APPRECIATE THE HARD WORK DESIGNERS GIVE!! I just am a lot slower and my brain will cook with your items in thought.. but it'll not be a fully outfit for a while. IF THIS MAKES SENSE (btw I have over 600 outfits saved and MOST HALF DONE) I'll include a gyazo for proof LOL: Full Number of Outfits
  6. No where near close to all the items being available! Bigger events like: Collabor88 or Kustom9 THOUGH THEY DO GET A DECENT CHUNK OF LOVELY DESIGNERS OFFERING ITEMS but they don't get as many designers as say a smaller event like Anthology (Which is also an AMAZING event to blog for, though do they like me and my tardiness for having a post within the first week? PROBABLY NOT) 
I fully understand that rules need to be in place for some people as there is unfortunately some people who will take advantage and look at the items as "free items" which always annoyed me... as a blogger these items.. NEVER FREE! If I'm taking ONE item for you to blog.. I'm spending 2k or more Lindens to finish each outfit... DO I NEED TO DO THIS? No. But I love quality and maximalism and I personally.. wouldn't blog if I didn't enjoy my own blogs. 

There's also good amazing things that you can experience working for events as a blogger... 
  1. Introducing yourself and finding new stores you haven't heard of or forgotten about for a while
  2. Getting to see items earlier than most and plan for future outfits!
  3. Meeting groups of bloggers and designers that are super helpful and creative just like you or how you want to be!
  4. MY FAVOURITE.... Getting early access to shop the events without 9238470348 people spamming teleports to get in!
  5. FATPACKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS GALOREEEEEEE
  6. Trying on stuff you don't think you'd ever buy... AND LOVING IT! I always find clothes or objects out of my comfort zone.. something super regal or something super UWU... I try it on and MY BRAIN COOKS... it's so fun!
Anyway, here's some insight and my personal opinions of blogging for events.. Some people super despise it and some people prefer it. I BELIEVE EVERYONE SHOULD TRY IT ONCE OR TWICE.. at least don't like badly run events turn you away from the gems in the rough.
