Can you already tell that this monthly notes is becoming a thing? (Read my January notes here) The Giveaway is happening at the end of this post, so lets ease into it slowly.
February brought with it a mixture of both good and some “bleh” moments but definitely more of good. One area I experienced major disappointment in this month was on the job front (housemanship) but the year so far has been incredibly good to me and I can only be thankful for that.
Through it all, I learnt to be grateful for and fully present in the moment. To focus more on my own journey and keep the faith while I’m at it. Doing that and making space for more gratitude in my life this month gave me some peace even when faced with the uncertainty that life sometimes presents.
I’m glancing at my blog planner’s (Have you ordered yours?) february goal page as I’m typing this and I wouldn’t say I did as well in this area compared to last month, but I did manage to get somethings done.
For one, I finally got a new blog theme and decided to stop waiting on the unreliable person that was meant to help me with it. If you’re signed up to my mail list, then you’ll know how much changing my theme has been weighing on my mind (sign up here, lets get talking!)
I also did two blogger collaborations – this vals day style guide and another with the super cool Bella that’s yet to be put out.
I planned to launch my blog workshop/coaching services and a few other projects but that dragged a bit, so lets stay woke for this March!
I’d say february was a month of getting out of my comfort zone more and doing things afraid but doing them regardless – I gave a small talk to a group of awesome ladies at their monthly meet up and went on Spice TV’s spice most. Slowly but surely unlocking my inner chatter box
All in all, it was a good month. I feel like it happened too quickly though and was over before I could close and open my eyes.
BLOG THEME GIVEAWAY.
Because I know how much getting this new blog theme has already brightened up march for me a bit, I thought to giveaway a similar blog theme (actually the same but without some of the tweaking I requested for when I bought it) to some other blogger who has been looking to switch things up and fall in love with their blog again.
Its a blogger theme though, only for people on blogspot.
The Giveaway Rules :
– Just Click To Tweet!
– Subscribe to my blog here
– Follow me on imstagram & repost the picture above on Instagram with the hashtag #cassiedavesblogthemegiveaway and mention me in your caption @cassiedaves.

Lol) I don’t want my comments for this post to be turned into a giveaway details comment so I’ll contact you via your social handle or subscription email if you win and there’s no need to leave me your details.
Decided to also include a quick outfit post into this, sharing this look from a weekend in 2015 (Peep my 2015 in style here). Let me know what you think about the look and of course –
Ah yes love your new blog theme! Good luck with the job search and don't worry, March will be good to us all IJN!
AMEN!!! Thanks Muna
Yassss! Finally! I love the new theme. February was hard. It was both physically and emotionally tasking. I did get pushed out of my comfort zone as well, I actually thought I'd enjoy it but I did NOT -____- I'm just thankful March is here. I can tell it's going to be way better than February already.

wow… I love this theme and I think having a new blog theme would go a long way for me… I have not been blogging of late due to lack of inspiration and I think having a new blog theme would make a lot of difference for me. I know if my blog gets a new look, it would literally jump out of my computer and give me a big peck on the cheek.I am locking myself in for this giveaway and I am doing this for myself and for all the blog visitors that have been stalking and threatning to injure me if I don't come back to blogsville…. so lock me in Cassie.
I need one of the blog planner…how do I get one?

I noticed that you haven't been blogging, you should ohh ehn.
I'll send you the planner details via mail ^_^
February was a bit slow for me. Lots of E! watching and traveling. I know march will be better though.
I love your new theme. It's very easy on the eyes and organised.
Happy New month dear.

Heyy Cassie! Love this fabulous new theme. Been trying to subscribe to your blog but it's not 'doing'
Loool! Its not 'doing' – nigerian english sha. It actually "did" because I saw your sign up. Thank you! And thanks for the compliment on my theme
Love this keep it up
Thanks babe !
Walling it as usual with those pictures Lol. I feel really unfulfilled with how my February went, it was like I did not get anything done despite my constant running about to go for job interviews. I'm hoping the good Lord would work wonders in my life this month (give me a real big birthday present too). Sad that the theme is for only blogspot users. Have a wonderful & blessed month.
