Don’t Be Lady BlahBlah

We’re dressing in a fashion world right now that lives by very few rules.

White’s get equal right all year long, patterns are mixing peacefully in the same outfit, and navy and black have finally put down their differences and can be worn together in harmony.

And while we have set aside most of the rules we lived bound by in the past, one rule still stands. One law that we fought for after we saw the 80’s cast it aside is-too much of one thing is too much (you hear that Lady Gaga?).
It’s really a law to live by in life (just ask my friend who can’t eat Krispy Creme Doughnuts anymore after a childhood binge).

Which brings us to the second day in this week of making you look better online-don’t be the Lady Gaga of the internet. Keep your status updates, your tweets, your online presence to a minimum (InStyle recommends not updating anything more than 4x’s a day, The Spiff says, even 4 times in one day is a lot).

You want people to be excited when they see you online not tired of reading what you had for dinner, or when you said “good night” to the world the night before.
Edit your presence online and you will quickly become the Jennifer Aniston of the internet-everyone will want to see what you’re saying/wearing.

This holds true for pictures, posts, anything that involves you putting something out there for all the world to see, keep it to a bare minimum. Next time you want to share too many times online, write them down and go back to them another day. Spread the love over days, not minutes. And picture Lady Gaga…it’s too much! Don’t be this online, for all of our sakes…

  1. Twitter’s mobile apps let you save drafts, so you can store them for later. Hootsuite lets you schedule them to post at specified times. BufferApp combines both – you can set up a schedule, and then just add tweets as you think of them – they’ll post the next one at the next scheduled time.
    It’s less stressful tweeting!
