Why Belle, ReInVintaged?

Bear with me; this could get long-winded...

I'm southern (and proud of it!) and have been blogging for the past ten years with some variation of "belle" as my blog persona. I've always used the tagline "not your typical southern belle" because....well, I'm not. I'd like to think I'm about as opposite as one can be to the stereotype. Although I'm more "southern" than "belle," I eventually dropped the "southern" from my name when I started my last blog, This Belle Rocks.

That little blog was my online voice and refuge for four tumultuous years of my life, and it is now time for a change once again. I'm keeping Belle because it means "beautiful". And who doesn't want to lead the most beautiful life they can? (It is also an actual name, should I ever decide I need a bit of online semi-anonymity.) ReInVintaged is a play on "reinvented", and also a nod to my love of all things vintage - it's part of the name of my online vintage shoppe, ReInVintaged Goods, after all!

While this blog will continue to chronicle my love of thrifting, flea markets, tv, movies, books, and especially MUSIC, it is also where I will document my journey to reinvent myself physically and reinvent my home on a non-existent budget through various upcycling and DIY projects. With an eclectic soundtrack and fabulous vintage finds, of course!
