Welcome to Sky, Miles, and Style! I’m so happy that you graced my blog with your presence. Let’s get acquainted. My name is Brittany Carson and I am a travel + style blogger living in Dallas, Texas.
I launched the blog Creativity Arise in the summer of 2012. At the time, I desperately needed a creative outlet. My daily life consisted of working as a registered nurse/ nursing professor, caring for my darling husband, and working with various organizations within my community. Behind my daily all business super serious persona was an über creative individual yearning to come out and play! As a child, I can remember writing poems, plays, and short stories just for fun. The world of blogging seemed as if it would be a natural progression. I published my first post in June 2012. It has been an amazing journey thus far. In August 2016, Creativity Arise changed its name to Sky Miles & Style in an effort to highlight the blog’s focus.
If you aren’t already following Sky Miles & Style, let me tell you the top 3 reasons why you should subscribe to my blog right now!
My experience as a frequent traveler has made me an asset to my friends and family. Whenever anyone in my circle needs to book a vacation, I am the first person they call. I love sharing my travel adventures. My unique storytelling writing style will make you feel like you were on vacation with me. I also enjoy teaching my subscribers how to travel on a budget without sacrificing the important elements of their getaway. Whether its sharing great websites to use when booking travel, showing you how to get great deals on last-minute hotel rooms, or even sharing the mistakes I made along the way as a novice traveler, you are likely to walk away with a new nugget that will help you make your next vacation, your best vacation!
I love fashion. I love shopping for clothing. Most of all, I love creating fun outfits to share. There are many fashion bloggers who feature outfits worth hundreds of dollars each day. While I enjoy looking at their OOTDs, I realize that recreating that level of style may not be realistic or even affordable for many readers like myself. I am a believer that you can look great without breaking the bank. Through my blog, I am able to share with you a variety of creative ways to put together outfits and also to challenge the reader to step outside their comfort zone when it comes to styling. I have created looks based on simple tools like the color wheel or a participated in challenges like the $20 thrift store challenge to create a stylish ensemble.
I believe that a positive mind yields a positive life. I enjoy encouraging others. To me, there is nothing better than reading a blog post and logging off the computer feeling empowered and inspired to chase your dreams, overcome your challenges, or become a doubt killer.
