Special moments are always a reason to celebrate! Since today marks the 7th Anniversary of Inspirations & Celebrations, it’s the perfect moment to say thank you for being a valued member of this wonderful community.
In thanks of your continued support, enthusiasm, and engagement, as the Creator and Lifestyle Editor behind I&C, I’m excited to announce the “Inspirations & Celebrations 7th Anniversary Giveaway”.

A Thank You Note from The Creator & Lifestyle Editor
It all started with a big idea and a little inspiration.
I wanted to create something that unleashed my creativity and fulfilled my entrepreneurial spirit, while also helping other women. Through Inspirations & Celebrations, over the past 7 years, I’ve reached hundreds of thousands of gals, inspiring them to dream bigger, become happier, and create a life they love.
My mission has always been to educate and empower women through inspiration and information. From style guides and beauty tips to health & fitness tutorials, entertaining inspiration, travel guides (and so much more!), I’m passionate about creating content that adds value to your life.
Through I&C, my goal is to make your life easier, happier, and more amazing. Plus, a few fun giveaways along the way always make things more exciting, right?!
Since launching I&C on October 3, 2011, I’m proud to have built a warm and wonderful community of 300,000+ readers and subscribers from all over the world. It’s been a passion project filled with a lot of fun, hard work, perseverance, and the continued drive to make this a destination that you love and enjoy learning from.
Whenever I read your sweet comments and get to know you better through social media, I feel grateful to learn that I&C is a source of joy and inspiration to you. Your excitement and engagement fuel my desire to keep it going, growing, and getting better every day!
So thank you for being a loyal I&C reader and for spreading the word about our awesome community.
Now, on to the fun part… the Giveaway!

7th Anniversary Giveaway Prize
While I&C often hosts giveaways that include deluxe prize packages (like beauty products, fashionable shopping sprees, entertaining and home decor gifts, and even luxury vacations), sometimes a little extra spending money is the best type of giveaway.

So to help you fulfill your dreams this season, one lucky winner will receive a $500 Visa Gift Card!

What I love most about Inspirations & Celebrations is your fantastic fashion and style posts and tips. I also love your fitness tips and hair tutorials. One more thing I really love about your blog is the posts and pictures about the Carmel and Monterey area. Happy 7th anniversary!
I love the variety! Moreover, one thing that like ABOUT the variety is that it’s approachable– it’s not overwhelming to me. I especially love the features in the Lifestyle category! I love how Inspirations and Celebrations seems to have a found a wonderful balance between the practical/everyday and the special/beautiful. Thank you!
I had entered this earlier in the month but was checking to make sure I had shared it. The Pinterest share button does not work on this one and all the giveaways for some reason. When I press it a new page opens and it looks like it’s working but when I choose the category to enter the giveaway into a message comes up saying sorry something went wrong. I tried it on the other giveaways this month and got the same thing. Just a FYI.
I like that you include gluten free in your posts about food. My sister in law is GF and it’s nice to get fresh ideas for her.
I like how you give me new ideas and show me different ways to see things.
Happy Anniversary! I love that you focus on a variety of topics from fashion to health.
