Here are the lovely questions Hannah asked:

♡ When and why did you start blogging?

I started my wonderful blogging journey almost six years ago in September of 2012. Being that I was in a web design class, I had already been introduced to blogging, WordPress in particular. For one of our beginner projects, we had to set up our own blog, give it a theme, and publish a post just to get used to a simple set up. Well I ended up coming across a lovely community on here, The Clique community. The Clique is a lovely book series by the amazing Lisi Harrison about a group of girls who call themselves The Pretty Committee. In this little community these girls had Clique blogs where each blog would be in the theme of that character and basically they’d write fan fiction blog posts with their chosen character as the center of their plot line. Having adored writing Clique fan fiction on fanfiction.net, I created a blog and joined in. That is how I started out, pretending I was Dylan Marvil on the Internet.

♡ Why did you pick your blog name?

Originally this blog was named something else, but I ended up going with La vie en Rose Diaries which was what I called a series I did on my Polyvore. I felt that it was perfectly fitting for my blog as I feel my blog is an enchanting diary that shows a peek into my dreamy life.

♡ Which of your own blog posts has been your favourite, so far?

If I had to choose, I would go with The Little Things That Make Me Happy. Not only was it just so simple and pure, but in it I stepped back and just wrote a list of what truly makes me happy in life. Just the little things I’m grateful for on a daily basis.

♡ What’s been your favourite blog to read lately?

That’s hard to choose as I’ve been loving so many different ones lately, but I’d have to say Discovering Your Happiness, Lissy’s Baked Treats, and Frosting Fairy.

♡ If you could meet any one person in the world, who would it be and why?

Audrey Hepburn because she has inspired me so much in life to always be kind, have class and grace, and to help others.

♡ The most inspirational person in your life?

I’d have to say my mom.

♡ Favorite place to be?

I love spending time at the park just enjoying the beauty of the nature surrounding me. There’s nothing like frolicking through the wild flowers as the breeze gently blows my hair about and the only sounds are the flowing stream and the chirping of the birds. Plus the park is the best place for a whimsical garden tea party.

♡ What film have you watched the most?

The Clique movie! I just absolutely adore it as well as the book series. It is after all the whole reason I got into writing.

♡ Cats, Dogs or both?

I absolutely cannot choose as I love them both so much! There’s nothing I want more than a little puppy and cat I can spoil with all the love in world. Sadly I’ve never had either, but I would love a black cat and a Pomeranian.

♡ Something your proud of in your life?

That I’m still going and fighting everyday. Unfortunately I’ve been through so much in life and many times I’ve felt like I wouldn’t make it through the darkness. I felt as if there was no point in continuing on, but something kept me holding on and fighting. It’s hasn’t been easy, but I’m proud of myself for it.

♡ One piece of advice you would give to your younger self?

Never stop dreaming.
