I turn down 90% off all the advertising opportunites I am offered as I want to stay true to my blog, but if someone wants to send me something I would buy or use or pay for a review I dont see why not! I also make sure I have full editorial control over all posts and write then as 'me' I dont just want to paste a press review as it would be boreing for my readers. .-= Pearl Westwood´s last blog ..<a href="http://fashionpearlsofwisdom.blogspot.com/2010/04/doppleganger.html" rel="nofollow">Doppleganger?</a> =-.

Sometimes, it feels like the only reason a blog exists is to do sponsored posts. If I see you getting a "gift" of several shoes, shirts, accessories, sunglasses...every week...I'm skeptical as to how discerning you are with your choices. At the same time, you don't have to pay for anything you're wearing. I'm sure people know what I'm talking about. It's just a little disconcerting when I see that you're receiving a bit too many free things for me to feel like you cannot be swayed. I don’t mind them up to a certain point.
