She&#8217;s a fashion blogger with visual merchandising and personal shopping experience, and focuses her site on helping women of all ages, sizes and budgets find their personal styles and put more flair into their wardrobes.\n\nShe&#8217;s talking to us today about the evolution of blogging, facing the competition and going full-time with her business.

It&#8217;s a small town where we can walk almost everywhere but are just a couple Metro stops from the heart of our nation&#8217;s capital.\n\nI quit my day job November 2017 to focus on my blog but it also helps me focus on my family and self. I&#8217;m able to take my daughter to school every day, provide an income to my family from my home office, and be there to help her with homework in the evening.\n\nWardrobe Oxygen is described as a fashion blog, but it&#8217;s a bit of lifestyle too. I offer fashion advice, share my style through outfit posts, write a lot about beauty and skincare, travel, concerts, and the occasional air fryer or home tour. My goal is for my blog to not be aspirational, but relatable. I want to help my fellow women find style in the everyday and have fun with fashion no matter their age, size, budget, or lifestyle.\n<h2>How did you get started blogging?<\/h2>\nI was hired for a certain contract at a new job and was brought on to the company a couple weeks before the contract started. I was told to &#8220;look busy&#8221; until the contract began. It was 2005, I learned about blogs on a news show and thought it was the perfect way to look busy and I&#8217;ve been hooked ever since! I started as a personal blog, but switched to fashion advice with a second blog focusing on what I wore. In 2010 I merged the two into what is Wardrobe Oxygen today.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6921 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-II-329x460.jpg\" alt=\"Pinterest image - Rothy's flats: an honest review\" width=\"329\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-II-329x460.jpg 329w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-II-215x300.jpg 215w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-II.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 329px) 100vw, 329px\" \/>\n<h2>How long have you been a Mediavine publisher?<\/h2>\nSince June 2017\n<h2>What was it that drew you to us as a partner for your display advertising?<\/h2>\nI had removed all ads from my site because they were ugly, took up so much real estate, and didn&#8217;t bring in enough income to justify them. I don&#8217;t recall where I found out about Mediavine, likely on a blog I enjoyed. Did some research, signed up, and my only regret is that I didn&#8217;t start sooner!\n<h2>How has that evolved over time?<\/h2>\nI love how I can adjust the frequency of ads on my site, the Facebook group is one of the most informative and friendly ones I have ever joined, and the response time and customer care is phenomenal. I can&#8217;t rave enough about Mediavine!\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6922 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-III-593x460.jpg\" alt=\"Alison Gary stands in front of the US Capitol Grounds.\" width=\"593\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-III-593x460.jpg 593w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-III-387x300.jpg 387w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-III-768x596.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-III.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 593px) 100vw, 593px\" \/>\n<h2>How do you think blogging has changed since you started?<\/h2>\nWell, I&#8217;ve upgraded from mirror selfies with a powder blue Canon Powershot to scheduled photo shoots with a professional photographer (my husband)!\n\nIt&#8217;s been exciting to grow with blogging, when I started it was for fun. I had no catchy name, no custom URL, and found followers through the taskbar at the top of Blogger blogs that would have you land on random sites from all over the world.\n\nThe blogosphere has exploded and to remain relevant and be found in the sea of bloggers you have to keep raising the bar. Higher quality photos, engagement on multiple platforms, video, social, ways to extend your brand beyond your URL, pitching yourself to brands&#8230;blogging is no longer a platform for a shy person hiding behind a keyboard!\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6923 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-Logo-441x149.png\" alt=\"Wardrobe Oxygen - Breathing life into your closet\" width=\"441\" height=\"149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-Logo-441x149.png 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-Logo-768x260.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-Logo-1120x378.png 1120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 441px) 100vw, 441px\" \/>\n<h2>What&#8217;s the best part of the blog world for you?<\/h2>\nThe community. The friendships I&#8217;ve made across the globe with readers, bloggers, and even the people behind the brands I&#8217;ve partnered with.\n<h2>What&#8217;s the worst part of blogging for you?<\/h2>\nThe competition. While I&#8217;ve made some amazing friendships through blogging, I have also experienced backstabbing, cattiness, lying, cheating, and more. It&#8217;s easy to get sucked into it, to start comparing. It&#8217;s important to remember even if you&#8217;re in a specific niche, your blog is unique from any other, with a unique audience, and unique purpose.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6924 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-I-610x460.jpg\" alt=\"A collage of various women's clothing and accessories\" width=\"610\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-I-610x460.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-I-398x300.jpg 398w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-I.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/>\n<h2>Who are your FAVORITE bloggers. Who inspires you? Why do you like them?<\/h2>\nGrace at <a href=\"https:\/\/thestripe.com\/\">The Stripe<\/a> is a fave. We&#8217;re different people with different lives, but I admire how she has built a successful blog and community while remaining honest and down-to-earth.\n\nBeth from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.styleatacertainage.com\/\">Style at a Certain Age<\/a> is a friend and someone I look up to in blogging. She is professional, consistent, and has built a very loyal and authentic following.\n\nCourtney from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kerrently.com\/\">Kerrently<\/a> started as a hate read but became one of my favorite bloggers. She has a clear aesthetic while remaining brutally real and honest, is hysterically funny, and shows you can be extremely successful without selling your soul.\n<h2>What are your top 3 posts on your blog?<\/h2>\nI&#8217;ve been creating capsule wardrobes for many years and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2013\/04\/capsule-wardrobe-no-fashion-victim-no-frump.html\">Capsule Wardrobe: No Fashion Victim, No Frump For Women Over 40<\/a>\u00a0continues to be my most popular post on the blog.\n\nMy best product reviews are ones where my readers ask me to try out a product they&#8217;ve been curious about. One of my readers asked about this brand of shoes she kept seeing advertised on Facebook and Pinterest. I bought a pair, gave them a beating, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2017\/10\/honest-rothys-flats-review.html\">Rothys Flats Review<\/a> is one of my most successful posts of all time and it&#8217;s not even a year old!\n\nI&#8217;ve always written about fashion with a touch of feminism. Being a DC local, having attended many protests in my life, it made sense to write <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2016\/12\/what-to-wear-to-a-protest-march.html\">What To Wear To A Protest March<\/a>\u00a0before the Women&#8217;s March in January 2017. I&#8217;ve written similar posts for what to wear to concerts, road trips, business travel, and such and I never imagined how far it would reach and how much it would be shared. I&#8217;m awed and humbled by the success of this post and it inspired me to continue to speak my truth on the blog.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6925 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-V-340x460.jpg\" alt=\"Alison Gary\" width=\"340\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-V-340x460.jpg 340w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-V-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-V.jpg 756w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/>\n<h2>What are your 3 FAVORITE posts on your blog?<\/h2>\nI wrote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2009\/09\/the-self-deprecating-comment.html\">The Self Deprecating Comment<\/a> back in 2009, inspired by a woman I was friends with who constantly criticized herself. I didn&#8217;t edit, I didn&#8217;t write for SEO, and it really hit a nerve with my readers and many others. One of the first blog posts that reached a wider audience, growing my numbers exponentially. Each time I get caught up in the blogging game I remember the success of this simple post.\n\nAs a fashion blogger, body size, shape, and image are always part of the conversation. My size has fluctuated a lot in the 12+ years I&#8217;ve been blogging and I know my readers can relate. I decided to walk the talk and get my engagement ring resized and shared the story in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2017\/09\/with-this-ring.html\">With This Ring<\/a>. I had strangers stop me at the farmers market and mall to thank me for this post. Things like that make me proud to be a blogger.\n\nI wrote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wardrobeoxygen.com\/2017\/11\/quitting-versus-giving-up-blogging.html\">Quitting Versus Giving Up<\/a> when I shared with my readers that I was quitting my job to focus on the blog. Considering a good portion of my readership comes to Wardrobe Oxygen for work fashion advice, I was very nervous to share this news. I had many bloggers tell me to not admit I quit my job, but I have always been honest with my readers. I&#8217;m glad I told them, and when I&#8217;m doubting my choice I go back to this post and read the comments.\n<h2>What tools and resources do you use to manage your blog?<\/h2>\nAs a fashion blog, <a href=\"http:\/\/chloedigital.com\/\">chlo\u00e9digital<\/a> is my saving grace for handling WordPress issues and understanding the intricacies of our unique niche.\n\nLast year I hired a VA who helps under the hood and also puts together my newsletter. She&#8217;s an awesome person and helps me achieve my goals and keeps me on schedule. I hired a second VA to focus on Pinterest since I saw the potential but also saw what a time suck it was for me (I&#8217;d go to pin my capsule wardrobes and end up gathering recipes!)\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6926 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-VII-619x460.jpg\" alt=\"Alison Gary stands at a railing, overlooking a river.\" width=\"619\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-VII-619x460.jpg 619w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-VII-404x300.jpg 404w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-VII-768x571.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Wardrobe-Oxygen-VII.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/>\n<h2>What is your biggest traffic source?<\/h2>\nPinterest\n<h2>What strategies have you used to make that your top traffic source?<\/h2>\nI hired a VA to take over my Pinterest. I still pin new content, but she works on growing my audience and traffic. I also made a more concerted effort to make Pinnable images and update evergreen content with Pinterest-friendly graphics.\n<h2>Do you have any advice for bloggers on how to grow their traffic?<\/h2>\nWhile many bloggers recommend guest posting, SEO, and Pinterest to gain new followers, I&#8217;ve had the greatest success cultivating loyal relationships with my existing followers. They have been phenomenal in sharing my content for me, giving me honest feedback, suggestions for future content (some of their ideas have gone viral), and engaging on multiple platforms. Don&#8217;t forget those who helped you get to where you are now!\n<h2>Anything else you&#8217;d like to add to help other bloggers grow?<\/h2>\nFind your tribe, your crew, your mastermind group. A small group of folks you can trust, who will provide honest feedback, help amplify your content, and together you can help one another get to the next level. Huge Facebook groups are fine, but that small circle is what can keep you sane and keep you reaching your goals.\n<h2>What&#8217;s the one thing on any restaurant menu you MUST order?<\/h2>\nSteak
