If you’ve always wanted to start a fashion or lifestyle blog, dream of a career in the field or simply want to share your style, thoughts or share your life, starting or developing a blog is much easier than you think.

During the 11 module course, you’ll learn everything from the planning, preparation and behind the scenes action that’s required in blogging to the nitty gritty more technical, creative and design lead parts.
