Outfit: Why We need more professionalism in blogging?

Wearing: Boots: Allsaints, Dress: Zara, Blazer: Zara, Sunglasses: Dior, Belt: Black and Brown

Professionalism is something that is expected in any area of work so why does it seem there is a lack of it within blogging? I have been in this industry for many years and encountered many different people. Are they all professional? No. However there are many that extremely professional and they create a good reputation in this industry. And that is the direction it should go. Sadly over the last week I came across so many stories within my circle of “colleagues” and I must say at times my jaw just dropped.

Let’s face it bloggers have been criticised so many times in printed and online publications and some critique came from highly respected people. And although the criticism probably does not apply for everybody in some ways some points are valid. Firstly there should be more respects in between creators towards each other. Some ways of communication are just not acceptable. And all it is is change the language, the tone and phrase things differently.

A friend of mine recently told me about a message on Instagram she recently got and she could not believe her eyes as somebody she barely knew asked for sensitive piece of information. On one hand I understand that being direct sometimes gets you what you need but you have to really judge these things carefully. And actions like this only create a bad image of influencers. Another friend that works within PR told me about an incident when the brand rejected a blogger’s proposition and what followed was extremely rude and aggressive response. If I was that PR I would have blacklisted that person forever as there simply would not be trust. I could not collaborate with anybody that has that sort of attitude.

Another friend got a message from an influencer that has recently started asking tell me how to make money fast! Is that so bad? No … but in the context of any other industry it is just strange. I cannot imagine that another professional for example within real estate, recruitment, audit, modelling contacts total stranger and asks them tell me how to make money fast. It is not professional way to do it and plus the tone of the message was very aggressive. Also hundreds of influencers share their tips on things like growth, money making and so on all over the internet. So it would question the other persons proactivity as anybody can find lot of information online and on youtube as well.

And these are just few things that made me thinking what can we do to change it. Yes if 50 % of us are going to be professional that is still only half and whoever has got dealing with the other half will get bad experience. I am glad there are extremely professional people and in some ways it is improving but it is still such a new industry, anybody can start at any minute, the competition is big and sometimes the circumstances are forcing people to act how they act.

Profesionalita se ocekava v mnoha oborech a tak premyslim, proc je ji v blogovani tak malo. Jsem pravdepodobne jedna z tech prvni blogerek a tak uz to delam nejaky ten patek a muzu rict, ze jsem potkala spoustu velmi rozlisnych lidi. A jsou vsichni profesionalni? Bohuzel ne. Nastesti je ale spousta, ktera jsou extremne profesionalni a ja doufam, ze timto smerem to take pujde dal. V poslednich par tydnech jsem slysela z kruhu svych “kolegu” pribehy nad kterymi mi zustava rozum stat a zaroven se nedivim, ze maji blogeri tak spatnou reputaci. 

Co si budeme povidat, blogeri se probirali v nekolika tistenych i online casopisech a novinach a kritika byla v hodne pripadech od respektovanych zurnalistu. A prestoze se urcite nevztahuje kritika na vsechny, nektere body me ani neprekvapuji. V prvni rade musi byt influenceri vice profesionalni mezi sebou. Nektere zpusoby jednani jsou proste neprijatelne. Vse je o tom jak mluvite, staci trosku slusnosti, spravneho tonu a  hned to vypada jinak. 

Jedna znama mi nedavno rozhorcene rikala, jak ji nekdo koho sotva zna napsal na Instagramu o prosbu, ktera si myslim, ze byla docela drza a nemistna. Ja ocenuji, kdyz jde nekdo tvrde za svym, ale tohle byl trosku jiny pripad. Druha znama, ktera pracuje jako PR mi rikala, ze jedna blogerka, ktera je oslovila na spolupraci a byla zamitnuta reagovala velmi agresivni odpovedi. Zustaval mi az rozum stat. Pokud bych ja byla v situaci te PR tak tento clovek bude zapsan na blacklistu, protoze bych jich nemohla nikdy sverit do rukou propagaci zadneho produktu.

Dalsi znama mi rikala, ze ji nekdo naprimo a velmi zvlastnim tonem napsal, at ji rekne jak na Instagramu vydelat penize co nejrychleji. Je to blba otazka? Ani ne ale jakmile si tuto situaci aplikujete na cokoli jineho, je to prinejmensim divne. Predstavte si napriklad personalistu, realitniho maklere, auditora jak vkraci ke konkurenci nebo jim napise email and napise jim, at mu reknou jak rychle vydelat penize. V tomto pripade me napada jen to, ze to musi byt nejaky linejsi clovek, protoze internet je zaplaveny tolika tipy jak rust, jak zacit a ta dana osoba si to muze proste jenom vyhledat. 

Je smutne ze ne vsichni si uvedomuji, ze kazi reputaci ostatnim, pokud se chovaji nemistne. A tohle je jenom par prikladu za poslednich par dni. I kdyby 50 % z nas bylo profesionalnich, porad je to jenom polovina. Bohuzel blogovani je neco, kde neni treba kvalifikace a nejsou urcena pravidla a je to vlastne relativne nova zalezitost. Kdokoli muze zacit prave tady a ted a to je obcas ten problem. Blogovat muze zacit starsi slusny clovek, mladsi vysokoskolak a stejne i ten, kteremu profesionalita absolutne nic nerika. Urcite se to da zmenit, ale je potreba tohle tlacit vic do sveta a ukazat ostatnim, ze profesionalni chovani je treba ve vsem.

Outfit: Why do I have to be more grateful

Wearing: Trousers: All Saints, Shoes: Versace, Jacket: All Saints, T-Shirt: Asos

I read few times that apparently 2018 is meant to be a hard year for lot of people. This year relationships are being tested, friendships and lot of things that are not functional are meant to fall apart. This year people are meant to discover not very pleasant things in their life and it is meant to be a hard year in general. Hmm not a very nice read right?

And to be fair although I am always trying to focus on positives sometimes it is hard to isolate yourself from the negative information. If I speak to my family and they just mention something I absorb it. And yesterday when my sister was telling me another catastrophic incident It came to my mind I do have to be more grateful. Do not get me wrong I am thankful for everything I have in life but there are days when I totally take certain things as automatic and it shouldn’t be the case. The problem is people always want more. I currently live in an apartment with two bedrooms and man how much am I dreaming about bigger house (and fingers crossed everything goes well and we move next month). It is normal to be ambitious but at the same let’s stop and think about all those amazing things we have.

As one of my really good friends said…There are so many people in the world that would kill for what you have. And she is right.

I have been complaining a lot recently about how exhausted I am. Most of the times it is because of my son is waking up too early but there are times like today when I am writing this that I have so much going on that my mind does not let me to sleep. I plan what has to be done that day, that week and keep thinking about the move and all the things that have to be organised. And that is really only a small problem. So let’s be grateful for everything. I will definitely try to do that more. Whether that is the fact we can just get water from our tap at home or be grateful I have this gorgeous jacket.

Uz po nekolikate jsem narazila na informace o tom, ze rok 2018 mel byt narocny, jeste nejsme u konce, ale v tomto roce jsou testovany vztahy at uz partnerske tak i ty ostatni. A vse nefunkcni se ma rozpadnout. Lide tento rok maji pry objevit problemy, nevyresene zalezitosti vyplavou na povrch a vubec nic prijemneho. Dobrou zpravou je, ze nove vztahy vzniknute v tomto roce maji byt silne. Kazdopadne to ma byt spise horsi rok pro vetsinu lidi. 

A prestoze se vetsinou soustredim na to positivni a rada mluvim o dobrych vecech, tak je obcas tezke vsechny spatne informace ingnorovat. V posledni dobe se ke me dostavaly informace o rozpadu vztahu, smrti, nemoci a bohuzel i to je soucast zivota. A take bez tech spatnych veci by nebylo mozne odlisit ty dobre. Kazdopadne neni jednoduche tyto veci prejit, ale co jsem si vcera uvedomila, ze nesmim brat veci automaticky. Vzdyt mame krasny zivot. To ze mame strechu nad hlavou, zdravi, rodinu, jidlo i nase kazdodenni radosti jsou prece to uzasne bohatstvi. Jenom i ja obcas beru veci automaticky a pak resim nesmyslne veci misto toho abych si rekla, mam super zivot. 

Jak rekla moje dobra kamaradka…vis kolik lidi sni o tom, co mas ty. A ma uplnou pravdu. 

Nebudu vam lhat, ale v posledni dobe jsem hodne unavena. Bud me budi Liam, kteremu se nechce uz v nelidskou hodinu spat, nebo me budi moje myslenky a premysleni o tom, co musim vsechno stihnout. Ale to ze clovek nema svych alespon 8 hodin spanku je opravdu mala vec v zivote a musim to tak zacit brat. A proto jsem se rozhodla, ze se budu snazit byt vdecna kazdy den a dekovat za vsechno. Jestli uz je to fakt, ze si muzu pustit vodu z vodovodu a nebo i ty luxusnejsi veci jako treba tahle krasna bunda :)

Outfit: You do not have to put your dreams on hold….

Wearing: Trousers: Zara similar , Shoes: Gucci, Bag: Chloe, Sunglasses: Le Specs, T-Shirt: River Island, Jacket: AllSaints, Bracelet: Monica Vinader

It got very quiet here on the site and my social media platforms and the reason for that is me catching some nasty flu that turned into something much worse than expected. More than two weeks later I am still in bed and on second sets of antibiotics and very weak. However, brighter days are coming and this is a first time I have a bit of strength to write. Until now I had to put my goals and dreams on hold and fight to get better.

But it does not mean you have to put your goals and dreams on hold. I wanted to share with you a bit more about an amazing online place Sewport. There has been a lot recently about influencers and people setting up their brands and these guys are exactly what you need. They connect brands and clothing manufacturers and help you to turn any idea to a product. And you have everything in one place and you probably know that the path from idea to a products has got lot of layers and steps. You do not have to source elsewhere or find more people to help you as this is what you can do at one online destination. It is such an amazing idea for eager entrepreneurs that are not even sure where to start.

I hope whatever your goals are that you will go after them. My short term is to get well and better and then be back on track. And if you haven’t seen my latest video you can catch up here and find out how to look more expensive.

Pekne to tady utichlo a nejen tady. Hlavnim duvodem je silena chripka, ktera me skolila tak jak nikdy predtim. A ted cekam na krevni testy, protoze je za tim mozna i neco vic. Mam uz druhe antibiotika a v posteli jsem uz vic nez dva tydny. Musim rict, ze jsem se necitila snad jeste nikdy takto slaba a vysilena. A tak jsem vlastne vsechny sve plany a sny musela na chvili odlozit a soustredit se na uzdraveni. 

Kazdopadne pokud vy snite o necem a treba zrovna o tom mit svuj produkt, svoji firmu, tak jsem objevila super online firmu Sewport, ktera pomaha prave takove sny uskutecnit. Spoji vas se vsema s kym je treba a z vaseho napadu tak bude moci konecne vzniknout finalni produkt. Myslim, ze napad je to skvely a stoji za zminku.

No nic, vy si dal plnte sve sny a ja se jdu opet lecit, protoze to lezeni me uz opravdu ale opravdu nebavi.  A nezapomente, ze na mem kanale je nove video

Outfit: Is this a Greek top?

Pictures: Iva 

Wearing: Shorts: All Saints, Shoes: Saint Laurent, Top: Shein, Sunglasses: Rayban

When I put this gorgeous boho looking top on in Greece my other half shouted to our 10 months old son…”Look Liam mummy has a Greek top on”. LOL

Well, I guess it could pass for a Greek top but I know for sure it quickly became one of my favourite summer pieces. I teamed it up with these gorgeous All Saints shorts I have been wearing non stop. They are made of super comfortable material and the lace trim is just right up my street. I wore them so much even before the holidays here in London as we had super hot weather.  And I could not wear with anything else but my Saint Laurent espadrilles. Those are definitely one of the best buys this year.

I am slowly getting back to my routine, planning lot of meetings and also planning next trips which are going to be to Ireland and Czech Republic. I really want Liam to travel as much as possible. I know he will not remember it so young but I can just see how much fun he has. Nothing beats that happy face when he was running in the water or playing on the beach. They are little but they know what is good. LOL

Kdyz jsem si poprve dala na sebe tuhle boho bluzku, muj muz rekl memu deseti mesicnimu synovi “podivej Liame, mamimka ma na sobe Reckou bluzku”. Podotykam, ze to bylo na dovolene v Recku. A proc ne, myslim, ze se do Recka hodi. A navic jsem si ji v posledni dobe oblibila. Na dovolene jsem ji mela nekolikrat. Tentokrat jsem si ji oblekla take k novym sortkam z All Saints, ktere jsou z moc prijemneho materialu a jsou lemovane krajkou. Presne muj styl. A ty jsem nosila kazdy den uz v Londyne, protoze presne pred odjezdem tady uderily horka. 

Ja se pomalu dostavam do sve rutiny, planuju, pracuju, sjednavam schuzky pred nasi dalsi cestou. Dalsi destinace bude Irsko a Cesko. Chci aby Liamek cestoval co nejvice. I kdyz si to nebude pamatovat, hreje me na srdci ta radost v jeho ocich, kdyz dela hezke veci jako koupani se v mori, hrani se na plazi. Je to k nezaplaceni.
