Happy FRI-YAY!! It’s the end of the year, which means it’s time for my annual Best Of Blonde & Ambitious (you can check 2017’s version HERE)!! I love taking this time to see which posts from the year did really well, and rounding all of them up for a) nostalgia and b) to catch up those of you who are newer to the blog. It’s always fun to see because I’m always surprised at the posts that do the best – and it helps me curate content for next year! Let’s dive into this!
