Announcing Pellerini’s First Ever Vlog
I am so behind the times. Video blogging, commonly known as “vlogging”, or creating a vlog, has been around for a few years now, and to be quite honest, there are a few reasons why I haven’t migrated toward it.
- I love to write, or type I should say. There’s something about hitting the keyboard and getting my thoughts out. The clicking of the keyboard is somewhat soothing and powerful at the same time.
- Vlogging would require me, in my mind, to have the perfect outfit on with my hair blown out and nails modestly painted a neutral color. Too much stress.
- I love to talk and am a bit concerned that I may talk too much…or babble…or get all tongue-tied.
I have since sucked it up and am going to take baby steps.

I have such a passion about a myriad of topics – fashion, parenting, wine, health, wine, beauty, did I say wine?! I decided that my first take on vlogging is going to be an “unboxing”. (Unboxing is when someone videotapes themselves literally unboxing something they have received.) Usually it is a subscription box, but in my case it will be a pair of M. Gemi shoes that I have been willing to arrive since the minute I ordered them!
So here it is (pseudo drumroll please…kidding). Please tell me what you think – about the shoes and the video. I am totally open to constructive criticism.
Are there any videos that you would like to see in the future? Maybe subscription box unboxing, recipes (which would involve the hubby – should be interesting!)?

Congratulations on filming your first vlog! YouTube is so fun, I just started this summer too!

Thank you Kayla! If you have any pointers, I’m all ears!!
Lovely video , welcome to youtube.
Nice shoes 😀
Gorgeous shoes! Great unboxing! I loved hearing your voice, but I want to see your beautiful face a little bit next time 🙂
Congrats on the vlog. I know a lot of bloggers are taking the plunge and starting to incorporate some videos into the mix.
Those ARE amazing shoes! Great job on the vlog! Now I’m probably the ONLY blogger left not doing video. I gotta get on it!
Thank you Danita! There are so many other bloggers that don’t vlog…no worries LOLOLOLOL
I haven’t really gotten into vlogging yet either although I know I should. Congrats on sharing your first vlog.
Congrats on the vlog. I’ll be checking out this shoe company. Your advice hasn’t failed me yet!
Thanks Kwame! Their shoes are awesome – they had a pop-up location in the Palm Beach Outlets over the holidays but when I went there last week it was gone 🙁
Congrats on your first vlog! I’ve been thinking about expanding into doing more videos. It seems like a lot of work, but it’s also a lot of fun, too! I’d love to see some unboxing videos!
I have not ventured into that side of blogging. I really should check into it because I know is a great way to get more people coming to your blog. You did a great job!
Way to go on your vlog! It seems more and more blogs are headed this way! Good luck!
Thank you Britni!!
This is awesome news. Vlogs are a great way to connect with your readers on a personal level. YouTube is so big right now.
I agree with you – I have been avoiding YouTube for ages and finally realized that I should at least try to get in the game and see how it goes!
Congratulations on launching your vlog. I used to do a vlog with cheerchannel and it was hard work. Go for it!!!!
Thank you Chrishelle! I hope to stick to vlogging…it takes a lot of work but is fun once it’s all done.
Oh I love vlogs, glad you have your first one out there now!
Thanks Sarah!!
Congrats on vlogging! I moved into vlogging last year with some unboxing videos. They are a lot of fun.
Thank you Stephanie! I figured the unboxing vlogs would be a good start too!
im too shy to vlog. Congrats on the vlog though and love the shoes.
Thanks Jenny! I was too shy too and I did it…I think you can too!
Great job on the video and unboxing. These are indeed gorgeous shoes and I will have to check them out. They really are so cute and perfect for summer. Thanks for sharing your first vblog and you really did do a great job I thought.
Thanks Rebecca! The shoes are even prettier in person and were so comfortable too!
Really cute shoes, I love a shoe that ties up the leg. Like you I’m late to the vlogging game but I do enjoy it. I’ve been adding them into my blogs.
Mimi, I’d love any tips or pointers you have for vlogging.
Congrats! Good job on your first VLOG!
Thanks Iryna!!
Congrats on the step forward and getting past the what ifs that were holding you back. I personally think I babble too much as well and have hesitated to make more videos.
Thank you Melissa! Try vlogging with me!!!!
oh congratulations. i really want to start doing more vlogging.
congrats on starting something new by stepping out of your comfort zone… Great shoes and video!
Thank you Eloise! I figured baby steps right?
Bravo Bravo on your first vlog loved the shoes.
