A community embracing the creative, entertaining and exploratory aspects of life - From fashion, design and décor, to food, travel, technology, mindset and wellness. It is a space for sharing information, experience and opinion on the above topics. Be it a restaurant or venue review, product unboxing, insight into upcoming fashion or make-up trends, exciting technological developments, décor tips, advice and more.

For a brief outline of the content considered appropriate for this community, please refer to the examples below - but please note it is not limited to these, they are simply a guide for better clarity and understanding.

Product design / creation (design, fashion, decor, accessories)
Product / venue / restaurant reviews & news

NB: Spontaneous photo shares which capture a specific moment in time (a night out, dinner with friends, a venue visited, a new outfit purchased etc.) should include NO LESS than 3 photos as well as a minimum of 100 words which pertain to the product / experience / place and add value to the sharing of the images in the first place. ie. The name of the restaurant, where it is located, was the meal you shared in the pics good? If it is a new outfit, tell us where you got it, what other stuff do they sell, add a link to their website etc.

Hopefully that gives you the "general" idea. If you are unsure about whether or not certain content of yours would be suitable, you are welcome to drop a comment on this post.

If the idea of "Lifestyle Blogging" appeals to you but you would like a little more clarity - HERE is a lovely post by the Elgin Avenue, sharing her experience, development and growth as a lifestyle blogger. I hope it inspires you. In the next little while, I will put some focus on posts which inform and guide those looking to develop the "lifestyle" aspects of their blog. This is the beginning of a new adventure and I am looking forward to travelling it alongside all of you.

Here's looking forward to the building of a first class lifestyle feed for the readers of Hive! I would be most grateful to any of you willing to reblog this to "get the word out" of the change.

I am just tagging some of the people that are still actively publishing to our community so they can act accordingly.
