Hello,
My name is Shoshana and I created StyleGoneRogue.com, September 2013 as a platform to release my creative energy, my enthusiasm for Style, the Arts, Interior Decorating, Beauty, Fitness & Travel… all things that bring me joy.
I love to express my mood in different ways but mainly through my attire. My feeling is, exude your style confidence and intelligence by knowing your body, budget and lifestyle. That said, on all accounts, I’m a tall girl. As most tall girls knows, shopping can sometimes take a little extra work but living in NYC makes it easier. Plus, I’m always up for a challenge.
I hope to appeal, to all those just like I, who have an appreciation for American simplicity, with a dose of edginess.

Hi there 🙂
I’m looking for bloggers who’d be interested in participating in a weekly ‘Outfit of the Day’ theme called Dress Up Friday. The idea is to twist the convention of dressing down/going very casual on a Friday and instead having fun dressing up. I’d like to start doing Dress Up Friday posts regularly and would love to include links and pics from other bloggers doing their own posts using the same theme, I think it would be both fun and a great way to network/promote blogs.
My first Dress Up Friday post was here http://fashionthatpays.wordpress.com/2013/11/16/dress-down-casual-friday-why-not-do-the-opposite/
Please let me know if you’re interested 🙂
All the best

Thank you for reaching out to me. I just viewed your post. I don’t own any wigs or costumes such as this. Would regular fashion/style postings be ok or are you looking to keep with the costume-play/fantasy look?
No probs and lol I’m not wearing a wig or costume but since writing to you I realized it’d be more organized and helpful to make an official post with the guidelines and list of bloggers participating for reference. Non-costume looks are totally fine, it’s all about dressing up to your own personal style and being personally comfortable 😀
Here’s the main post:

Any questions let me know and I’ll be happy to help 😀

I apologize. Good luck with you new blogging adventure.
No need to apologize but thank you 🙂 and you’re welcome to join when/if you can any Friday 🙂
I’m a tall girl too, but much older than you and it’s quite possible I’ve shrunken over the last year or so – maybe now I’m 5’9″ –
Dressing for mood is wise – like those mood rings with all their color changes.
I like your blog – it’s very hip and makes me feel hip just perusing it 🙂

Anntogether! I’m sorry for responding so darn late. I’m not sure how I missed your note.
Thank you so much for your flattering message.
A fellow tall girl, I love it! So you think you’re shrinking? Maybe my turn will come soon. One can only hope. 5’9 is a really nice height. Still above average but not so tall where it’s super challenging to find jeans/skirts long enough.
I just viewed your blog. Very Nice! I like how you’re not afraid to showcase your family. I get the feeling you’re all very close. Not to mention, your home seems so warm & inviting. Keep up the good work. I’ll be checking your blog repeatedly.
Come back & visit my blog soon. I post weekly, Monday mornings.
As you know I love your blog! So much so, that I nominated you for the Liebster award! Check out my post to find out all the particulars!

Oh yes! Another 5’11 girl, got to love it. You’re not being nosey if I have a blog and I put my personal information out there so no worries. Thank you so for you positive words and energy. That’s so needed out there these days.
I randomly stumbled on your website and I have to say I love your style! 🙂
Thank you so much. You’re too kind.
