        History

        Girl behind the red door

        I first started blogging in 2013 at Being Erin when I was 21 years old. I was about to graduate university and was looking for a creative outlet and a place to share my newfound interest in photography, fashion, makeup and homewares with people. I was a natural blogger as I had a lot of feelings that were only able to be expressed through the written word, especially when I was a teenager and in my early twenties. As I approached my later twenties, I became disconnected from Being Erin and stopped blogging for a year.

        Girl behind the red door was imagined in late 2017 after I started to feel disconnected from Being Erin and hadn't blogged for most of the year. I turned 26 in January 2018 and knew I had to proceed with the new blog. The main issue was what to call it! I thought back to something I always wanted to be, or someone who inspired me and Brooke Davis from the hit tv show One Tree Hill sprung to mind. She was known as the Queen of Hearts, Pretty Girl, and of course, Girl behind the red door. After a quick search, I found that this url was available for the first time in a long time and I snatched it up.
