Hey friendssss 👋🏽💕
Sooo… we need to talk. Not in a dramatic reality TV kinda way, but like… I have big news. Lady Social? Yeah… she’s gone. She left the group chat. She’s not coming back. 😭✌🏽
was she ever giving?
Honestly? No. And that’s the tea ☕
When I came up with the name Lady Social, I thought I was doing something. Like, I really sat there, stared at the ceiling, and convinced myself this made sense. 💀 I even slept on it and everything — as if that was gonna magically give it purpose. Guess what, it didn’t.
I mean… “Lady”? Sure. That part stuck, I guess. But “Social”??? Be so fr. I am by no means a social butterfly. 🦋 More like a bed rotter with a blog and a dream LOL. So what was I doing combining “Lady” and “Social” and just slapping pink all over it like that was gonna fix everything? 😂 One word, delusion.
omg the ick!😅
Eventually the name started giving… ick. Like one day I looked at it and went: “Wait, this ain’t even me.” 🫠
So I did what any logical person would do — I made a list of everything that screams SHAKIRA:
- Pink? ✔️
- Flowers? ✔️
- Christmas?? (Yes. Leave me alone.) 🎄
- Creativity, pastels, fun vibes? ALL CHECKED ✅
I knew I wanted something soft but fun. Cute but not cliché. Personal, but still marketable because… hello, ✨branding matters✨.
the name hunt 🕵🏽♀️
Originally, I landed on Pink Scribbles — simple, adorable, very me. Until the universe said: “LOL no.” Because the Insta handle was taken (by someone posting selfies, 😤). I thought about spelling it “Pink Scribblez” to be edgy but like… who’s googling that? Nobody.
So unless I’m trying to trend under “low views,”… no.
That’s when it hit me: The Pink Scribble.
One “The” and suddenly it’s giving blog title. ✨It’s giving personality.✨ It’s giving everything I want it to give.
The name checks every box:
- Pink = the essence of my soul 🎀
- Scribble = writing, blogging, oversharing — my fave hobby 💻
- The = main character energy 😌
Then I added some flowers to the logo (because I had to include them somehow), chose a fun retro font and BOOM — we had a rebrand.
new name, same vibes💅🏽
So here we are: The Pink Scribble is live! And I can honestly say… I no longer have the ick. LOL. Everything feels right again. Like my blog finally grew into the person I always knew she could be. 💕
I’m so excited for this new chapter and to share even more chaotic, honest, possibly-too-much-info blog posts with you.
Let me know what you think of the new name! Did it have to grow on you? Or were you instantly obsessed like me? 😂 Drop a comment, send a DM, shout it from the rooftops — whatever works!
Talk soon,
Shakira aka The Pink Scribble 💖🖊️
