Meet this week’s featured lifestyle blogger: Emily Tharpe.
Emily is the founder and content creator of HerPhilly.com, which is a hip lifestyle blog for the twenty-
something Philadelphia woman. When the New Jersey native moved to Philly in
2011, she searched high and low for this same type of resource, but her
searches proved to be unsuccessful.
“After a year and a half of telling my friends and family about all of the cool things
I had done and seen, I decided to start sharing my adventures with a whole new
network,” said Emily.
Therefore came HerPhilly.com. She went ahead and created her own blog, which
aims to share the hottest eateries, trendiest boutiques, and upcoming events with
young city-living women like herself. Emily and her blog have been featured on a
number of outlets including CBS Philly and The Huffington Post.
Anyone looking to get better acquainted with the hidden gems in this city should
check out this blog. Emily’s posts include her favorite fall date ideas, favorite
pizza shops, apartment hunting pointers and where to get the best pedicure- all
in Philadelphia. Emily blogs about fun events going on in the city.
Her Philly offers lists with topics ranging from holiday gift guides to the cutest
planners and agenda books to provide subscribers with easier shopping.
The best part about Her Philly? Emily’s “chit-chat” section, of course. Chit-chat
gives subscribers a closer look into Emily’s life like what she does in her spare
time, talks about body image, being single, and much more.
Give her blog a try and stay in-the-know about all things Philly. Emily loves to
hear from her subscribers! Make sure to follow her on Twitter or Instagram her
handle is @HerPhilly. Also, don’t hesitate to shoot her an email if you have any
questions or suggestions at herphilly@gmail.com.
