A: I grew up and am still living in South East England.
Q: What have you studied, and what are you doing now?
A: I recently finished my time in sixth form studying Textiles, English Language and ICT. Now I'm spending my summer working on my blog and I am hopefully going to be studying Fashion Journalism at Southampton Solent University in September.
Q: How would you describe your personal style in 3-5 words?
A: Monochrome, Minimal and Comfortable.
Q: Where do you shop? Luxury or high street? New or vintage? Boutiques? Online?
A: I shop mainly on the high street, shops like Topshop and New Look; however, I also love a bit of online shopping on sites like MissGuided and ASOS. I'm also a lover of raiding my mum and dad's wardrobes for any style steals.
Q: If you had $300 for a shopping spree, how many items would you buy?
A: My first instinct would be to buy anything and everything, but I think I would spend the money on a few staple items that I know I would get a lot of wear out of.
Q: Do you prefer street style fashion or runway fashion?
A: Don't get me wrong, runway fashion is beautiful, but there is something about the freedom and individuality of street style fashion that I love!
Q: What do you splurge on? Skimp on?
A: I splurge on things that I know Id get a lot of use out of - shoes, a staple bag, a coat for example. As for skimping, it's mainly things that I might have bought that will only be on trend for a shorter amount of time, something that might get worn for a couple of weeks and then that's it.
Q: When and how did you become interested in fashion, and where do you find your inspiration?
A:I guess its kinda cheesy to say, but I've always had some interest in fashion. When I was younger, I definitely experimented with my style and tried out different things and I think the fact that I had the chance to do that made me fall in love with it. Now that I've discovered that there's much more to fashion than just nice looking clothes, it's made me want to explore it more. For someone that's always been interested in technology, a lot of my inspiration comes from sites like Instagram, Tumblr and Pinterest and of course as a newbie blogger, a lot of my inspo comes from fellow bloggers and vloggers as well.
Q: What do you love about fashion? Not love?
A: Fashion and clothes allow people to express themselves and who they are in a way that words may not be able to. I love that throwing on a few pieces of material can completely transform a person; the way they see themselves and the way other people see them. And I guess the one thing I don't like goes along with that but it's not necessarily fashion's fault. Although in recent times it's become more accepted, being individual and different with how you look and what you wear often gets scrutinized by people around you and as a result, lots of people have to hide behind what's deemed as socially acceptable in order to be seen as 'normal'.
Q: Your favorite designers & brands?
A: There's something about air of coolness and street style that surrounds Alexander Wang that I love. As someone who is a huge fan of tartan, Vivienne Westwood is also a love of mine.
Q: Do you have any fashion rules when putting an outfit together?
A: I wouldn't necessarily call it a rule, but 99% of the time I tend to focus my outfit around one key piece and keep the rest fairly simplistic. Whether it be a coat or a jacket, or a pair of shoes, I like to have just one key focal point to grab peoples attention and have the rest just compliment it, not overpower it.
Q: What is your dream job?
A: A fashion journalist or writer, someone that gets to spend their day writing about something that they love and putting things out there to the public that they may not have considered or seen before.
Q: What are your other interests? How do you spend your spare time?
A: Now that I've finished with school I have a lot more time to spend on my blog, but when I don't have my fashion head on I'm a lover of books - I've recently rekindled my love for reading. I've also recently begun being healthier so I've joined a gym and I'm on a journey to become a healthier and happier person. I'm also a huge film addict, anything from sci-fi to comedies, you name it, I've probably watched it.
