I like to surround myself with people that inspire me, people that make me want to go home and start a project.
How long have you been blogging/vlogging/creatin
I started blogging just over 5 years ago, while at Uni.
Why did you decide to start your blog/vlog?
I always loved this creative environment and I wanted to be part of it. I love creating outfits/stories and sharing them with the world.
Do you see this becoming a career or part of your career?
I would absolutely love to make this a full-time job in the future.
What do you hope to achieve for your content in 2018 and what’s your big-picture goal?
For 2018 I want to focus my energy on Youtube. I feel like video is the way to go and I want to build a strong Youtube channel that will go hand in hand with my blog.
What is your favourite social media channel & why?
It's too hard to pick between them, so I'll say: Instagram for diversity and Facebook for being able to connect with people at another level. Ideally, I would love Instagram with Facebook's engagement.
What is your favourite tool or app that helps in your content creation?
I try to do it all myself, but I do love using Photoshop to edit my images: need to compensate for the lack of light in rainy Manchester!
Who is your blogging/vlogging/content
I really like Frassy Audrey and Victoria (inthefrow) - they really take their job seriously and you can see how much effort and professionalism goes into each post/video. I also feel I connect with their personalities and fashion sense.
What do you like to do on weekends? Where can we find you hanging-out?
On weekends I like to go to brunch with my friends or my husband; after that, you'd often see me do Insta stories about a road trip. I love exploring areas around Manchester. It's also the best time for me to work on my blog and catch up with some shopping.
If you could go anywhere in the world or experience any one thing, what would it be?
Travel to Africa - Safari. It's on my list! 🙂
What're your tips for staying motivated and/or organised in your work?
I read a lot of self-help books and I like to surround myself with people that inspire me, people that make me want to go home and start a project. Last but not least, it's my passion for doing something creative (fashion oriented) and the pleasure I get every time I do a blog post.
What is the one piece of advice you’d give other content creators & aspiring bloggers/vloggers?
To just start doing it. And if you have any ideas, go ahead and make them happen!
Fun/Random fact about you (go on, surprise us!):
I hate jeans and trousers. I would wear dresses all the time if I could 🙂
