THE FASHION BLOGGER-TAG

THEFASHIONBLOGGERTAG

Hello again! Today I am doing The Fashion Blogger Tag. Hasn’t it been a while since my last tag! Anyway this tag was originally The Beauty Blogger Tag, I do beauty but I came to the conclusion that the Fashion blogger tag was more relevant to this blog. I love doing tags as it allows you, the reader, to gain more knowledge about me and my style so that you can hopefully understand my blog way better! Anyway, enough of me blabbering on, lets begin!
1) Why did you start blogging and how long have you been blogging for?
I feel as if I have answered this question many times before, but the answer is always the same! I started blogging due to my passion for fashion. I have always been intrigued by other people’s fashion and I think that clothes are a way to reflect who you are without even having to speak.  I just want everybody to have the chance to express themselves when they don’t know how to. I believe that my blog is a way for people unable to express themselves to hopefully find their inner style. I have been blogging since November 2013 and I have to admit that it is one of the most rewarding things I have ever accomplished! I love talking to you guys and sharing my fashion knowledge <3 .
2) Whose blog did you fall in love with first?
I definitely remember falling in love with the blog Stylebreakdown. I loved reading all of the fashion tips and advice and I can definitely say that the blog sparked my interest in blogging. I actually emailed Laura when I first started blogging and her advice was so helpful and useful!
3) What was the worse fashion product you have ever bought?
Where to start? I have definitely had some fashion no-no’s which I am not proud of. But my worse one was these cheap high heels from Primark which I thought looked really trendy! It was the first time I had not saved up for a nice pair and once i went out in the heels, the heel broke! It was so embarrassing because I fell to the ground! I do not recommend you buying cheap high heels unless you are positive they are good quality and well made.
4) What are your five favourite things about blogging and being a fashion blogger?
1) Feedback- I love hearing what you guys have to say about my blog! There is nothing better than spending a longtime on a blog post then publishing it and people giving you feedback on it. I am a supporter of constructive criticism and feel that the only opinion valid is yours! Please feel free to comment or email me on what you would love to see next on my blog!
2) The community -I love the community of bloggers that comes with being a blogger! I feel like the other WordPress bloggers are like a second family to me all of who I can talk to and ask for advice! I remember when I first started blogging and I had absolutely no clue how you did things like upload more than one photo or simply add a link. The blogging community all helped me figure these things out. Also if it weren’t for the blogging community I definitely would not have been tagged for tags just like this.
3) Writing blog posts- I love sharing my knowledge with you and gain the most satisfaction from simply sitting at my desk and pouring my fashion knowledge onto my blog! I find blogging a really good way to relax.
4) Reading other blogs- I love reading other blogs to see what is trending at the moment. Reading these blogs gives me an insight as to what readers love to read! Also from other blogs I learn so much fashion and beauty tips and tricks which hopefully make me a better blogger!
5) Gaining fashion knowledge- When doing research before a blog post I learn so much! For example when I did the Topshop prints Charming Collection I saw this lovely collection, in fact I loved the collection so much that I actually bought one of the dresses myself.
5) What have you learnt from being a fashion blogger?
I am completely honest when I say that I have learnt so much! I have gained knowledge on fashion and beauty and I have learnt what it takes to be a blogger! I never thought that I would ever learn how to work WordPress but I am so thrilled that I finally have!
 6) Have you changed anything since becoming a fashion Blogger?
Yes, I have. I changed my old laptop to the new Apple Mac and changed my phone to the iPhone 5s. To be honest I upgraded my electronic devices partly because of my blog but mostly because of my need to keep up with the new technology.
7) What advice would you give to a fashion Blogger just starting out?
I would say be confident in what you write about and if you believe in what you are doing it will come across in the way you write about it. Always make room for improvement and make sure you post regularly so that you don’t loose readers! Finally be unique in what you write about! Nobody wants to read the same thing on every website. People are looking for advice which is different and useful. Remember that it doesn’t matter if you don’t get tons of followers after your first blog post you just have to be patient.
8) What is your favourite fashion brand?
Moschino- Cheap and chic! I just love the range of clothes and bags that Moschino has to offer! They are so cutting-edge and you see so many celebrities wearing Moschino for example Katy Perry and Iggy Azalea.  I will have to do a blog post on Moschino very soon!

9) Who is your fashion icon?
My fashion icon is definitely Jourdan Dunn! She has the best sense of style and dresses fabulously. She is trendy yet sophisticated at the same time! She is definitely a fashion icon to look out for.
I tag everyone to do this tag! Leave me the link to your response in the comments if you decide to do it! Can’t wait to read your responses!
Thank you guys for reading and I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post just as much as I enjoyed writing it!

BEAUTY GET TO KNOW ME- TAG

I was scrolling through one of my favourite bloggers, Littlebitsoph, posts and that was when i came across this tag. She stated that she was tagging anyone who was willing to do it so i thought i might as well!  I hope you guys enjoy reading through my answers!
1. Where are you from?
I am from Cheshire in England, the weather may not be the best but it sure is a great place to live!
2. Were you always interested in fashion/beauty?
Yes, i have been for as long as i can remember. I am a true shopaholic and that was where my interest for fashion and beauty begun.
3. What fascinates you in fashion/beauty?
I guess everything about fashion and beauty fascinates me, but the main thing that is so intriguing is the fact that your style is a way of showing who you are on the outside, it can reflect you and your personality. When you know how somebody dresses you are closer to knowing who they really are.
4. Do you have a daily beauty routine that you try not to miss?
Yes, every morning i apply my Body Shop tee tree facial wash and facial toner. It keeps my skin hydrated and leaves it feeling fresh.
5. Is there a beauty item you can’t live without?
It is quite hard to pin-point just one as i have many i can’t live without, but my No.1 would have to be my NARS Laguna Bronzing Powder.
6. Do you always remove your make up before going to bed?
I remove it most of the time, on the odd day i forget to. :P
7. Do you visit Day-Spa’s or even have special Spa- holidays?
I have not been on one recently but i do have a Spa Day coming up soon!
8. How often do you go to the hairdressers?
I visit the hairdressers around once every two months. I normally just go to get my hair washed, dried and trimmed.
9. During your Hairdresser visit, are you inclined to take risks considering cut and colour?
Like i said earlier i normally have a little trim, never a big cut! But I did once have my hair dip dyed by the Hairdresser.
10. Name a no-go fashion item.
Just like Littlebitsoph, it would have to be Crocs!
11. Manolos or Louboutins?
Definitely Louboutins!
12. Are you a girly type or a Tomboy?
I am definitely a girly type! I love dresses, skirts and all things pink!
13. Do you exercise regularly?
I exercise every morning and evening because i have to walk my dog!
14. Describe ‘blogging’ in three words.
Interesting, creative and over all fun!
