11 Nominated Questions
1. Why did you begin blogging?
I had always been a blog reader and YouTube watcher, and felt I had something to bring to the party such as my eclectic stash of beauty products as well as my love for fashion and lifestyle. Blogging is also a release for me - an escapism from hectic life.
2. Your favourite clothing store?
My favourite all-time store has to be ASOS. I love their style and they have something for everybody whether you're curvy, petite, with a feminine or more alternative style. I love their price points, designer ranges and their sales are something to get excited about!
3. Three makeup essentials?
I won't go by brand as that is far too hard, but I'd say a good under-eye brightening concealer; eyebrow pencil and a good quality BB Cream.
4. Biggest fashion icon?
Sammi from Beauty Crush (YouTuber and Blogger) and Barbara from Persian Babe (YouTuber). Their style is versatile, casual and chic with an edge. I blame many a shopping trip on those two.
5. Most adored item of clothing?
My recent H&M purchase, which is a black dungaree jumpsuit and as I'm all about versatility, I think that wins the award for that category. I can wear it in all aspect of my life; work, everyday trips out and nights out - looks great with heels as well as some great flats.
6. Favourite accessory?
Hard question! I have so many everyday accessory essentials, but something I do feel can completely change an outfit is a structured bag. Just adds that pop of chic.
7. If you were stranded on a desert island, what 3 items would you most want with you
iPod, SPF moisturiser and a toothbrush
8. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
Hopefully with a house that I've restored, a marketing related career located in the North East with three rescued dogs.
9. What do you do in your free time?
Honestly, my life is pretty mundane - I have to set time aside for blog reading, YouTube watching (of course). I enjoy a good walk around the local park a few times a week if I can, cinema trips, the odd cocktail date night and followed by some exercise to top off my day.
10. Favourite social networking site?
Twitter - it's where I get to connect with friends new and old and I get a lot of inspiration from it.
11. Most influential non-celebrity icon and why?
This is such a tough question, but for me, I'm going to be a big cop-out and say the blogging community as a whole. You guys have the biggest influence on my buying habits, motivation and inspiration. If I wasn't part of such an amazing community, even before I started Katie's Jabber, I would still be using facial wipes as my main cleanser and only using moisturiser in the morning *shudders*.
