1. Since you began blogging do you notice a change in the types of things you gravitate towards while shopping?
I have to say no, not so much. I do, however, notice a change since I started looking at others' style blogs. I probably wouldn't have looked twice at this Tucker for Target dress, if I hadn't seen it on another blogger.
BTW, this is a fun Google image search.
2. Do you find, as a fashion blogger, that you dress differently from your family and friends? Do they comment on that?
Yes, but I'm not sure if that's because I "fashion blog" or just because everyone I know is so different. Sometimes my friends and family comment on my clothing, but it's usually all positive. They're so sweet! (Well, most of them, anyway.)
3. What’s the weirdest fashion that you secretly like, even if you aren’t bold enough to wear it?
I don't think there's any trend that I like that I wouldn't try, as long as it works on my body. There are fashion trends that I like, but I just can't pull off - paper bag-waisted skirts/shorts/anything, big, floppy summer hats and cropped tops, to name a few.
4. Looking at current trends – what would you like to try but need to build up the courage to do?
Jeez, I don't mean to sound cocky, but again, there's not much I won't try. I'm not really afraid of making an ass of myself (proof). I believe if you have confidence that you look good, people will think you look good. And if they don't, they can look somewhere else.
That's not to say that I don't try something, it doesn't work, and I spend the whole day a little self-conscious about it (see the link above).
5. Toot someone’s horn – what fashion blogger out there inspires you with her bold fashion choices?
Hmmm...I don't want to leave anyone out! I'm inspired by a lot of fashion bloggers (and non-bloggers too!), but off the top of my head, I would say I'm frequently jealous of Kansas Couture's looks, I'm in the process of DIYing my own vest, inspired by Chrystyle of I LOVE ALL THINGS FASHION, I look to Sophistique Noir for a change of pace, and I really enjoy Inez of Style Chic...360, she's got great style and has introduced me to more inspiring fashion bloggers (including Chrystyle).
