you. know. me.

i was tagged by the gorgeous sarah of burn the blonde to take part in this "i love your blog - interview" that's been going around. so, here goes...

1.  why did you create your blog?

originally started this blog to accompany my small online store...to provide customers with ideas on how to wear the clothes sold at the store. blogged privately for a while with my own clothes while waiting for the next shipment of stuff to come in. finally went "live" so that my sister could test out my links, and in that time receive a couple of comments. wasn't until then that i realized there was this whole blogosphere out there.

2.  what kind of blogs do you follow?

can't say i follow any certain blogs, i like to read them all. but i mostly enjoy blogs of everyday people with everyday lives...with lots of outfit pictures. you guys are the best inspiration.

3.  favourite make-up brands?

i'm a drugstore person for the basics...eyeliner, mascara, lip gloss, etc. however, mac is my go-to for bronzers, lipsticks, and eye shadows when i'm feeling wild for color.

4.  favourite clothing brands?

i don't buy things for the brand. i buy what i like and what fits...whether it's from target or gucci. however the brands that frequently pop up in my closet are fighting eel for easy dresses like the ones worn here and here, and true religion for jeans.

5.  your indispendable make-up product?

i'm always powdering my face...currently using physicians formula's mineral powder for my sensitive skin. i usually choose powders that have SPF in them too.

6.  your favourite colour?

i have favorite colors for different things, but i seem to have purple things in my closet more than anything else. love the richness of jewel tones.

7.  your perfume?

haven't bought perfume in years. you know the people (men & women) who walk by and you go, "whoa!"...yeah, i don't wanna be that person. so i opt for lighter body sprays, plus people always give me body shop & victoria's secret stuff. i'm currently using the vs love spell body spray, but my go-to is calgon's morning glory.

8.  your favorite film?

i'm easily entertained...i like most movies. probably easier to tell you which ones i dislike. dirty dancing was an ultimate fave...swayze, dancing, forbidden love?! but a more current film that i really enjoyed was crash. go watch it.

9.  what country would you like to visit and why?

i'm a dreamer. i love the idea of cobblestone streets, sitting at outdoor cafes sipping on coffee. i used to always say France, but i guess any European country could satisfy this??

10.  write the last question and answer it yourself: is there any one fashion rule you stick to?

in general, i think there aren't any rules because nowadays anything goes. but i once heard that you should never wear white shoes...so i never ever wear white shoes. however, if i could afford them, these might be the exceptions to the rule...gucci bamboo clogs or louboutin minis.
