The Questions from Erica:
1. What/Who motivated you to begin blogging? I started blogging because I have a strong passion for makeup and fashion and I wanted to share all my tips, tricks and experiences with other people. I figured that a blog would be a great creative outlet and a fun way to share what I know.

3. What do you hope that people will get out of reading your blog? I hope they will find inspiration whether it be outfit ideas or new beauty products to try out.
4. Who/What is your style inspiration? I don't have anything specific that I look to for style inspiration. A few people whose style I admire would be Lauren Conrad, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie O. I also look to random people on the city streets that I encounter for inspiration, you can find a lot of fashionable ladies and gentlemen when you live in one of the fashion capitals of the world.
5. What is your favorite staple piece? My favorite staple piece would definitely be a well-fit blazer. You can do so many things with a blazer and they bring together any look.
6. Name one accessory you can't live without. The Tiffany 1837 Interlocking Circles Pendant that my boyfriend gave me for my birthday this year. It's so beautiful and dainty and I love how it's something that reminds me of him that I can wear everywhere.
7. Which celebrity's closet would you love to raid? Lauren Conrad!
8. What is the ultimate goal you wish to achieve out of being a blogger? I would love it if this could end up being a full-time paying job for me or help me land a full-time paying job in a related area like being a writer for a magazine.
9. Name 3 of your strengths or weaknesses: My three strengths are that I'm hard-working, dedicated and creative. My three weaknesses are that I'm a perfectionist, idealistic and a planner.
10. What is your favorite beauty product? My Urban Decay Naked palette. It has all the neutral shades I want and need.
11. What is your greatest fear? My greatest fear is living an unfulfilled life.
The Questions from Carolyn:
1. If you were to get a tattoo, where and what would it be? I'm actually very against getting a tattoo because I'm afraid of having something permanently placed on my skin but if I was force to get one I would get an infinity love tattoo on my wrist.
2. What's one food you refuse to eat? There's a lot of food I refuse to eat but one is duck tongue. It's so creepy!
3. If you could be a designer for any clothing company, which would it be and why? This is so tough! I think I would want to be a designer for J.Crew because they match my personal style of classic yet stylish.
4. What was your nickname as a kid? Where did it come from? I actually never had a nickname as a kid.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteThank you for the nomination!
ReplyDeleteNo problem(:
DeleteThanks a million for the nomination! <3 && You should definitely considering trying out some e.l.f. products, you're sure to find something you'll love. (:
ReplyDeletex
You're welcome! And I definitely will, I just don't like to order products from companies I've never tried online and the Target near me doesn't sell E.L.F so I'm just waiting until I find it in stores somewhere.
DeleteCongrats on receiving this again!
ReplyDeleteomg you got the wiiu!! My fiance and I want to get it soon...lol
Thanks! It's so much fun, you should get it. The wiiU console gets kind of heavy though after a while :P
DeleteCongratulations on the award!!! Your internship sounds like it will be an amazing experience. And I am 5'5'' too!! I think it's a pretty good height :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm really excited for this internship and I love being 5'5", it's like the perfect height for an Asian girl(:
DeleteThank you for the nomination!
ReplyDeleteNo problem!(:
DeleteI would like to be 5'5, I'm currently at 5'3 which works sometimes, but I really only want to be taller so that I wouldn't have to have pants hemmed all the time! Your internship will be AMAZING! Web marketing is what I would ideally like to do too. Sometimes I think I should get like 3 other degrees, but I don't think I have the patience or money to do it!
ReplyDeleteI still sometimes have to get my pants/dresses hemmed. I really can't wait for my internship, I'm extremely excited. I'm still not sure what I want to do for a career, one moment I'm pursuing bio and the next I'm pursuing business. I took my time in college to try out all the things I was interested in and this is the last thing I haven't tried. Hopefully I will be able to make my decision soon! And you have so many degrees! Working for one is hard enough for me :P
