The Q's given to me:

1.What’s your greatest blogging achievement?

Working out how to take the borders off my photos on Blogger, it seriously took me about a week to get the coding right!

2.Were your friends cool with you blogging?

Not many know about it to be honest, my friends that do know support me but aren't interested in blogs the way I am. My boyfriend is the most supportive.

3. What was your first post about?

My first ever post was about the box sleeved tees you see everywhere now (ie. "GEEK" in Topshop) I wrote it about five months ago and deleted that blog and started again, silly now everyone wears them!

4. Why did you write that first post? What got you into blogging?

I was inspired by how much I discovered from blogs and how hooked I became on them. Also I saw a possibility; using my blog as a platform to help those who don't know how to dress, and those with poor body image. There are many who look at photos of bloggers in Dolce & Gabbana dresses and can't understand the bottom from the top, or how that translates into what they can wear/ can afford, and so they move away from blogging as they feel it isn't for them. I aim to make fashion accessible.

5. What is the biggest drawback of blogging?

Not getting my uni work done!

6. Why did you name your blog what you named it?

Because I thought it summed up what I was aiming to portray: the season made simple!

7. What is your dream career?

To be honest I don't really know, probably something in education or mental health. I'm all for helping to nurture greatness and self confidence: how does that translate into fashion? You'll be surprised how much good fitting, well priced clothes can lift you up!

8. Did you enjoy High School?

Yes although it was an all girls school, bitchy.

9. What’s top of your Christmas List?

Dior 'Touch of Blush'!

10. Where would your ideal home be located?

Right now? New York!

11. What’s your ultimate aim with your blog?

To help one person dress comfortably, confidently and on trend- and not for the price of my left leg.
