Questions I Have to Answer:

• What is your favorite movie?

This is a hard question to answer, but it would probably be "The Devil Wears Prada." There's just something about that movie that never gets old for me.

• Who is your celebrity crush? :)

Cristiano Ronaldo. He's not technically a "celebrity", but to me he is.

• Tell me your top 5 favorite fashion bloggers and why?

1. Jane Aldridge- I love her obsession with unique shoes, and she's inspired me to start going  crazier with my own shoes. 
2. Doina Ciobanu- She is so young, yet has become such a big name in the European fashion industry, and she makes me believe that anything is possible no matter what age you are.
3. Dulce Candy- I discovered her through her YouTube and I love looking at her blog because she always puts together really trendy outfits. 
4. Tavi Gevinson- She's such an inspiration! I love how she wears whatever she wants and doesn't care what anyone else says!
5. College Fashion- I love checking this fashion blog everyday(even though I'm not in college)! 

• What's your favorite movie as of the moment?

Finding Nemo 3D! I saw that recently in theaters and I fell in love with the movie all over again!

• Aside from blogging what do you do? :)

I LOVE to go shopping, look at magazines, watch TV, play my instruments, and most importantly spend time with my family.

• Who do you look up to when it comes to fashion?

Blair and Serena from Gossip Girl! I am obsessed with everything they wear in that show. Their styles are complete opposites, but my style is all over the place so I can take inspiration from both of them.

• Favorite food & why?

I couldn't really think of any actual food that was my favorite (I love to eat anything) but the one thing I love more than anything is the candy "Raffaello." I can't even describe how amazing this is to me. It's like a creamy dream. If you've never tried it, the go buy some right now!

• Before you leave the house, what's one thing you ALWAYS have to bring? (aside from your bag)

This would definitely be my phone, but aside from that I always carry a lip-liner with me. I don't really love the feeling of lip gloss or lipstick on my lips, but if I just fill them in with some lip-liner I don't feel it at all and it lasts for so much longer.

• If you could have superpowers what would it be?

Probably the power to fly. I mean it would be great if I could just walk out the door and fly anywhere I wanted not having to worry about getting a ride or anything. 

• Why did you start blogging?

I started blogging because I started looking at other fashion blogs and realized that's what I want to do too. I love styling outfits and taking pictures so blogging was the perfect way for me to express that. 

• What inspires you?

This is a pretty generic answer, but pretty much everything inspires me. If we're talking about fashion, I love looking to personal style blogs for inspiration and magazines. Other than that my mom really inspires me.
