1) How long have you been blogging for? What made you start?
Let’s see, I’ve had my blog for just over a year but it was originally a graphic design blog with the occasional Lookbook post, but I never really got into it until this past September when I opened up my Etsy store, The Purl Factory. The blog started out focusing around my store, but I somehow wandered over to Tavi Genvinson’s blog and it immediately turned into a fashion blog with Lookbook/Chictopia updates, styling posts, Etsy features, and blogger interviews. Ever since then I can’t stop blogging.

2) How would you describe your aesthetic?
Hmmm….. eclectic, ethereal, girly, vintage, and lots and lots of layers and prints.

3) Your perfect outfit consists of?
Tights, a cardigan, a cute pair of wedges, a mini dress, and at least one of those things has to have velvet on it.

4) A Fall trend you can’t live without…
Velvet!

5) One thing on your bucket list you have to do
I’m originally from Detroit, I’ve only been in L.A. for 10 months, but I miss Detroit like crazy and there are some amazing things going on there right now so right now I really want to go back to Michigan and help make Detroit a better place to live. Oh, and be successful at things in my life that I love doing like fashion blogging, graphic design, and knitting/crocheting….. I know you said just one….. haha but I got carried away.

1. How long have you been blogging for? What made you start?
I’ve been blogging for 1 ½ year. At the beginning I just wanted to share my photos, but after a year or so fashion became an interest and took over the blog, haha.

2. How would you describe your aesthetic?
Hmm.. The looks that I “create” actually just pops up in my head when I see one piece of clothing. I’m kind of random when it comes to clothes, it does not have to be extremely modern for me to wear it. I like to wear different things everyday just because I like to change and always be in moving in some direction.

3. Your does perfect outfit consists of?
A perfect outfit Is a outfit where you feel comfortable in, but in the same time you feel like you’re looking good and that the clothing you’re wearing represents you.

4. A Fall/Winter trend you can’t live without……
Sparkly clothes, love it. Feel like I’m a queen ;)

5. What’s one thing on your bucket list you have to do?
This whole lookbook/blogging thing has giving me a lot to do. During the Christmas holiday, I don’t have any school stuff that I need to do, but I have 5-6 trainings a week and when I open my mailbox in the mornings I can have 10 unread mails. Of course I’m glad about it but It kind of stresses me out, so I should actually take it more peacefully, relax and do other things like just go out and photograph.
