Q/A – My 3 Blogging Tips I Wish I knew Before Starting My Blog & Do I have A Boyfriend?

Hi guys, so I finally got to answer your questions. I choose the ones which I think would be interesting and that I felt like I wanted to share with your guys. Some of you guys has asked some crazy questions, that left me shook haha. But it’s cool.

Blog

I really love your outfit photos, what camera do you use?

Thank you. For the last 3 months, my outfit photos have been shoot with an Canon 5D Markiii with a 50mm lens. Before that I used my Canon 600D, a really nice affordable beginner dlsr camera.

How do you edit your photos?

It depends on the post/photo, at times when photos needs to be edited fast (often my outfit photos) and posted on the blog the same day. I always use my favourite edit app, VSCO. It has numerous filters, exposures, straightening tool and etc, plus it’s so easy to use. But I always start using photoshop to edit the light, crop and doing small adjustment on the photos before I transfer the photos to VSCO where the rest of the magic happens.

What are your 3 tips for a blogger starting today?

That’s hard to answer. There is still a lot of things that I personally think I could be better at. But these 3 things would probably be the ones I wish I knew before starting my blog.

1.Be clear on what you want to blog about and make sure that’s something that has your interest. It’s a lot of work, more than what people would think and you won’t last long if you don’t have a slight interest of the main topic of your blog.

2. The design and layout of your design is also really important. It’s how people receive the content and it’s the first thing they knowtest when they see your site. Layout/design is almost as important as the content you write. One mistake I made, without knowing the consequences, was uploading to big images on my site. So my site had the tendency to crash which resulted in less traffic. And that is one thing you can also easily loss potential new readers on, is a slow loading site. So small things like that are very important to keep an eye on, as there comes more content/posts on your site.

3.Try to gain as much knowledge as possible on keywords, seo and all the boring nerdy stuff that it takes to run a site. Having your family and friends to read your blog is an easy task. But gaining search traffic and building your site up the right way to optimise the traffic through search is something completely different.

Fashion

Who is your favourite designer?

I don’t currently have a favourite designer. There a lot of designers like Balmain, Martin Asbjorn, Fendi and etc that I follow on Instagram that I keep my eye on. But not any that I would claim as my favourite.

How much money do you spend on clothes each month?

hahah, I don’t know. But it’s not as much as I used to spend two years ago. Thank God, I have learned to ask myself “do you REALLY need that”, before making the decision to buy it or just to wait a day. It really works.

Personal

You are absolutely stunning all the way around. I was wondering how tall you are?

Thank you, I’m approximately around 188 cm (6.1ft)

How long do you spend on applying make up?

I don’t spend that much time on make up, around 15-20 min. No longer than that. It’s usually the brows that takes the longest. I have found out less is more, which suits me the best. Don’t know what I was thinking two years back when I used to spend one hour on make up. Full coverage foundation, long eyelashes, highlight, layers of concealers and etc. A mess lol.

Have you ever considered being a model?

I have. I was, once signed to an agency which went through bankruptcy and since that I have never really done anything about it.

What Foundation do you use? Your skin looks flawless

My favourite foundation to use, is the M.A.C face and body in the shade . A nice lightweight foundation.

Do you have a boyfriend? and if yes, how long have you guys been together?

I don’t have a boyfriend. Single life 4 ever lmao.

How many siblings do you have?

I have one big sister, that I grew up with and three other brothers from my dad side that I have never meet before. I grew up with my mom and stepdad. So my dad was never in my life.

What kind of sports did you do as a kid?

lmao, this will probably come as a shocker for must of you guys. But I did different kind of sports(basketball, taekwondo, dance reggae) as a kid, but one that I did for 9 years was horse back riding. I was so into it and you couldn’t tell me back then that I wouldn’t be doing it today. I still love the sports, but I can’t do it halfway. Either the whole way or nothing.

Here is an embarrassing throwback, enjoy

Au Revoir, peepz!
